Congratulations on a great campaign, Devine wrote Manafort in an email after Yanukovychs February 2010 victory. You deserve enormous credit for pulling everything together, and for your leadership. It was great to be part of the team.

Tad Devine, a Democratic consultant who worked on Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) presidential campaign, testified that Manafort paid his firm $500,000 to work on Viktor Yanukovychs presidential campaign in Ukraine in 2010, paid in monthly installments of $62,500. Devine also received a $100,000 bonus when Yanukovych won the election. (Special counsel Robert Mueller has alleged that Manafort earned more than $60 million dollars from his Ukraine work during the period at issue and failed to report a significant percentage of it on his tax returns.)
