The first charges have been issued in the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 US presidential election and possible collusion by members of the Trump campaign and arrests could be imminent, according to several reports.My I've searched, and found nothing definitive on who will actually be on Muller's hit parade.
CNN, Reuters and the Wall Street Journal reported that a grand jury has approved charges filed by investigators led by special counsel Robert Mueller against at least one person, and the indictment has been sealed by a federal judge, pending arrest. There was no information of the nature of the charges or their target. The reports suggested one or more arrests could take place as early as Monday.
That would take the broad investigation into Russia’s role in the election, which has hung over Donald Trump’s presidency since it began, to a new level, raising questions over how the White House and its allies would respond. Trump and his supporters have disparaged Mueller and tried to portray him as a sympathiser of Hillary Clinton and James Comey, the FBI chief fired by Trump.
My money would be on it be either Paul Manafort or Roger Stone, but we should find out in the next couple of days
But isn't this just another example of the Noun Verb Putin syndrome?
ReplyDeleteMany associated with this OMG Hillary is going to be president thing went and did things they would not normally do because of their hatred of her. I do know that hate is powerful and some people succumb to its ability to make them act irrationally.
ReplyDeleteMuller is a number of things, but a member of the Democratic Establishment isn't one of them.
ReplyDeleteBesides, seeing Roger Stone in handcuffs would be such a wonderful coda to Nixon's ratf%$#ers.
