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.

I guess Jake forgot about how Schiff had a Russian raise money for his campaign..OOPS I guess that is no biggie
Did not Clapper lie under oath before Congress?
Sounds like perjury, to me.
Ive heard that clapper buggers baby baboons.
Oh yeah? Well I heard that baby baboons bugger Clapper
in the crapper.
Oh, there is another shoe to drop, but it’s a cankle
filled high heel, of course now a days it’s probably
a high heel with a walker.
He's desperately trying to keep the focus on Trump and Russia, when he knows his neck is one of the ones in the ever-tightening noose.
So is Mueller keeping Clapper apprised of the inside Special Counsel information? I would think that would be a no-no.
“Think they wouldnt`t find you missed crossing some Ts and dotting some is on your financial records?”
The IRS could “find” something and their power know no bounds.
We made an error on our filing by 7 cents. Two years later we were notified of the error and billed for interest and penalties of more than $200.
If they can do that to the average person, who knows what they might find on a millionaire’s filings.
Amen to that.
I think Clapper is whistling in the dark. Wishful thinking?
Clapper is a perjuring SOB. What he says means absolutely nothing.
exactly.
Slightly related:
I wouldn’t be surprised if I had money in a “bad” bank or stock in a “bad” company. You have to put your money somewhere. There’s only so much space under my mattress.
Right and Mueller worked with Lerner to screw over Tea Party groups.
He clarified that he isn’t personally aware of any forthcoming developments.
So, he knows nothing!
Watch the news. Clapper is going to be a target and it is not for “Trump’s finances”.
If anyone is accused of collusion, it's the Clintons, Bushes and Obamas and all those in their Administrations, plus The House and The Senate...
Our President has done nothing, he was a private citizen and had his own business...do you see any of his buildings in Russia??? Nope...
But what you do see is the ‘reset’ button from the Clintons, the remark Barky said when he thought the mike was off, and the Bushes playing patty cake with Putin...
The ‘swamp’ is going down, it might be a slow drip, drip, drip right now, but it's going down...one drip at a time...
I have 100% trust in Our President, he and his Administration are the ones along with all of us Trump Supporters that are bringing Our Country back again, without the ‘swamp dwellers’ help...
God Bless America, her people and Our President...
This “seriousness of the charge” garbage gets so old. Got to double-down on their tired old worn-out playbook as desperation sets in after that nothing-burger on Friday.
CGato
This guy is a total scum bag. It is not against the law for Trump to conduct business overseas prior to the election, Russian German or Martian.
The Deep State ain’t gonna give up. I think we all know what it will take to stop them.
In other news, there could be a parallel universe with pink unicorns. There could be an invisible space craft from an advanced civilization heading our way. And there could be secret things Trump did wrong but everybody's mind was erased by lizards from another dimension so we don't remember them.
Sounds like wishful thinking to me.
Big frickin' deal.
Notice all these charges are coming from the "globalism" crowd who rejoiced at such deals before Hillary lost.
And who's checking the Clintons global deals?
We don’t need any evidence to make an ornament out of lyin’ Jim at the nearest Esso station...
