  1. Tucker Carlson reaches for credibility?

    Has he got Paul Manafort doing reputation laundering for him?

    Maybe buy a golf tour like the bone-saw prince?

    Or an article gets written about Tucker in The Atlantic? Like Elon Musk.

  3. The KGB honeytrap compromised the ENTIRE right wing. Everything Trump says or does is from a #Russiafirst perspective and is #authoritarian rhetoric directed BY #Putin Progressives have known this from 2015/2016 #PaulManafort and #MichaelFlynn were glaring examples of Trump Russia from 10 years ago

  4. @elCelio @realjakebroe.bsky.social
    Thanks, but I don't think that's the incident I remember.

    A search online suggests it was a release of the indictment of #Felon47's first campaign manager #PaulManafort.

    But I don't think that was it either.

    But I do agree it was probably something concerning #Dubya & #Iraq (probably connected to #AbuGhraib.)

  6. An over 3-year US #Senate #Intelligence Cmte investigation found in 2020 that #Russia used Republican political operative #PaulManafort, the WikiLeaks website & others to try to influence the #2016election to help Trump's campaign.

    "The leader of the gang is President Obama, Barack Hussein Obama," #Trump said, saying without evidence that Obama's actions were treason.

  8. Added to the timeline Manafort's meeting with Kilimnik: collaboration with a political consultant known to work for Russian intelligence.

    (That Americans elected Trump again after what was revealed in the five-volume report by the bipartisan Senate Intelligence Committee is mind-boggling. Also mind-boggling is that Marco Rubio was acting chair of the committee at time of release, and went on to work for Russia in multiple roles in the Trump administration.)

  12. "A very interesting observation about Trump and Yanukovych, Ukraine’s runaway president till 2014:

    They had the same PR guy - Paul Manafort. He helped them both, convicted felons, clean up their public image.

    From Moscow with love, and a fresh PR spin for Kremlin-friendly goons."

  13. But even the facts #Mueller was able to produce, despite noncooperation from #Trump’s top lieutenants, were astonishing. #Putin dangled a Moscow building deal in front of the #TrumpOrganization worth hundreds of millions of dollars, & Trump lied about it, giving Putin leverage over him. Trump’s campaign chair, #PaulManafort, was in business w/a Russian #intelligence officer.

  15. Good example of how to cover the news accurately, by Casey Michel:

    Paul Manafort Is Back to Wreck the World

    Trump’s one-time aide-de-camp and bagman for corrupt foreign regimes is returning to his old stomping grounds, rolling back precious progress against a world of kleptocrats.

    "Instead of the broken, chastened man Manafort once claimed to be, he’s cannonballed back into the world of cementing authoritarian forces around the globe."

    The #ReputationLaundering fee does seem low. I think #PaulManafort made millions doing this stuff - and for killers of similar ilk to Assad.

    #NYT let its pharma reporter falsely claim #Mueller found “no evidence that Trump or aides coordinated with #Russia’s 2016 interference effort"… something that has been further debunked by subsequent reports that #Kilimnik was a Russian agent and that he passed on the strategy #PaulManafort gave him to other Russian spies…or the footnote…that showed the investigation into whether #RogerStone conspired in a hack-and-leak with #GRU was ongoing when Mueller finished…

  25. "At least three times now, Trump has interfered with those negotiations by vowing that Russian president Vladimir Putin will release Gershkovich for him and him alone. He said it in last night’s CNN debacle, where he also made a big deal out of the idea that Putin will do it as a favor, without an exchange of money. "

    “Such respect for a brave man.”

    A sitting president was tweeting these things.

    Also shown: Trump's tweets attacking Cohen saying if anyone wants a good lawyer, he doesn’t recommend Cohen. He contrasts Cohen & Manafort, a #loyal ally, & criticizes Cohen for “breaking.”
