Bank CEO wanted Manafort to secure him a Cabinet post in Trump’s administration, witness testifies

Trump’s former campaign chairman obtained $16 million in loans from a bank run by Steve Calk, who aspired to be Treasury or HUD secretary, according to court testimony.

What a piece of work! He thinks he is better than the rest of us simply because he can talk people out of money. No wonder Trump wanted to use him-he is just like him-he’s a con man. Just one that got caught with his hands in a very big cookie jar.

Mommie told me something very important happens in this building all the time. And right now there’s a really big something important happening! There’s all kinds of weird trucks that have huge water bowls on top of them parked out in front it this building, too! I can’t believe we live just a block or so away from it!! We go by there all the time and you’d never know how important it is! Oh!! We also found Wilson in one of the weird trucks!! Looks like he still may be a castaway though! BOL!!! #ManafortTrial #USFederalCourt #Wilson #WaitIsMommieRelatedToWilson #Castaway #seriouslysnofie @loraj0126 (at Albert V. Bryan U.S. Courthouse)

Manafort's defense plan: Pin the crimes on Rick Gates

Paul Manafort's defense attorney Thomas Zehnle told the jury his team planned to pin all the crimes the government has accused Manafort of on his longtime deputy Rick Gates.

Sounds like Manafort is taking advice from Rudy Giuliani.

But what about these facts?

Rick Gates pleaded GUILTY and FLIPPED on Manafort

For DECADES, Rick Gates was Paul Manafort’s “right-hand man” and  even his “consigliere.”
