Wouldn't that be some shit if that's why/when he fired him? Yet another obstruction charge.

Question is, when did Manafort reveal it? Before or after Comey was fired?

Not only does it include a timeline of events, it has to include the relationship between those events and both media reporting and trump/campaign actions. Sort of "what did you know and when did you know it" on steroids.
