A former top aide to Donald Trump's presidential campaign will plead guilty to
fraud-related charges within days ? and has made clear to prosecutors that he
would testify against Paul Manafort, the lawyer-lobbyist who once managed the
campaign.
The change of heart by Trump's former deputy campaign manager Richard Gates,
who had pleaded not guilty after being indicted in October on charges similar
to Manafort's, was described in interviews by people familiar with the case.

"Rick Gates is going to change his plea to guilty,'' said a person with direct
knowledge of the new developments, adding that the revised plea will be
presented in federal court in Washington "within the next few days.''
That individual and others who discussed the matter spoke on condition of
anonymity, citing a judge's gag order restricting comments about the case to
the news media or public.
