Top Mueller prosecutor reveals 2016 meeting between Manafort and Russian national at 'heart' of investigation

One of special counsel Robert Mueller's top prosecutors said this week an August 2016 meeting between former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort and Konstantin Kilimnik, his old associate who the FBI claims has ties to Russian intelligence, is at the "heart" of the federal Russia investigation.

Andrew Weissmann, who the New York Times has dubbed Mueller's "legal pit bull," made the revealing statement to a federal judge in a closed hearing Monday, according to a highly redacted D.C. court transcript released Thursday.

He said the meeting, which reportedly took place at the Grand Havana Room in New York City and was also attended by former Manafort associate Rick Gates, is at “the heart of what the Special Counsel's Office is investigating."

Adam Schitt with a "f" D-CA announced many new investigations, because
 
1. He Wants to duplicate work already completed by Mueller, who has the goods on Trump.

2. He Knows Mueller is soon finishing, without the goods on Trump?

Andrew Weissmann, who the New York Times has dubbed Mueller's "legal pit bull,"

Maybe to the Leftists at the Times. To the rest of the world he is considered a bottom feeding scumbag who almost lost his license on a number of occasions.

This is not about Rep. Adam Schiff or Andrew Weissmann.  It is about Paul Manafort and Konstantin Kilimnik who has ties to Russian Intelligence and their meeting in New York City that was also attended by Rick Gates.  The article says this meeting is at the center of the Special Counsel's investigation. That would be connections between Russia and Manafort and Trump as Manafort was connected to Trump.
