    Oh. Maybe Manafort IS flipping in the face of losing $30M under FARA.https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1040407422156857344 …

    John Kerry had illegal meetings with the very hostile Iranian Regime, which can only serve to undercut our great work to the detriment of the American people. He told them to wait out the Trump Administration! Was he registered under the Foreign Agents Registration Act? BAD!

        Family's there + a lot of friends. Anyway, since Manafort is gonna plead to FARA violations, Trump could be setting up the excuse for a pardon (everybody does it!) to reassure Manafort.

        So will Trump be entitled to Secret Service protection in prison? And do Secret Service agents have the option to decline the assignment?

        For him, FARA seems like a pretty esoteric term to be on his mind if that didn't just come up w/r/t the case with Paul

        If he can implicate Pence in this conspiracy, I think he should get to stay out of jail and in witness protection. This will cost far more than the $30M.

        After (at least) 15 mos. of legal bills + no new PR work, I'd bet Manafort can't afford to lose his pocket change, much less $30MM.

        OR Trump is just pre-empting his pardon with a "see, they are only going after MY guys! Unfair!". If Manafort was withdrawing from joint defense he would be nuclear
