| First charges filed in US special counsel Mueller's Russia probe |
| 2017-10-28 |
| A federal grand jury in Washington on Friday approved the first charges in the investigation into alleged Russian meddling in the 2016 US presidential election, CNN reported, citing sources briefed on the matter. The charges are sealed under orders from a federal judge, and it was not clear what the charges were, CNN said, adding that anyone facing charges could be taken into custody as soon as Monday. US intelligence agencies concluded in January that Russia interfered in the election to try to help President Donald Trump defeat Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton through a campaign of hacking and releasing embarrassing emails, and disseminating propaganda via social media to discredit her campaign. Special counsel Robert Mueller is investigating whether Trump campaign officials colluded with those Russian efforts. He is also examining other possible crimes, including obstruction of justice, money-laundering and tax evasion. Peter Carr, a spokesman for Mueller, declined to comment to Reuters about the CNN report on Friday. |

| #12 It seems like a person close to the Clintons doesn't want to be tagged by them with the name "Dear friend and trusted advisor." IMHO, Slick Willy is a skirt chaser. Hildabeest is the vindictive one who compiles lists of dear friends and trusted advisors. |

| #9 It's all in the timing. The dam must have been close to breaking on all the Clinton/Obama slime and corruption. What ever this turns out to be its purpose is to bury all the coming evidence Felonius von Pantsuit laid the state department bare for a price and Barky and Mueller knew it. |

| #3 Did he name himself? I mean, if you live in a glass house and all that... I could trot out a litany of "Why we should lock Muller up for abuse of power" and protecting those that have it meme Very early Monday. Who makes them think they are above everyone plus hacking. Seriously, he is toast if he wants to hang on to this rotted canolli. Hey Muller - White Water. One word as FBI = Clinton corruption protection. You lied so now I have Four more investigations of just you. Resign assholio. Or you need TP for your bungholio |

| #2 The charges are sealed under orders from a federal judge, and it was not clear what the charges were, CNN said, adding that anyone facing charges could be taken into custody as soon as Monday. The timing sure is suspicious. I'm guessing these "charges" are so he has some thread to hang onto when they come for his job. |
