Buckle up: The next five days could reveal how the Mueller probe will play out
Paul Manafort will know how long he’ll be serving in prison, closing the book on special counsel Robert Mueller’s most visible legal fight. Roger Stone will know his trial date, putting a timeline on when the public will get more details about his alleged contacts with WikiLeaks. And status reports are due for two of Mueller’s biggest cooperators — Michael Flynn and Rick Gates — that will signal whether the special counsel has tapped them for all the information investigators need.

But their confluence also represents the fact that numerous high-profile storylines of the Mueller probe are finally coming to their conclusion.
The centerpiece of next week’s action is Manafort’s sentencing. The punishment will put the final period on the case against Trump’s former campaign chairman. All eyes will be on U.S. District Court Judge Amy Berman Jackson, the Obama appointee who is scheduled to issue the second of two prison terms for the veteran Republican lobbyist.
