For clarification, no, per Fair Use Guidelines you cannot copy and paste the entire article here as that is a violation of copyright law. What you can, and should, do is copy the link to the original article so people can go straight to it and choose for themselves if they wish to pay to access the article or not (links to the original source should be posted for everything any of us cite from, actually). Is this the article to which you are referring ramage? www.wsj.com/articles/the-russian-indictments-1518825574ramage wrote: WSJ 2/17/2018:
“The 37-page indictment contains no evidence of collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign, but it does show a systematic effort to discredit the result of the 2016 election. On the evidence so far, President Trump has been the biggest victim of that effort, and he ought to be furious at Vladimir Putin.
Readers of the indictment will be amused at the comic opera details. In or around June 2016, for example, Russians posing online as Americans “communicated with a real U.S. person affiliated with a Texas-based grassroots organization.” This “real U.S. person” vouchsafed the deep political secret that the Russians “should focus their activities on ‘purple states like Colorado, Virginia & Florida.’” Sure enough, the Russians thereafter referred to targeting “purple states.” Someone actually paid Russians to collect this insight.
The indictment also makes us wonder what the Obama Administration was doing amid all of this. Where were top Obama spooks James Clapper and John Brennan? Their outrage became public only after their candidate lost the election. If they didn’t know what was going on, why not? And if they did, why didn’t they let Americans in on the secret? President Obama sanctioned Russia for its meddling only after the election.”
As in my earlier post: look no further than Boris and Natasha.

Yes, that link I posted shows the article I found by doing a Google search of some of the text you posted, and I am not a WSJ subscriber. As I mentioned with Fair Use Guidelines, if that website copied the article in its entirety without permission and the WSJ discovers it, they can (and likely will) issue a Take-Down Notice which means it could disappear.ramage wrote: SC,

Adam Khan Retweeted Malcolm Nance
Gates was Trump's Deputy Campaign manager, and was indicted along with Manafort on money laundering + illegal foreign lobbying. Gates knows better than anyone whether there was a deeper Russian or foreign influence campaign via Manafort, targeting Trump, GOP or anyone else.Malcolm Nance @MalcolmNance
With Gates turned state evidence Manafort will plead soon. He will give up Trump, Kushner & Trump jr for a deal. Mueller’s Money laundering end game could come as fast in 60-90 days. Does not mean impeachment but will open up Trump’s tax returns.

Special counsel Robert Mueller has reported a new criminal accusation against President Trump's former campaign chairman Paul Manafort.
Mueller's team said in a court filing Friday that it learned of "additional criminal conduct" claims against Manafort, including "a series of bank frauds and bank fraud conspiracies" relating to a mortgage on Manafort's property in Fairfax, Va.
The new criminal accusation came in response to a request from Manafort to reconsider the conditions of his bail.

BREAKING: New case from the special counsel's office. Defendant is Alex Van Der Zwaan, charged with making false statements. He has a plea hearing scheduled for today at 2:30pm
assets.documentcloud.org/documents/43821...waan-Information.pdf
Who is PERSON A?
Dear MSM & pundits Please do NOT conflate an Indictment v Information They are VERY different.
indictment = trial
Information means the defendant has reached: a plea deal waives trial and appeal admits to guilt typically they then become cooperating witnesses
Also MSM you are missing something important look at the header & assignment date
Pure speculation so take this with a grain of salt. Person A is Manafort Also look at the DATEs, August & Sept of 2016 1) Manafort was still serving as @realDonaldTrump campaign chair until Mid Aug 2016 2) Gates was STILL on Trump’s campaign
(i) “surreptitiously recorded calls”.
It was WIDELY reported that Manafort was wiretapped
I do NOT think Law Firm A is Skadden Arps my guess is it’s: Manafort’s original firm or someone in Trump’s orbit. Also Trump never cut off communiques w Manafort after he resigned
also some will say this Plea is in NO way related to Trump. Simply put they are WRONG. German Khan (FIL of Alex Van der Zwaan) is one of 3 suing over the dossier

In truth, this is just the first wave of Mueller’s indictments against Team Trump. More, and worse, is headed to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. The special counsel’s efforts to rope White House staffers into obstruction charges now take on different coloration as what they were trying to hide is coming into focus. At a minimum, events like the Team Trump June 9, 2016 meeting in Trump Tower with the Russian attorney Natalya Veselnitskaya—in reality, a Russian intelligence officer—ostensibly to discuss adoptions, look more sinister when viewed against the backdrop of the broader Kremlin conspiracy against our election. As do pro-Kremlin changes to the Republican platform on Ukraine that were pushed by Team Trump at the party’s mid-July 2016 convention in Cleveland.
Then there’s highly classified intelligence demonstrating that Donald Trump was planning on running for the presidency—with Kremlin backing—years before the 2016 election. Back in the spring of 2014, a European intelligence service, a NATO ally of the United States, received a top-secret report that the Russians would back Donald Trump for the White House in the next election. The source was a mid-level Russian intelligence official who had plausible access to secret Kremlin plans.
Moreover, this source had a track record of providing accurate information, so his Trump bombshell merited examination. However, our partners determined that the notion was so absurd—after all, Trump was a reality TV star, a mere carnival barker, not a serious person—that the report had to be Russian disinformation. The source was put “on ice” for several months and his information was not shared with the Americans, since our friends didn’t want to appear so foolish as to suggest Donald Trump would run for president with secret Russian help.
