Special counsel Robert Mueller is investigating Democratic lobbyist Tony Podesta and the Podesta Group, according to an NBC News report.

Mueller, who is leading the investigation into Russia’s attempts to meddle in the U.S. presidential election, is reportedly probing the firm to determine whether it violated the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) in its work for the European Centre for a Modern Ukraine (ECFMU). The nonprofit ECFMU was part of a public relations campaign run by President Trump's former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, to bolster Ukraine’s reputation.

Dittoes. The fact that Tony has quit his own firm is very telling.

The dominoes have started to fall here folks.

What is the Podesta document, servo?

I thought I was up on most of it, but I haven’t seen anything like this...?

Thanks.

He’ll find that while Podesta clearly broke the law, he believes there was no intent to do so, and so “no prosecutor would ever take the case.”

Tony and John are inseparable as principals of the Podesta Group. If one is guilty of something, BOTH are guilty.

Podesta is cutting a plea deal by telling Mueller what he wants to make up about Trump.

He’s “investigating” Podesta so he can “clear” Podesta.

That's what I think...

Not long ago unsourced ‘news,’ was called “fake.” Now the Trump-hating moonbat Leftists at ABC report what people want to hear, and it’s 100 percent legit.

Whatever.

POLITICO: Democratic power lobbyist Tony Podesta, founder of the Podesta Group, is stepping down from the firm that bears his name after coming under investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller.

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

No idea. This could be total BS.

Thanks for posting this. It is credible and quite revealing. LS, you deserve a lot of credit. That said, Mueller appeared to be doing the bidding of Obama-Clinton and bowed out based on what appears to be good instincts.

Or, he is watching things unfold now and is hedging his bet. However, to LS’s credit, we need only connect the dots that it was President Trump that HIRED Mueller, to make a strong inference that Bob Mueller has been after the true corruption all along.

I retract all my statements about Mueller. I was played by a much better actor than I could ever be. Well Done LS!

Exactly what our LS was saying yesterday. Too bad the chorus of doubters chased him off FR. He was a valuable analyst for us.

I wonder if Tony might explain John’s email wanting to kill whoever leaked their emails? Seth Rich?
