We also learned that AT THE MEETING Mifsud told George the Russians wanted to help Trump by releasing emails, George expected to finalize a meeting. Meeting <> emails

We also learned that just after George told Manafort the Russians were pushing for a meeting, George told Greece's Foreign Minister that Russia wanted to release emails to help Trump.

Makes sense that George would try to angle for a pardon, but it's hard to see Trump risking any political capital on the "coffee boy." Plus the damage is done: a pardon won't keep George quiet; he's already flipped. He's very lucky if he only gets 6 months.

He didn't flip--that's what the entire memo lays out.

The Trump campaign sent GP to Europe to seal the deal. That is the biggest takeaway for me.

Not clear the whole campaign did. But that Greek meeting looks very different now.

It’s hard to reconcile the plausibility of taking off for Europe to conveniently run into Russian assets after the Trump campaign meeting.

There's so much evidence of a conspiracy sitting in plain sight. Hard to fathom how much Mueller must be juggling.

I stick by my theory that Mueller is letting them hang themselves publicly.
