Hill, the ^ | 03 August 2017 | Brandon Carter

Special counsel Robert Mueller has reportedly impaneled a grand jury in Washington as part of the ongoing investigation into Russia's interference in the 2016 presidential election, The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday.

Such a move would signal that the investigation is growing and entering a new phase. The special counsel is looking into Russia's efforts to influence the election and any ties between President Trump's campaign and Moscow.

Mueller’s spokesman declined to comment to the newspaper, while White House special counsel Ty Cobb said he was unaware of the new development.

Mueller continues to expand the team investigating Russia’s interference in the 2016 presidential election with the addition of former Justice Department official Greg Andres, who became the 16th lawyer to join Mueller’s team. Andres previously worked in the Justice Department’s criminal division.

But carefully avoiding giving the grand jury the information about the ties between the Russians and the Democrats.

Has there ever been a more corrupt Special Persecutor who ignores justice to serve the special interests ?

Either President Trump or Mueller will go. Let’s make it Mueller.

I guess we are going to have to split our nation into two entities.

We’ll keep the United States of America and they can turn the big cities into Democratland.

" Special counsel Robert Mueller has reportedly impaneled a grand jury"

Have Bill, Hillary and Chelsea gotten their grand jury duty summons yet?

Mueller should have been shit-canned a month ago. Time is not on Trump’s side. I think he knows that.

Eric Erickson said today on his radio show that the Mueller investigation is not about Trump... but about those around Trump who they evidently suspect colluded with the Russians.. namely, Flynn and maybe others in the Trump circle, but none of the Trumps are suspect of any guilt.. also Kushner is not either. He said he had inside information and then reported this, sparingly.

Eric Erickson...Is he on direct dial with Mueller?

If not, how would he know the scope and direction of the investigation?

This is the first case before a grand jury...may not be the last.

The country is already fractured in what appears, more and more, to be irreconcilable differences.

Nope.

That would be war.

They can start their own country of Democratland.

Without resources from the US, they’re at each other’s throats in two weeks.

Democraps are committing political suicide with this garbage. I thought nominating Hillary was the height of their stupidity but this takes the cake.

It’s a mini-justice department with just one client — the Media.
