If you look a the charges, Manafort and his bud charges mostly pertain to things that happened before he was even associated with the camp0aign.  One thing I picked up on is that he was a paid lobbyist for a foreign government, without registering as such.  He laundered the money he was paid.  

I agree with MM that they will charge Manafort and then hope he will provide more information as part of a deal for reduced charges or a reduced sentence.  It'll be interesting to see who is next.  I think Flynn cut a deal, so he may be off the table.  But I wonder about Jared Kushner.  

Have to wonder who is next.  I had a wild thought - supposed they name Trump and Pence - and then Paul Ryan gets to be President.  Not that the Dems would love that, but there are others in Washington who would probably think that was a good deal.  I'm not much on conspiracy theories, but under the guise of legal investigation - who knows?
