Manafort indicted? A no brainer. Will he turn on Trump? Hey, even Goodfellas squeal. (W)as he shaking? I wonder about you sometimes, Henry. You may fold under questioning.

A Diplomatic Fiasco The fact of the matter is that Iran is in compliance and the leadership has declared that they are not going to violate their agreement. So what’s the problem with yes?
