re: #293 Anymouse

Don’t know how I missed that when I searched the story for his name.

“I never had any contact - direct or indirect - with anyone associated with the Russian government or Putin on any topic, including the hacking stories,” Paul Manafort, Mr. Trump’s former campaign manager, told CBS News’ Major Garrett. Manafort, who was previously under scrutiny for business ties to Ukraine officials, also said he has not been informed by the FBI that he is the target of an investigation into the matter and added that he has not been interviewed by the agency about his activities, contacts, or conversations.

Hmmm.. that’s a change from earlier statements that he claimed he didn’t knowingly communicate.

NBC News just spoke with Paul Manafort about the NYT story on contacts with Russian intelligence. Here’s what he said. pic.twitter.com/qOovEnBRhB

He’s wading into the deep end without a lifeguard.
