President Donald Trump's former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, secretly worked for a Russian billionaire to advance the interests of Russian President Vladimir Putin a decade ago and proposed an ambitious political strategy to undermine anti-Russian opposition across former Soviet republics, The Associated Press has learned. The work appears to contradict assertions by the Trump administration and Manafort himself that he never worked for Russian interests.
Good thing Trump fired Manafort before he was even elected.

President Donald Trump's former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, secretly worked for a Russian billionaire to advance the interests of Russian President Vladimir Putin a decade ago and proposed an ambitious political strategy to undermine anti-Russian opposition across former Soviet republics, The Associated Press has learned. The work appears to contradict assertions by the Trump administration and Manafort himself that he never worked for Russian interests.
Manafort proposed in a confidential strategy plan as early as June 2005 that he would influence politics, business dealings and news coverage inside the United States, Europe and the former Soviet republics to benefit the Putin government, even as U.S.-Russia relations under Republican President George W. Bush grew worse. Manafort pitched the plans to Russian aluminum magnate Oleg Deripaska, a close Putin ally with whom Manafort eventually signed a $10 million annual contract beginning in 2006, according to interviews with several people familiar with payments to Manafort and business records obtained by the AP. Manafort and Deripaska maintained a business relationship until at least 2009, according to one person familiar with the work.
It isn't illegal to do business in Russia 12 years ago.
Where's the Tony Podesta questions? He worked for Russia in the last 2 years.
This is another not smoking gun, but because someone who once worked for Trump, worked for a Russian Tycoon who knows Putin, it must be part of the grand conspiracy.
Getting tired of my countrymen being so willingly dumb.
That makes it worse, people voted for Trump regardless of Trump ties to Russia The medias focused way too much on Trump's behavior and so little about his links to non friendly foreign entities

What does AP have to lose by posting the actual documents in scanned form?
William Reyes
Manafort is totally gonna get fired now for sure

Long term grooming just like the Steele dossier said

Meanwhile there was actual direct money contributions from foreign govts to Clinton campaign...
...evidence in emails where Clintonites talk about "pay for play"...
...Uranium deal...
...Campaign chair working for Russian bank...
...Campaign chair's brother employed by Russian firm to try and get U.S. to reduce Russian sanctions...
...But none of that is as newsworthy as "OMG someone who Trump fired did work in Russia 12 years ago!"
GTFOOH

Top tier source here. Several interviews with people familiar with payments.
>The medias focused way too much on Trump's behavior and so little about his links to non friendly foreign entities And that's how we can tell you are a shill. Media can't stop talking about muh Russia ties, even Comey said that their "classified info" leaked to media is often false. Literally fake news.

So for liberal shills is enough to confirm one bullshit story with another? Remind us what Comey said at hearings, shill.
Nathaniel Morgan
under Putin's Russia, GRU and SVR are the FSB's bitches Army secret services still own the most powerful Digital Intelligence tools SVR usually operates only on Russian's soil, they are the political secret services BUT all services have their own foreign ops If Politico talks about GRU that's certainly because they have official intel about that, counter spy services are pretty good at recognising who's doing what
Owen Gutierrez
Hate to tell you bub, but working with a foreign government like this is treason.
Eli Rogers
kremlin bots on damage control top kek none of Trump's entourage ties with the Russosphere are fake, most of them admitted those ties, what they lied about is how strong they were
Ryder Evans
Are you fucking retarded? FSB - domestic spying and counter-espionage GRU - military intelligence, like spying sats, spying on foreign military development n shit SVR - political intelligence, spying on foreign ambassadors, sending spies in foreign countries, "illegal" spying

>Russosphere Oh, so its not government, but Russosphere. What a play on words. Guess what they admitted did not imply any crime or lies from their side, but you are desperate to make it seem they are guilty.
>kremlin bots on damage control You think if you shit on Russia 24/7 we will just shrug it off? Literally everyone who cares about politics here hates you beyond words now, and if something is to break in US or Europe its not your side that we will provide help and supply. Continue to believe in kremlin bots, you are in for a big surprise for the second time, because you cretins never learn.

>The dossier is being proven more and more accurate as time goes by independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/donald-trump-russia-dossier-a7574536.html >It said the elements that had been confirmed were several conversations in the dossier involving foreign nationals. None of the conversations involved Mr Trump or members of his team. Look, if you mix some unrelated truth it makes all bullshit true as well! Liberal mentality.
Now remind us what Comey said about his investigation couple days ago.
Isaiah Martin
in that kind of investigation a lot of name are mentionned and many side affairs can be discovered that's why the Feds remain silent and only give partial infos
Ryan Rogers
That's why it's being investigated, to see what is proven and disproven.
Tell me what has been disproven from the dossier?
It's an ongoing investigation and Comey won't comment
Right, because if they DID, agents would get killed
Caleb Fisher
>Tell me what has been disproven from the dossier? Tell me what has been disproven from Pizzagate. Meanwhile 1500 traffickers arrested in 1 month, but FBI found nothing about Trump ties since July.
Camden Hill
A single victim, a body, a family member is nowhere to be found from pizzagate. More than 1000 of those arrests were from routine prostitution stings that take months to plan
Nicholas Roberts
How many arrests happened in previous couple years?
Matthew Cooper
Trump kids had business ties to Russia, they admitted it Those business contacts were established while Trump's kids were working for him Trump always had a strong control over his business, it's hard to believe he, at least, didn't know about those ties Mob bosses always operate via proxies so they'll never be caught, the feds knows that, that's their job
Benjamin Gutierrez
A few hundred every major public/sporting event since that's when pimps make the prostitutes travel to the event for work. The biggest annual one is the Superbowl in February, brings in the most prostitutes no matter where it is.

Cooper Campbell
Hmmm. really makes me think. I guess all that stuff that Hillary did in the 70s, 80s and 90s that Trumpfags constantly brought up is also of no importance either?
You have a campaign manager that is DIRECTLY LINKED to the Kremlin, and you use mental gymnastics to excuse it. Unbelievable.
If this was ANYONE ELSE, you would be ranting and raving about it, but because it's someone linked to Trump, you have to use your gold-medal mental gymnastics to defend it.
I don't think you guys can sink any lower.
Daniel Collins
If you read, you'll see that the document talks about a deal that's much wider that just NA politics but also about media, europe and ex-soviet contries.

I cane away from the hearing with the sense Democrats have identified the following objectives: - Seek indictments of Flynn, Manafort, Page and Roger Stone for legal, outdated or nebulous Russian ties - Discredit Bannon and Alex Jones by targeting Breitbart for harsh online censorship - Censor Google Youtube and Facebook by lining up major corporations to supposedly "protest" and threaten to withdraw the sponsorship
It's disgusting shit that unfortunately the majority of elected Republicans are not prepared to fight so we will have to as usual

And what's left to bump? All the fake news russia threads are being created by shills, even though trump supporters need to be on this. L Gohmert pushing for an investigation into podestas Russian lobbying for example to counter the attempted trump smear.
