Let’s hope it’s a long list and they are starting slow.

Does anyone have any speculation on whY Junior is not being arrested? He kind of admitted that he was attempting to collude with the Russians did he not? Seems like it would be pretty easy to prove allegations against him

They may just not have their investigation of him done yet. They may still be looking for more charges. They may be planning the state charges so he can't be pardoned. They may not have anything to charge him with. This could be strategic in the hopes of getting more info by flipping Manafort.
It's a huge investigation and there are just so many things to be done. I am sure there will be more indictments, but they will take time to roll out.

“Conspiracy against the United States” sure doesn’t sound good.

Add'l state crimes could be brought related to that. No pardon. Paulie would go to jail after 68 years of soft living.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure Mueller had a federal pardon in mind the entire time. 1. charge Manafort with federal charges 2. get Trump to pardon him 3. get Manafort to testify against other people on federal charges (can't plead the 5th) 4. file state charges 5. ? 6. profit

No surprise. His attempts at deflection and distraction get more and more desperate. But hey, he only hires the best, right? (the best at money laundering and lying!)
