From what I've been able to find, those names are mortgage lenders and accountants.

Of course it was fake. It originated from Roger Stone on an infowars segment. What else would you expect?

Heh. That sounds about right. All the other right wing outlets polish the turd to make it shine. Most Righties know they can't trust infowars but they'll trust other sources that parrot the bullshit.

So wasn't it speculated early on that Manafort had lied on several loan applications? If so then I would speculate that these people will testify that they knew he lied and approved the loans anyway, perhaps is exchange for promises of favors.

The last name worked for the bank in Chicago that was supposedly for "Veteran loans" that was trying to lend Manafort something like 2/3 of it's available credit in exchange for it's owner to get a Whitehouse position.

FoxNews has an hilarious take on the Manafort case right now:
"Manafort trial could reveal embarrassing details about Dem consultants"

Somehow this major trial impugning Trump/Republicans is maybe also possibly going to hurt some consultants that have kind of also maybe worked for Dems, too! And of course, it's not really Dems, because it's mostly about Bernie.

And repeating Roger Stone's bullshit on the same page-

LOL! Republicans have shown a fondness for being willing to take what ever hits necessary to hurt Dems. Are they willing to let Trump and his people take these hits if a few dems get hurt in the process?

I know the answer, never mind. The only relevant and truthful stuff to come out of all of this will be what hurts dems of course. Otherwise Manafort and witnesses against him will be coffee boys and liars regardless of whether any of it leads clearly and obviously to Trump.

I think Dems, in general, are willing to let the chips fall where they may. If Tad Devine takes a hit for past association with Manafort few tears will be shed.

He was Bernie's hired gun, anyway.

I don't think Trump's hurting in the polls, so who cares? And why would Repubs actually worry about Trump? They hate him.

They hate him? Is that why they voted for him? LOL

You should seriously consider career in gymnastics, I don't think anybody can do body pretzels like you do.

Looks like that's false. Here are the supposed names:

No Podestas in sight.
I was wondering what slimy stuff would Podesta have to do with the Manafort stuff. Now the email hacking that's a different investigation. People are making way to much of these witnesses. Probably just to provide corroborating evidence, not some shocking smoking gun.

Agreed. I'm not pumped about them even in the slightest.

I think this is in reference to Tony Podesta.

The Tony Podesta thing was a made up conspiracy within right wing media that conservatives got duped by the other day.

If you bothered to click on the article you would see who it was in reference to.

Yes, congressional Repubs hate him. The only reason they act like they like him is b/c all of their stuff would be vetoed back at them if they revealed their true feelings. Also, a lot of Trump's base resides in their states so they have to be on their p's and q's. They will backstab him the first chance they get since he dismantled tpp and soon Nafta.

Alan Weissselberg just got served to show up under federal court subpoena in Cohen trial. He's the Trump long time accountant. Bet he knows where some dirty dollar bodies are buried.

I'm surprised he's not under investigation himself. He sounds like the man behind the money laundering schemes for trump.

That's the name of the guy referenced in the released tape. Cohen says something like "I've got Alan Weisselberg working on it" (the sham company to run the payments through).

Just want to put this out there for the record. I heard it on the radio so no link & figures may be off slightly.
As of last month Muellers investigation has cost the tax payers 21 million and as of this month the Presidents Golfing trips has cost the tax payers 76 million.
Please feel free to update with more correct info.
