Why did Mueller indict Kilimnick now??

[triron]

[Jersey Devil]

1. He is getting ready to squeeze Manafort like a lemon

Manafort's first trial will kick off soon and unless he wants to spend the next 100 years or so in jail he better make some summer lemonade for Mueller.

6. Manafort is holding out for a pardon

[Crabby Appleton]

2. The offense he's charged with

occurred between Feb 23, 2018 and April 2018.

3. He was involved in Manafort's attempted witness tampering

4. I think Manafort is refusing to turn on 45 so he keeps

piling on the pressure.

5. Pardon deterrence strategy

Manafort and Kilimnik are now co-defendants. If Trump wants the case to go away, he’s going to have to start pardoning Russians.

Trump can pardon Manafort, but the case continues without Manafort.

We’ll see how it goes down when Trump starts pardoning Russian oligarchs.

7. republicans don't give a flying f if he pardon's russians. Republicans don't give a

flying f if russia takes over our country and takes all their effing money and rights.
