The FBI ALWAYS get their man. This is only the beginning of the Trump's crime empire's takedown. Last winter an FBI official was overheard telling a fellow official that he was convinced Donald Trump would spend his final years in prison. No one denigrates the FBI and other intel agencies. Anyone doing so ALWAYS ends up on the wrong end.
FBI Raided Former Trump Campaign Manager's Home

WASHINGTON---FBI agents raided a home of President Donald Trump's former campaign chairman Paul Manafort last month, a source familiar with the matter said.
The agents seized materials in Manafort's home as part of the ongoing Russia investigation led by Justice Department Special Counsel Robert Mueller, the source said.
"FBI agents executed a search warrant at one of Mr. Manafort's residences. Mr. Manafort has consistently cooperated with law enforcement and other serious inquiries and did so on this occasion as well," Jason Maloni, a spokesman for Manafort, told CNN. He declined to provide further details.
The so-called no-knock warrant, which was first reported by The Washington Post, was served at Manafort's home in Washington's northern Virginia suburbs on July 26, the day after Manafort met with Senate intelligence committee investigators.
The tactic appears unusual for a case that has been under investigation for months and for which Manafort has already turned over hundreds of pages of documents to Senate investigators. The Post reported that the documents seized were the same that Manafort gave to Congress.
Since his appointment in May, Mueller has quietly gathered a team of more than three dozen attorneys, investigators and other staff in a nondescript office in Washington. Officials familiar with the probe describe it as akin to a small US attorney's office, with FBI agents and prosecutors assigned to separate groups looking into various aspects of the investigation.
These include groups of investigators and lawyers focused separately on Russian collusion and obstruction of justice, as well as the investigations focused on Manafort and former national security adviser Michael Flynn, said a US official briefed on the investigation.
