(20,733 posts)4. Manafort's denial of culpability: "How am I supposed to know?"
This is absurd, he said. I have no idea what this is referring to. I have never knowingly spoken to Russian intelligence officers, and I have never been involved with anything to do with the Russian government or the Putin administration or any other issues under investigation today.
Mr. Manafort added, Its not like these people wear badges that say, Im a Russian intelligence officer.
