Manafort cooperation with Mueller has not led to damaging info on the President

Washington Times:
Former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort has not told prosecutors with special counsel Robert Mueller’s team anything damaging about President Trump, Reuters reported Tuesday.

Rudy Giuliani, who represents Mr. Trump in the Russia investigation, told the news outlet that Manafort is speaking to Mr. Mueller’s team “about a lot of things, none of which are incriminating with regard to the president.”

Mr. Giuliani also said he spoke with Manafort attorney Kevin Downing as recently as last week.

Manafort has meet with Mueller prosecutors about half a dozen times since the longtime political operative agreed to cooperate with the government in exchange for avoiding a second trial in Washington, D.C., Mr. Giuliani told Reuters.

Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
