The two guilty pleas will ensure that Manafort won't face a maximum of 60 years in federal time out.
Manafort admitted in court on Friday that he had committed decades of criminal activity on behalf of pro-Russian politicians in Ukraine. He also is helping Mueller in determining whether anyone in Trump's inner circle coordinated with Russian efforts to influence voters.
Manafort was convicted of bank fraud a month ago. Those charges could have him facing 30 years in federal time out.
This plea deal could have some of the charges he's currently facing dropped.
Manafort who is 69 years old had to forfeit all his assets and properties. He also was ridiculed for buying an expensive ostrich coat and toupees.
Manafort could implicate Donald Trump, Jr. Jared Kushner, Roger Stone and Julian Assange as the ringleaders. He could even turn on Donald J. Trump. He also could place Sean "Softball" Hannity in the crosshairs as well.
The personal attorneys for the imbecile, Rudy Giuliani and Jay Sekalow both dismissed the guilty plea as "nothing to do with Trump."
The White House said that Manafort is responsible for his own crimes.
