Today I are learning that Tony Sirico, who played Paulie “Walnuts” Gualtieri in “The Sopranos”, died back in July. Which has me wondering whether the name was widely applied to Paul Manafort or whether it was just something concocted by spesh in the TЯump thread downstairs.
In a charging document released by authorities, it goes into detail about Manafort’s work for Viktor Yanukovych in 2012, who was running against Yulia Tymoshenko for president of Ukraine.The document shows that he tried to spread stories in the United States that would have accused a “senior Cabinet official” of being anti-Semitic for supporting Tymoshenko.The document says he worked with an unnamed Israeli official to spread the story and wanted to have “Obama Jews” put “pressure” on the administration to support Yanukovych. As part of the work, according to the document, Manafort wrote to “Person D1” as he worked to disseminate the story for media outlets in the United States.“I have someone pushing it on the NY Post,” he wrote. “Bada bing bada boom.”Naturally, Manafort’s use of “bada bing bada boom” was spotted by people online....Quote He actually wrote “Bada bing bada boom.” #Sopranos https://t.co/dX2ETM837B — Bruce Rheins (@BruceRheins) September 14, 2018...QuoteMatt Ford@fordm·Sep 14, 2018This is quite a paragraph from Mueller's latest superseding indictment of Paul Manafort.https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DnD1fg2XoAA-ipk?format=jpgBill C.@only_a_billReplying to @fordm"Bada bing bada boom"?Damn, Paul Manafort REALLY wanted to be Paulie Walnuts, didn't he?
