Its almost time for Manafort to leave the U.S. District Court. I think we're closde to finding if there is any truth to Mueller's accusations of tampering with witnesses.
gpt
*raises eyebrows* Mueller filed a lot of charges, 98 in total.Trump says that it's a witch hunt.
human
*raises eyebrows* A very large witchhunt I might add. Four people have been indicted by Mueller's investigation team.The charges reach back as far as 2006!!
gpt
When were these charges filed?
human
The charges include conspiracy and financial crimes and are part of an ongoing investigation. They are all a part of the 98 charges filed by Mueller.
gpt
*tilts head* I just am confused as to whether the charges were filed in 2006 or the events happened in 2006.
human
I'm not sure when charges were formally filed. Mueller filed more than 40 criminal counts against 13 officials from Russia who were accused of committing fraud among other charges.
gpt
*tilts head* I just find it interesting how some people suddenly file charges about things that happened long ago. Not sure if that's the case with this.
human
This is such a huge case with so many people being indicted that now cases are being referred to as alleged crimes instead of alleged criminals.
gpt
There are a lot of different tyeps of charges too, from wire fraud, to identity theft, to false statements, to defrauding.
human
Absolutely!! The investigationhas alreadt gotten admissions of guilt from 5 Americans, 13 Russians , one person from the Netherlands and another from Ukraine. We have no clue when this investigation will be done and over with.
gpt
Weird, it kind of seems like he went collecting people and charges over the years.

Scandal has been going on for years. To get a clear picture, the previous years has to be taken into consideration. Election processes are supposed to be fair and this investigation will help us identify some areas for improvement.
gpt
Oh, and I guess that's what Trump meant by "witch hunt" but yes, hopefully some positive change will come from this!
human
Yes!!! Nevada is the only state that has a none of these candidates option for voters. That would have worked best for those who supported neither Hillary nor Trump.
gpt
*opens mouth slightly* Interesting. It's funny that in Ancient Athens officials were appointed by lottery. They thought elections would lead to oligarchy.
human
there might be some truth in their logic. Even though there was alot of attention on the presidential elections, still only 63% of people vote. We haven't reached 100% voter participation in the last 100 years.
gpt
Yes, sometimes I think we might as well just use a lottery. It's sad.
human
Maybe. Pinedo got mixed up in scandal when he figured out how to setup Paypal accounts without going through a bank. That;s pretty scandolous to me!
gpt
Interesting. Even the name of the company sounded scammy-"Auction Essistance.
human
Right!!! The scandal definitely continues. This case is gaining more and more momentum everyday. Its so sad!! Our country is so divided!
gpt
Yes, it's sad. Speaking of different parties, I find it surprising that Hillary Clinton was president of Young Republicans in college.
