The Phony Witch Hunt continues, but Mueller and his gang of Angry Dems are only looking at one side, not the other. Wait until it comes out how horribly & viciously they are treating people, ruining lives for them refusing to lie. Mueller is a conflicted prosecutor gone rogue.... — Donald J.

Add to all this the story this morning about Manafort and Assange meeting...
Sources close to Paul Manafort and WikiLeaks both denied an explosive Guardian report Tuesday claiming the convicted Trump campaign chairman met with Julian Assange the same month he joined the Trump team.
Something big is at play here. Whether or not it’s what I outlined in the OP remains to be seen. But something is definitely going down. Add to all this the story this morning about Manafort and Assange meeting...

Let me get this straight. Trump was using a person being investigated, under FBI surveillance as a mole.
How would the President not know Manafort was under surveillance? It was in the news? Much less briefings?

Prosecutors: Paul Manafort tried to coach witnesses in criminal case

So the head of the executive branch who Mueller has stated is not under criminal investigation needs a mole? And is using a mole under investigation and surveillance? Because a person under investigation would have access to the secret workings of the investigation how?
What a stupid theory.
1. Manafort agrees to a plea deal, promising to tell all. However, what Manafort tells doesn’t just stop short of “all,” it includes deliberate lies and omissions.
2. In addition to giving Mueller a sanitized version of events, Manafort reports back to Trump on what the investigation is asking him, providing invaluable prep as Trump determines his own actions.
3. At the same time, Donald Trump is preparing to answer a set of written questions from Robert Mueller’s team. He delays and delays on providing these answers because … because he’s waiting for his inside man to reassure him that the special counsel has swallowed the “official” version of what happened hook, line, and sinker.
4. Reassured by Manafort that he has sold Mueller’s team on a carefully edited version of the “truth,” Trump turns in his homework.
5. And it’s only after Mueller has Trump’s answers in hand that he marches Manafort back into court and reveals that he knew the campaign manager was lying all along. Now Mueller doesn’t just have Manafort on record lying, he has written proof that Manafort and Trump were conspiring again to deceive and misdirect the investigation.
That said, I'm game for a conspiracy theory, but extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, so where is it?
It’s really a smart move by Mueller to make sure Trump or anyone else can’t keep these findings from being public. Whatever they may be.

My thing is, why would Mueller need to frame Paul Manafort? His corruption is a matter of public record. And not only in the United States.
On top of that, Manafort has already pleaded guilty. He’s already admitted his guilt.
And don’t get me started on Jerome Corsi.

WikiLeaks has since responded to the report by declaring its publication as the moment The Guardian let a "serial fabricator" "totally destroy" the paper's credibility. WikiLeaks is so confident of its claim, that it announced it's willing to put its money — and Assange's life — on the table.
