It jogged my memory regarding something I’d read about Manafort’s work in Ukraine, not the work he’d done to rig the election and imprison and torture their Western aligned political opponent. This was something more recent, work he did WHILE Trump was in office.
After Trump won the election, the Senate report says, Manafort and Kilimnik worked together on a proposed plan for Ukraine that would create an autonomous Republic of Donbas in separatist run southeast Ukraine, on the Russian border. Manafort went so far as to work with a pollster of public attitudes towards Yanukovych, the deposed president. The plan would only need a “wink” from the new US President, Kilimnik wrote to Manafort in an email.
Manafort continued to work on the plan even after he’d been indicted on charges of bank fraud and conspiracy.
So, Manafort was very specifically working with Russia on overthrowing Ukraine, and he planned on leveraging his relationship with Trump towards this end. It’s also worth noting that his solution to his financial problems that started when democracy prevailed in Ukraine was to offer to work for Trump for free……after consulting with his Russian agent friends, of course.
This is a very good article, worth a read, the stuff Guiliani was doing was pretty damning as well. But Manafort’s work in helping Russia set the stage for war in Ukraine never got the attention it deserved.

Interestingly there’s a lot of similarity to what is happening now and the “Ukraine peace plan” Konstantin Kilimnik pitched to Manafort in 2016. This plan involved Russia recognizing the independence of Luhansk and Donetsk and with Russian military help installing Yanukovych as the president of the new Donbas autonomous region containing Luhansk and Donetsk.
This was the same meeting where Manfort shared campaign strategy and internal polling data with Kilimnik, and Kilimnik dangled financial incentives for Manafort somewhere in the neighborhood nineteen million dollars.
You can read about it in the section of the Mueller Report where he details all the collusion
