This indictment is nothing but a Mueller Dog and Pony show (see attached graphic). We already knew about Russian meddling in our electoral process. Most importantly, the Russians indicted are outside the jurisdiction of the US Courts and Law enforcement. Putin will never allow their extradition. Finally you can't have a trial or even a first appearance before a US Magistrate without a Defendant standing there in court. Sure the Govt can issue arrest warrants, for a lot of good that will do. No Defendant, no trial. Finally, where was there any Trump campaign collusion in the indictment ? Answer, none.

Motion does not equal progress.

#2 And hundreds of thousands of small credit card donations from Europe given to a particular candidate's campaign in 2008 which had turned off verification software were not widespread and coordinated effort to influence an American presidential election?

#3 The Russians have been playing grabass with our electoral process for as long as I can remember.

Need I mention the anti-war movement of the 60's?

Or the "Ban the Bomb" group from the 5o's and 60's who were all in favor of unilateral disarmament?

Of course, reading the article, I don't see anything the Russians were doing that Zero and Shillary (a well connected sadistic sociopath) were not doing with their nonsense and lies on social media and their fake news and smear campaigns of opposition.

#4 I found it interesting that the deal came out on a Friday afternoon which is when they typically hope to bury a story.

In this case right after a school shooting as well.

The story basically clears Trump, which might have something to do with it.

#5 One other thing, in the article, did you notice how they said that "the Mueller investigation is ALSO looking at Russian influence in the Trump organization" suddenly the collusion is a sidelight to this earthshaking investigation.

At least they didn't Scooter Libby someone in the Trump organization...I think Flynn skates on everything because of all of the irregularities in the process.

#6 Hillary was not mentioned! It looks like Mueller was the Clinton insurance policy. Muhller is a crook and the FBI DC nest of vipers should be fired. That will not happen if we do not vote in 18. I am not Russian;)

#7 So after all this effort and money and bullshit all they have is..

Inditements of a dozen or so Internet Trolls.

That's some top-notch investigative work...

#8 So when does Mueller foldup shop and go back into retirement?

#9 Mueller spent millions to indict a bunch of Russians for spreading info that caused discord. They posted stuff on FB. But they had no effect on the election. WTF? Even the Russians didn't like Hillary. The left is dumbfounded about her loss. They threw everything at Trump and still lost. They owned the MSM; they never gave Trump an even break--that is why Trump bypassed the MSM by tweeting. The left must have never watched the turnouts at Trump's rallys. I've never seen a candidate work as hard as Trump. Let's face it , Trump outworked and outsmarted the left and they are still pissed. Let's look at the real culprits in this election: The MSM, Hillary and the DNC, and even the FBI were all complicit. You can't have a guy (Mueller) running a Special Counsel who may be complicit with Hillary and WJC in U1. Let's shutdown the witch hunt and go after the real criminals who have corrupted this country for the past few decades.

#11 If the Rooshians didn't mess with Trump, that ain't the same thing as "supporting" him.

Like everyone else, they figured Trump didn't have a chance!

#12 #11 If the Rooshians didn't mess with Trump, that ain't the same thing as "supporting" him.
