I assume this is related to Gates' presumed decision to cooperate.New charges have been filed in Special Counsel Robert Mueller's criminal case against former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort and aide Rick Gates, but the charges were put under seal by the court, obscuring the nature and import of the development.
The new charging document filed in federal court in Washington could be a superseding indictment, adding new charges or even new defendants to the charges filed last October.

The entry was undated but the sequence suggests the charges were filed Friday or later.

Also, word is nut job Sam Nunberg will be testifying to the Mueller team tomorrow. Nunberg was a campaign aid who was fired in 2015 for allegedly violating a nondisclosure agreement and leaking confidential information to reporters. Trump wanted $10 million in damages. The case was "amicably" settled, whatever that means. I'm guessing it means Nunberg didn't roll over, so Trump let it drop.
He says Trump's circle "were all lying" about their contacts with Russians. Nunberg doesn't strike me as someone who could hold his own against a smart prosecutor. There could be lots of sparks. Too bad the special prosecutor team doesn't leak. But maybe Nunberg will go back on MSNBC and tell us what he said.
...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
