Paul Manafort's attorneys failed to properly redact their filing. They reveal that Mueller alleges Manafort "lied about sharing polling data with Mr. Kilimnik related to the 2016 presidential campaign". Konstantin Kilimnik has alleged ties to Russian intelligence.

(CNN)Lawyers for Paul Manafort will reveal in coming court filings his response to the special counsel's office accusation that he lied during his post-guilty-plea cooperation sessions. The details of their arguments are not yet public, but may be made public sometime Tuesday, according to the federal court.

That is called collusion, and obstruction of justice.

He is still in solitary, so he is under pressure to write the words that match the tune. IMO, any testimony he offers is even more suspect than a Russian witness.

It was always known that once collusion was established trump supporters would resort to this type of response. It's why trump supporters demanding evidence of crimes, and then evidence of collusion, was always disingenuous.

I think they can prove what his lawyers did...

Then they make insane theories and fail to give their own, and yell at us to research on our own and open our minds.

Collusion isn't a crime, so whatever is known is most likely a nothingburger.

Sharing polling data? That's a nothingburger.

Good lord. Anything to defend Trump.

He didn't write the words "I lied about sharing polling data with Russians". Mueller alleges that he did this, and we have to assume that if Mueller is indicting him for it, then he must have some evidence for it. You can't pretend that this is "he said she said". The courts will not allow this to continue without actual evidence. You can continue trashing our justice system all you want, but it won't change anything.

"We think the Trump campaign might have been in contact with Russians and getting assistance form them during the election"

"OMG, yall are dreaming this up! It's all fake news! Yall would be mad if he used russian dressing LOL!"

"Well, here is evidence that they had numerous meetings and lied about them, as well as sharing polling data and back channel communications, and were lying about business dealings in Russia during the campaign"

"Collusion isn't a crime!"

Right, but ‘conspiracy to defraud the US’ would be the proper equivalent to “collusion” and that is most definitely a crime. Collusion never was a crime, that was established long ago.

I've said from the beginning that it appeared the trolls were using up to date polling information to target their messaging.

And that that would be proof of collusion (conspiracy) if they could prove that was done.

So the plot thickens.

Good lord anything to attack president Trump! It works both ways..... :doh
 
What’s so significant about sharing polling data?

Google, Facebook, etc sell this kind of Information. It is their business.

That information helped the trolls target their messaging.

So "coordinating with a foreign power to defraud the united states" would be the crime. If a campaign shares polling data with a pac that's illegal coordination.

Ask manafort. He's the one that allegedly lied about it.

There's nothing wrong with me lying about being with my friends at a bar on thursday night, but if my wife went missing thursday night and they'd found out I lied to them when telling them I was at the bar on thursday night I'm pretty sure they'd find that interesting and look into it.
