      Breaking from @washingtonpost: Roger Stone says in May 2016 he met with a Russian man who offered damaging information about Hillary Clinton in exchange for $2 million, which Stone says he rejected: https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/trump-associate-roger-stone-reveals-new-contact-with-russian-national-during-2016-campaign/2018/06/17/4a8123c8-6fd0-11e8-bd50-b80389a4e569_story.html?utm_term=.3ff6c4597e8c …

      And note the discovery of this meeting Stone and Caputo tried to hide came from "text messages that Caputo said he no longer has in his possession but was shown during a May 2 interview." That's the period when people were discovering Mueller was checking encrypted messaging apps

          Note, too, that on March 9, FBI obtained information relating to 5 AT&T phones (and probably a bunch of VZ ones too), at least one but not all of which were Manafort's. https://www.emptywheel.net/2018/05/30/on-those-five-att-phones-manafort-wanted-to-learn-about/ …

          I've long said the best way to avoid LE scrutiny in this country is to become an informant, bc it takes you out of routine network mapping. If I know that, RU knows that. There are a number of informants involved here: Nader, Sater, and maybe this dude.

          Marcy, Could you put this in perspective? How big of a deal is this revelation?

          This is a limited hangout, Caputo and Stone finding reason to release one embarrassing detail while hiding ones that probably makes it clear this was not a one-off.

          Thank you. Shouldn't CNN fire him? He has been lying to the public / viewers all along? Screaming NO COLLUSION while hiding he tried to do just that.

          Stone and Caputo are smart to float the FBI sting nonsense. Standby for Andrew McCarthy, Chuck Ross, and Kim Strassel to fire up the conspiratorial columns and for Sean Hannity to pop a forehead vein during an epic tantrum.

          So Caputo was lying all along on CNN and crying foul because of his legal fees. Unreal. They should fire his ass.
