James Clapper, the former director of national intelligence said he believes there could be "other shoes to drop" in the Russia probe, which took a dramatic turn on Friday after new charges against multiple Russian nationals and entities were announced.
"I think there are other shoes to drop here — notably finances," Clapper said during a CNN interview Friday night. "I think that's going to be another profound thing that's going to come out about this."
"What were the financial relationships between the Trump Organization before the election and the Trump campaign," Clapper said. He clarified that he isn't personally aware of any forthcoming developments, but highlighted what he called the "methodical, systematic, disciplined approach" Mueller's investigative team is taking with regard to the investigation.
Mueller is deep into a multifaceted probe of Russian interference, and whether the Trump campaign cooperated with the Kremlin, among other elements.
One of those elements is Trump's relationship with Deutsche Bank, which has been a subject of scrutiny, as have the financial dealings of Trump's associates, including Jared Kushner, the president's son-in-law.
As part of an inquiry of Deutsche Bank, US investigators have also reportedly sought information about whether the German bank sold some Trump-connected debt to the Russian state-owned bank, VEB. Kushner met with the head of that bank, Sergey Gorkov, in New York during the transition period in December 2016.

Clapper is evil scum.
The jig is up. Nice gig you had there Clapper.
So?
Is there enough evidence to convict Clapper of financial fraud or espionage in his dealings with China?
Hey Capper, pardonez mon francais, but no one gives a flip about what you think.
Git,o the traitor.
I don’t believe anything James Crapper says.
Thanks for putting up a post showing you don’t give a #### about such nonsense on CNN.
Couldn’t have said it better myself.
WAY too many here do. And threads like this keep the nonsense alive.
Not sure what the point of this thread is. Was CNN considered a NON BIASED entity BEFORE this thread?
If not, it’s so much overkill.
I don’t believe a word of this, except that Clapper is lying again.
If they had anything damaging on Trump’s finances, it would have long ago hit the fan. It has not, and therefore this is just an effort to prolong the inquiry and uncertainty.
Proven the Mueller probe is now a witch hunt and had nothing to d with “collusion “
Mueller has probably gone through 30 years of Trump`s financial business deals and tax forms looking for anything to keep their soft coup alive.
Imagine yourself having a platoon of lawyers and a regiment of accountants pour over your life. Think they wouldn’t`t find you missed crossing some ‘T’s and dotting some ‘i’s on your financial records?
“Orange Suit”
Bump!
If every politician in DC was investigated and scrutinized the way Trump has been The Swamp would be a very empty place.
Clapper proves once again that he’s a Communist.
He only believes in State run economies - a Capitalist like Trump offends him and makes him jealous.
In Clapper’s mind he’s way more important because he was a Made Guy in the Intelligence racket.
He’s no damn different then any Bolshevik thug who worked for the NKVD or the GRU. Birds of a feather.
My ancestors didn’t revolt against the English Monarchy to be ruled again by the very same people...like Clapper.
I’ve heard that clapper buggers baby baboons. Now I’m not personally aware of any forthcoming developments, but I like to highlight what I call his “methodical, systematic, disciplined approach” at each zoo visit.
Clapper and Brennon tag team treasonous idiots.
The antibiotic-resistant Clapper.
Clapper could be going to jail.
Clapper going down the Crapper with CNN
