Axios reports:
Court documents previously filed under seal with the government’s sentencing recommendations for Paul Manafort were made public on Friday. The documents include a months-long text exchange between Manafort and a “Sean” who appears to be Fox News host Sean Hannity.
In one March 2018 exchange, Manafort appears to offer a source to Hannity regarding a Russian-Ukrainian associate of his in Ukraine, Konstantin Kilimnik. “You should speak with Herritage on Kilimnik,” he wrote. “She has the info from others.”
It is not clear what, or who, “Herritage” refers to. Throughout the texts, Manafort and Hannity trade compliments, calling each other “bro” while repeatedly praising each other’s fortitude and TV skills, respectively.
WILD: The judge in the MANAFORT case just unsealed 56 pages(!) of what appear to be regular text messages between @seanhannity & Paul Manafort from 7/2017 through 6/2018.

8. Hannity asks Manafort why he doesn’t have a sweetheart deal like Rick Gates.
Manafort indicates that prosecutors would want him to give up info on POTUS and his family, especially Jared Kushner.

What is the chance that @FoxNews will spend one percent of the airtime on the Manafort-Hannity texts as it has burned on the Strzok-Page texts?
Never mind.
Stupid question.
