A word of caution, это пока информация только одного издания, и многие не уверены в ее точности.

Manafort held secret talks with Assange in Ecuadorian embassy Donald Trump’s former campaign manager Paul Manafort held secret talks with Julian Assange inside the Ecuadorian embassy in London, and visited around the time he joined Trump’s campaign, the Guardian has been told.

Sources have said Manafort went to see Assange in 2013, 2015 and in spring 2016 - during the period when he was made a key figure in Trump’s push for the White House.

It is unclear why Manafort wanted to see Assange and what was discussed. But the last meeting is likely to come under scrutiny and could interest Robert Mueller, the special prosecutor who is investigating alleged collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.

A well-placed source has told the Guardian that Manafort went to see Assange around March 2016. Months later WikiLeaks released a stash of Democratic emails stolen by Russian intelligence officers.
Мэнафорт направил Трампу письмо, в котором предлагал себя в качестве "National Convention Manager" в феврале 2016 года -- Read the Job Application Memo Manafort Sent to Trump.

Напомню, что Мэнафорт работал на Трампа бесплатно (!). В приведенной application Мэнафорт сообщает "I am not looking for a paid job" в самом первом пункте. Зная то, что мы знаем о Мэнафорте -- come on!

Мэнафорт официально вошел в руководство кампании Трампа 29 марта, 2016. Последняя встреча Мэнафорта с Асанжем, предположительно, произошла примерно в это время.

George Takei: So let me get this straight:

Manafort joins Trump campaign March 2016

Manafort secretly visits Wikileaks Assange in Ecuador, spring 2016

Trump elevates Manafort to Campaign Manager June 2016

In June and July 2016, Wikileaks releases Democratic emails

But...no collusion?
Трамп сегодня рвет и мечет: The Phony Witch Hunt continues, but Mueller and his gang of Angry Dems are only looking at one side, not the other. Wait until it comes out how horribly & viciously they are treating people, ruining lives for them refusing to lie. Mueller is a conflicted prosecutor gone rogue....

....The Fake News Media builds Bob Mueller up as a Saint, when in actuality he is the exact opposite. He is doing TREMENDOUS damage to our Criminal Justice System, where he is only looking at one side and not the other. Heroes will come of this, and it won’t be Mueller and his...

....terrible Gang of Angry Democrats. Look at their past, and look where they come from. The now $30,000,000 Witch Hunt continues and they’ve got nothing but ruined lives. Where is the Server? Let these terrible people go back to the Clinton Foundation and “Justice” Department!
Well, that does not sound unhinged at all. Но что вызвало всплеск эмоций Трампа?

Помните, что Трамп наконец передал Мюллеру ответы на письменные вопросы примерно неделю назад? И помните, что вчера Мюллер официально заявил, что Мэнафорт врал в своих показаниях, уже после заключения соглашения?

Bill Kristol предлагает интересное возможное объяснение: Trump’s upset and worried about Mueller this morning. Why? One reason could be that Trump said things in his written answers a week ago that were in sync with what Manafort was saying, but that Trump now realizes Mueller can disprove?
P.S. Просто понравилось.
