Remember: Manafort prosecution is easy bc 1) he's sleazy as fuck 2) most charges can be replicated in NYS 3) he's not protecting Jared.

Nobody is going to be tried for treason!
-
The last person to be tried and convicted for treason was back in 1952 and later "pardon" by Kennedy.
-
People were tried and convicted of conspiracy to commit espionage on behalf of the Soviet Union during the Cold war.
-
but that went beyond having a meeting with Russians to get dirt on a political opponent.
-
If Mueller investigation carried out to completion, I wouldn't be surprised to see such a conspiracy charge.
-
Which means these meetings went beyond what we think they talked about or did.

You might be thinking of different actions than I am.

Also, Manafort’s case is a paper case that will take two weeks to prove. It’s a follow the $ case. The others more circuits, difficult.
-
Three weeks, not two.
-
My understanding is 15 days.

Oops. Duh.
-

-
Several people I know made that mistake.

Sometimes I get ahead and take things a little too literally. Especially when I’m excited about DJT/indictment.

The fact that he's still interviewing witnesses related to Flynn's lobbying suggests there won't be an indictment tomorrow, no?
-
Yes. And suggests the story shouldn't have run as such.

Could this be a defense attorney signaling to other potential defendants, or not likely?
-
Possible. Or signaling to Trump.
