looks like manafort was doing the old 'pay for play' crime....wonder if donald was getting a cut?

(CNN)Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner is now officially part of the trove of evidence in Paul Manafort's criminal trial, as part of an email exchange with the former campaign chairman about potential senior administration jobs.

Manafort sent Kushner a recommendation to appoint Federal Savings Bank chair Stephen Calk as secretary of the Army in a November 30, 2016, email released Monday by the Justice Department.

At the same time, Manafort had received the first part of what would be $16 million in loans from Calk's bank, according to testimony Monday from James Brennan, the bank's vice president.

Manafort also suggested two other possible Trump appointees, Pat Sink and Vernon Parker, according to the email released Monday.

2. I was just reading this on Bloomberg. Remember when there was a sidebar in the trial Friday?

They were discussing the Caulk pay for play evidence. It was shushed during chambers meetings and the prosecution was then allowed to continue. I read somewhere that one of the reasons it was kept quiet was that there were other investigations into other people that overlapped the Caulk pay for play claims.

Are we getting close to a Jared indictment?

3. Why Jared?

Was Jared responsible for vetting/selling high-level positions?

How many mortgages did he receive?
How many bankers bought positions in the administration?

Lock them up.
