Turkish businessman Reza Zarrab, accused of violating US sanctions on Iran, pleaded guilty and will testify against his co-defendant. Zarrab's cooperation could affect Mike Flynn, who allegedly conspired to free Zarrab while lobbying for Turkish interests.http://thebea.st/2jsfWuR

Any k'ledge Zarrab may have re. Flynn's activities wd date from AFTER his US arrest. Likeliest possible source of k'ledge of a plan to spring Zarrab wd. be via Zarrab's Turkish lawyer's jailhouse visits ("sit tight, we're going to get you out of here. Don't cooperate.").
I keep making that same point. Would seem to put Rudy and Mukasey in the line of fire.

VERY interested in whether Giuliani & Mukasey have had any involvement in the case since the summer. From what I can see, they played out their 'diplomatic resolution' effort over the summer (after mtg Erdogan in Ankara in April), and came up short. Think they went to ground.
-
I don't see any other obvious way to get from Zarrab to Flynn and beyond.
-
But it would be awfully nutty for Mueller to go after an AG he used to work for. Gotta be some kind of conflict, no?
-
First, I don't have any info that Giuliani was anywhere near the '21' Club mtg. That wd. obviously be explosive. If there is any basis for prosecuting Giuliani, I don't think Mueller wd. hesitate,notwithstanding their professional history.+
-
Second, Giuliani was in league w/ FBI NY field office during campaign, and together they hung Comey out to dry. Think Mueller wd remember that mistreatment of his friend, Comey.
