Mueller: Former Trump campaign official Rick Gates 'continues to cooperate' in several investigations

 

>Former Trump campaign official Rick Gates "continues to cooperate with respect to several ongoing investigations," special counsel Robert Mueller said in court filing Friday.

 

>Gates, alongside Manafort, had initially been charged by special counsel Robert Mueller's prosecutors with money laundering, misleading investigators and other crimes.

 

>In February 2018, Gates struck a deal with prosecutors, pleading guilty to two criminal counts including conspiracy and lying to FBI agents.

 

>Since then, Gates appears to have cooperated extensively with Mueller's team. His most visible role as a cooperating witness came in August, when he testified against Manafort in his tax and bank fraud trial in Virginia federal court.

Looks like they had this one tee'd up for when Trump sent a tweet questioning the appointment of the special counsel.
