Hillary was right!
Meanwhile, at 2 AM yesterday (about 30 hours ago), this happened in the Texas Senate race:
Also coincidentally, it was 10 AM in Moscow, in the middle of the workday, when this happened.

Yeah I called her last night. She said it’s terribke and she can smell gas everywhere. Luckily she’s right at the border of Andover so it’s a different gas company for where she is. Told her to just pack up and stay at my grandmothers for a few days. She was actually supposed to work in Andover today but I doubt that’s happening.
It’s true in the sense that it’s what they campaign on. That’s pretty much where it stops. Conservatives don’t mind being judicial activists when it comes to stopping women from getting medical treatment they disagree with or throwing away money when they are in power

* The phrase "at the direction of the candidate" is in the plea.
* The conspiracy charge and obstruction charge still carry heavy sentences.

Somebody let 45 know that Mueller just more than covered his $7.7M investigation expenses.

Manafort pleads guilty in Mueller probe, will cooperate with prosecutors
Upon entering his guilty plea, Manafort will forfeit three properties in New York — his home in the Hamptons, a property in Manhattan on Howard Street, and a property in Brooklyn — as well as a property on Edgewood Street in Arlington, Virginia, according to the filing.
In addition, Manafort will forfeit all funds contained in four bank accounts, as well as a life insurance policy.Sarah Sanders put out a statement saying that this has nothing to do with Trump. However, Trump has been 'mentioned' indirectly in the plea.In one remarkable section of the charging document, prosecutors detailed the nature of Manafort's work for Viktor Yanukovych, who was elected president of Ukraine in 2010 with Russia's backing until he was removed from power as part of the country's political revolution four years later. In 2010, he was running against Yulia Tymoshenko, and prosecutors said Manafort worked to undermine Tymoshenko in the U.S. by spreading stories that a senior U.S. Cabinet official was supporting anti-Semitism because the official supported Tymoshenko, who in turn had formed a political alliance with a Ukraine party that espoused anti-Semitic views.
Manafort privately coordinated with an unnamed senior Israeli official to spread this story as part of what he called an effort to have "Obama Jews" pressure the Obama administration to disavow Tymoshenko. Manafort wrote to one associate: "I have someone pushing it on the NY Post. Bada bing bada boom."
