WASHINGTON (AP) — A former senior adviser to President Donald Trump's election campaign pleaded guilty Friday to federal conspiracy and false-statements charges, switching from defendant to cooperating witness in the special counsel's probe of Trump's campaign and Russia's election interference.
Gates, 45, of Richmond, Virginia, made the plea at the federal courthouse in Washington. He admitted to charges accusing him of conspiring against the U.S. government related to fraud and unregistered foreign lobbying as well as lying to federal authorities in a recent interview.
Under the terms of the plea, Gates is estimated to face between 57 and 71 months behind bars. Prosecutors may seek a shortened sentence depending on his cooperation.

Oh but QAnon says Trump planned this to happen all along! And Uranium One! And Pizzagate! And Whitehouse anonymous! And and!
100 criminal charges laid against 19 people from Mueller's investigation.
If this was Obama, Clinton or any Democrat this forum would be going bonkers. Outside of that it's a safezone for the cult of Trump.

Nothing.
Absolutely nothing that's been covered thus far has to do with their Machavellian little machination.
It's all been WHATABOUTISM.

Here's Gates being charged for some snip that has not a GD thing to do with.
Heres' Manafort being charged for some snip that has not a GD thing to do with.
