        Just read your post. So you’re saying Mueller has rendered a pardon moot in terms of trump preventing tattling. No in terms of freeing him. (State stuff aside.)

        Your contention is that Trump would pardon him after he provides testimony against him? Are we talking about some other Donald Trump who values loyalty to him and only loyalty to him?

        Para 14 of the plea agreement, the original proffer agreement was on Sept 11. So Manafort has basically been cooperating for over 3 days without tRUmp or Rudy knowing. On a related note, I'm drinking tonight.

        Yeah, Mueller's going to get everything he can as quickly as possible. But Giuliani suddenly muttering about the Joint Defense Agreement spooks me: maybe it's just muttering, maybe Giuliani slipping up because he reached a deal of "say this to Mueller and you'll get your pardon."

        A large amount of the good stuff Manafort has would be solely his own testimony about things like what was said at meetings and on calls. I presume Mueller already has quite the document stash anyway, so the oral testimony is the missing link.

        In other words, Mueller has the complete goods on Trump. From now on, it’s all about how to deal with a cornered beast that happens to wield presidential powers. A most dangerous moment for America!

        Significant that agreement signed 13 Sep 2018 rather than today? Is 10 Sep 2018 date significant - proffer date? There’s a sentence about information provided after that date in event he breaches agreement.

        Cooperation needs to start immediately, not Monday, now. Methinks solitary confinement won’t be secure enough for him now.

        They should at least keep him in a more secure prison pending sentencing for the first trial.
