This filing Mueller filed last night is just the first of two. The other one may have even more interesting details (and/or be accompanied by other actions).

This why the limited hangout Manafort sold WaPo on Kilimnik is a very stupid idea. Manafort kept in touch w/Trump, and kept in touch with Kilimnik at least through November. Manafort masterminded (or passed on) anti-Steele effort to challenge Mueller.https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/at-height-of-russia-tensions-trump-campaign-chairman-manafort-met-with-business-associate-from-ukraine/2017/06/18/6ab8485c-4c5d-11e7-a186-60c031eab644_story.html …

What the WaPo story DOES seem to make clear is Mueller is moving closer to going after Manafort's wife, who was involved in the money laundering/business. This has been predictably coming for a very long time.

My guess is Manafort is making a last ditch bid for a pardon. Q: If Kilimnik is a long time GRU officer, did Skripal know that? Did he cooperate w/Mueller on that?

If someone gets a presidential pardon but then his wife gets charged in all the crimes he just got pardoned on, does he lose spousal privilege (on top of 5A protection against POTUS)?

Of course this filing also suggests Greg Craig was talking with former or current GRU officer Konstantin Kilimnik in fall 2016. But I imagine he was pretty fucking cooperative by that point. https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4424937-Sentencing-Memorandum.html …pic.twitter.com/CSl6Xa2xbu
