[CNN] A federal grand jury on Thursday indicted Greg Craig, a prominent Democratic attorney who worked for two presidents, charging him with false statements and concealing material information in connection with work he performed for Ukraine.
An indictment in the case against Craig, which originated in special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation, has been expected for several weeks, with Craig's own lawyers saying Wednesday they anticipated such an outcome.
Craig, 74, is the highest-profile Democrat to be indicted in a matter stemming from Mueller's work, which resulted in charges against numerous Republicans connected to President Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... . The case is being handled by the US Attorney's office for the District of Columbia in connection with the Justice Department's national security division.
The case is likely to bring renewed attention to the Justice Department's application of a once-obscure law applying to unregistered foreign agents.

Another one of those pesky "process crimes" discovered coincidently to the Russian collusion hoax.
[The Hill] Former Obama White House counsel Gregory Craig was indicted Thursday on charges that he made false statements to investigators and concealed information about his work for Ukrainian officials, the Justice Department announced.
Prosecutors said Craig was indicted over statements he made to the Justice Department’s Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) Unit. He faces up to five years in prison for each of the two charged offenses and will be arraigned at a later date.
The former White House counsel was reportedly investigated by special counsel Robert Mueller before the case was referred to the Southern District of New York and then back to prosecutors in Washington, D.C.
Craig is the first last only known major Democratic figure to be charged in one of the probes stemming from Mueller's investigation.

Actually Somalia was and is that bad!
Somalia is where the African Slaves are gathered before shipment to Arabia and the Muslim realms.
It has been a slave gathering place since maybe the time of Darius or before.

Note well, there are more Native Americans alive today than were around in 1492. The vast majority are not living in stone age conditions. Most tribal warfare is now limited to intramural sports.

A special thanks to the citizens of Minnesota for providing yet another proof of the intent of the followers of Islam to destroy western civilization.

Somalia is one of the countries listed in Trump's travel ban. Too bad so many of these people made here before Trump. Whose idea was it to let them come in the first place?

Have a war in Somalia, end up with a ton of Somalian refugees with no desire to accept American Culture.
