      2/ Mueller can't stop Congress from doing what it wants with Manafort's interview, so Manafort isn't claiming that Mueller blocked Congress.

      You might want to at least consider what happened w/SJC that very day before you make these conclusions.

      Is this issue potentially related to the instability of Manafort's representation, e.g., Miller & Chevalier disappearing him quickly? (1/2)

      What do you make of Burr's comment about his expectations of concluding their investigation by end of year in light of these new details?
