Manafort turned himself in on Monday morning after being indicted on Friday along with his former business partner Rick Gates, according to CNN. The indictment against Manafort and Gates contains 12 counts, ranging from conspiracy against the United States and conspiracy to launder money to making false and misleading statements to the U.S. Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA).

In response to this development, which many Washington insiders are speculating could be a ploy to get Manafort to flip on members of the Trump administration or even Trump himself, the White House has been playing it cool.
