Up to 25 years if convicted on all counts.

Pardon insurance plus making it a near certainty Manafort dies in prison. I assume some crimes were done in VA also...

I can see VA looking the other way. NY? BWAHAHA!
I wonder if Stone is liable in NY? Certainly Trump is vulnerable because if the Trump Organization is turned inside out then Trump is on the short list of controlling people. If the Feds don't do their job then screw them. States Rights!

I think the Trump Org, its corporate officers, and the Trump family themselves personally could have enormous criminal and civil exposures just on the state level. If NY state is waiting for the feds to finish their work before filing charges/lawsuits there could easily be a LOT more to come.

Stone has a residence in NY as well as the one on FL. The FBI also raided his apartment in NY and took a computer from there.

NY is already going after the Trump Org on civil grounds. This prevents Trump from divestment without approval and makes the destruction of documents a felony in itself. Like the Trump Charity, he potentially can lose his wealth, and then criminal charges brought bolstered by what is discovered in the civil part. They will also have Trump's tax and financial records in minute detail.

Speaking of possible indictments

It appears the SDNY may be looking into Trump obstruction.

It is also true that the SDNY is less likely to put up with BS and depending on the nature of a crime, the "memo" may fly out the window. An indictment may be on the table, although prosecution while in office may not happen. Trump can count down the days until his arrest. I like that idea.

Also it was reported this morning that the top prosecutor on the team, that Weisman fellow, has left the special council, so the investigations are essentially complete at this point. The top FBI guy and the top prosecutor, along with dozens of other team members are already gone and working in other sectors.

Looks like a couple of weeks or so before the report is out.

House voted 420-0 to make the findings public. Well, as public as they can be made anyway... Still some wiggle room for the GOP to classify the shit out of everything.

I think the Democrats got baited into voting for this. Regardless, everything about this investigation should be transparent. We should be doing this for every president elect or never doing again. We will never know what happened unless it is 100% transparent. I can't imagine any information about an election investigation that should be redacted. One side wants to know if there is something criminal not being reported and the other wants to know if this was a politically motivated shit show.

I dont think its complete man. I think the investgation was shut down as soon as the new attorney general showed up.

I think we’ll be left with more questions than answers. I can’t believe Jr mint and Jared didn’t get indicted.

Graham just blocked it from proceeding in the Senate.

There are still way too many loose threads and unanswered questions for Mueller to just wrap up and push out a report in 2 weeks:

- What's going on with that mysterious state-owned foreign company that saw dozens of sealed motions in December/January and went all the way to SCOTUS?
- What's going on with Jerome Corsi--is he going to be indicted? Did he avoid indictment just by retracting his Seth Rich story? I'm confused...
- What's gonna happen to Erik Prince, who is now on record as lying about not attending certain meetings with certain foreign agents? Is Nader's cooperation going to yield any fruit on what went down in the Seychelles?
- Whatever happened with Alfa Bank and that mysterious server in Trump Tower?
- What about the 18 (as of my last count) sealed indictments still sitting in the DC docket?
