Trump's former deputy campaign manager, Rick Gates - Guilty of Fraud
Posted by: sweetheart ()

A former top aide to Donald Trump's presidential campaign will plead guilty to fraud-related charges within days and has made it clear to prosecutors that he would testify against Paul Manafort, the lawyer-lobbyist who once managed the campaign.

The change of heart by Trump's former deputy campaign manager, Rick Gates, who had pleaded not guilty after being indicted in October on charges similar to those against Manafort, was described in interviews by people familiar with the case.

"Rick Gates is going to change his plea to guilty," said a person with direct knowledge of the development, adding that the revised plea will be presented in federal court in Washington "within the next few days."

Another guilty plea from a Trump campaign member. Manafort is going down too. Is it a surprise Trump, a man that fucks porn starts after having a new baby is surrounded by criminals?

Looks like Ricky is about to enter his plea. Rick Gates traveled with Trump all the way through the fall even after Manafort left.

Mueller is doing this all so methodically - kind of a vision to behold. If he has turned Gates, a high level Trump Campaign staff member, one can imagine that if there was any funny business Trump engaged in while Gates was there will be exposed. Poor Trumptards.

The adviser, Rick Gates, is a longtime political consultant who once served as Mr. Trump’s deputy campaign chairman. The plea deal could be a significant development in the investigation — a sign that Mr. Gates plans to offer incriminating information against his longtime associate and the former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, or other members of the Trump campaign in exchange for a lighter punishment.

According to the court document submitted with Gates’ agreement, Manafort laundered more than $18 million between 2006 and 2016, and Gates transferred more than $3 million to accounts that he controlled during that time.

[Special counsel Mueller files new charges against Manafort, Gates]

Gates is the third former Trump aide to publicly admit guilt in Mueller’s probe.

Unlike Manafort, who resigned from his position as Trump’s campaign chairman in August 2016, Gates remained with the campaign until Election Day, working at one point for the Republican National Committee. He then joined the inaugural committee as deputy chairman. Once Trump took office, Gates helped launch an allied group to support the president’s agenda and was a regular visitor at the White House.

We can be thankful for that and still condemn any illegal activities he may have engaged in outside of the campaign. Personally I never heard of the guy, but appreciate everyone who helped get Trump elected.

Makes you wonder how 2 money launderers ended up as Trump's Campaign Manager and Deputy Campaign Manager. Not just one-off's these guys money laundering and fraud were their stock-in-trade. How is it they came to know and be trusted by Donald Trump?

Hint:Follow the money - this investigation is all about money laundering at this point.

Manafort and Gates also were accused of trying to hide money kept in foreign bank accounts. Gates controlled as many as 30 bank accounts last year, including several in Cyprus in which he held more than $10 million, according to court documents.

All told, more than $75 million flowed through offshore accounts, the special counsel alleged.

A pardon won't save Manafort. He is guilty of tax evasion in New York and Virginia as well who if they brought charges would not be subject to a presidential pardon.

But it seems like a liberal law.
It’s almost as unfair as obama healthcare penalty.
It’s a bullshit law.
If u make money and u live have homes in both countries, money made in one country should have nothing to do with the other

It is a "liberal conspiracy" that goes back to at least the 1954 version of the tax code, and might go back to 1913. U.S. citizens and resident aliens are subject to tax on their world wide income unless that income is exempt by statute or tax treaty. Most states also tax their domiciliary and actual residents on their world wide income. The rules have survived numerous changes to the tax code and numerous court challenges. Since you have declared it bullshit I am sure they will change it.

If by 'liberal' you mean Nationalistic or sovereign I see your point. Manafort is exactly the reason you need to report income - if you are a foreign agent working for a Presidential candidate the US wants to know. Also if you are laundering money in the 10's of millions the US needs to know that too. So no, I dont think tracking criminal activity is particularly 'liberal' but at the moment 'liberal' means anyone that is a threat to Trump. Like lifetime Republican and decorated marine Mueller...
