Quote:New criminal charges have been filed under seal in special counsel Robert Mueller 's case against former Trump campaign officials Paul Manafort and Rick Gates, multiple outlets reported Wednesday.

The charges, first reported by Politico, were put under seal by Judge Amy Berman, barring details about the charges themselves from public view.


The development follows the special counsel's recent discovery of alleged "additional criminal conduct" articulated in a court document sent from the prosecutor's office on Friday.

In that filing, Manafort and Gates were accused of "a series of bank frauds and bank fraud conspiracies." Some of those bank frauds are related to properties that Manafort is seeking to pledge as collateral in lieu of a $10 million bail bond, the special counsel said.

Mueller's office said the three properties Manafort put up for bail are insufficient substitutes for the bond.

"The bail package that Manafort proposes is far less than the $10 million that he alleges in his supplemental memorandum, and the difference is not made up by any surety," the special counsel said.

One of those properties is Manafort's Manhattan apartment in Trump Tower, which Mueller said is at risk of bank foreclosure.

At another, a property in Fairfax, Virginia, Manafort is alleged to have acquired a mortgage "from The Federal Savings Bank through a series of false and fraudulent representations to The Federal Savings Bank." Manafort previously claimed that the property had no mortgage, Mueller said.

Manafort and Gates were indicted by the special counsel in October 2017 on multiple charges, including conspiracy to launder money, lying to federal investigators and failure to register as foreign agents in their work on behalf of a pro-Russia Ukraine party.

Manafort is a lobbyist deeply connected to the governments of Russia and Ukraine who also served as then-candidate Donald Trump 's campaign chief for a time. Gates, who was Manafort's longtime associate, also worked on the Trump campaign.

Lawyers for Manafort and Gates, and a spokesman for the office of the special counsel, did not immediately respond to CNBC's requests for comment.

Now I'm a little confused. Why do we keep seeing a drip drip drip of charges?

Perhaps this is why you are confused

Is this about Russian Collusion or Manaforts laundering?

Its about Mueller's illegal leaking of sealed court documents about Manafort's money laundering and possible bank fraud (false information when he got a mortgage on his house).

IF Trump is ever tied to the Russians, My guess is it'll be around money. Manafort's indictments could be meaningful in that regard.

The walls continue to close in on tony pedosta, skippy, and ultimately hillary.

Spin Room doesn't recognize Fake News?

So let me get the story straight now..

First Trump colluded with Russians to win.
Then people begged electorals to not vote Trump.
Then people claimed he was mentally unstable.
Then the dossier dropped claiming the Russians were blackmailing him.
Then it was obstruction.
Now it's money laundering for business favors.

But in the meantime, he's lowered taxes, helped bring businesses back, boosted the economy, on the verge of getting something done on immigration, working on a infrastructure package, pulled out of Paris Accords, threatened to pull out of NATO if people don't pull their weight, and defended and got rid of the tax penalty known as Obamacare.

Think of what he could do if the bullspit about him cheating would go away.

I mean what a jerk. He's done nothing but played golf the last year.

Yeah! Trumps going down! They be really squeezing ole mannyport now! Wait....if he was cooperative with the Trumphunt why are they squeezing him more on his bail request?
Truth is Mueller has nothing and is pulling out all of the last bits of BS out his asss. Desperate to get someone, anyone to say something, anything. Doesn’t have to prove it’s true just get something the dems can scream impeachment over.

Second time I've seen this mentioned this afternoon. Is this the Trump crime-that-will-get-him-impeached du jour?

The libs in their private room have been discussing talking points and common responses.

Nope, just great minds think alike.
