Democratic power lobbyist Tony Podesta, founder of the Podesta Group, is stepping down from the lobbying shop that bears his name after coming under investigation by Special Prosecutor Robert Mueller.

Podesta announced his decision during a firm-wide meeting Monday morning and is alerting clients of his impending departure.

Podesta is handing over full operational and financial control to longtime firm CEO Kimberley Fritts, according to multiple sources with knowledge of the meeting.

One has to wonder why the same charges were not brought up when Manafort’s were. Giving Tony a chance to run?

And that will be that. Podesta will step down, Manafort will do 15 years hard time.

All these people have to do is say they got an e-mail from Hillary telling them not to report the contacts.
