Greg Craig’s indictment back in April put K Street on edge as the government’s crackdown on unregistered foreign agents appeared to be heating up. So now what?
Paul Manafort’s former campaign chairman, being indicted in 2017 on charges of violating the previously rarely enforced Foreign Agents Registrations Act, and the Justice Department hiring’s team, to head its FARA unit.
