Manafort lied about $125,000 in legal bills. he also lied about another probe, we have no idea what that is, thats just hanging out there. but on the interactions with konstantin kilimnik, a man with ties to russia intelligence, russian policy, and we know that the mueller team says this was central, part of the core, of the russia investigation. >> there are two main possibilities for why he lied about kilimnik. one is that he was trying to engrashia engrashiant himself with kilimnik and the ru...

Financial crimes and had agreed to cooperate with the mueller investigation. the judge issued an order saying that manafort lied in three of those topics and that the lies were, quote, material to the investigation. two of those lies the judge said had to do with manaforts former business associate, konstanin kilimnick. prosecutors allege that kilimnick is an operative with russian intelligence and say that manafort shared sensitive polling data with kilimnick during a meet last year at a cigar ...

Meetings with someone linked to russian intelligence with whom he shared polling data and conversations about pro russian policy. he lied about this after he had already reached a plea deal. that plea deal is now a dead letter. manafort is in even bigger trouble facing an even stiffer sentence, but most of tall gets to t all it gets to the bigger question of why. we will discuss that. and on the eve of a deadline to avoid a second government shutdown, the house and the senate expected to vote ...

Which they can use in social media. that is closing the circle potentially between the trump campaign and russian interests which is collusion. >> lets talk about bowling down, polling data gets released to reporters all the time. granted not to the russians. no question about that. lets not talk about it as something so intrinsic to a campaign that it never makes it in the public campaign. if its good for the candidate, it makes its way in the public domain. >> thank you very much. we have more...

Russian. this is a figure who is uncredibly important to the investigation, we think. his ties to multiple russian oligarchs. this is a figure that we know from paul manaforts inability to use technology correctly, that he leaked polling data to in the midst of the campaign. and we also know that bob mueller in court filings has assessed that u.s. intelligence believes that this is someone who is tied to russian intelligence in the midst of 2016. so this is in many ways the key figure on the oth...

Learning what we learned from the judge yesterday, after seeing all of this, what really sticks out to you? >> well, the question is by august of 2016, paul manafort was not at that point the chairman of the trump campaign. so the big question is did the candidate donald trump know at the time what paul manafort was doing, that he was providing polling data, that he was talking about potential policy issues that the trump presidency, if it became that, would adopt. and so thats the question. bec...
