Indictment Is Just The Start: Mueller Probe To Continue “For Months”
Newz Sentinel ^ | 2-6-2018

Posted on 02/16/2018 4:27:40 PM PST by blam

The unveiling today of indictments against 13 Russian nationals and three Russian entities has raised speculation that Special Counsel Robert Mueller may be nearing the end of – or has effectively finished – his probe into collusion between the Trump administration and the Russian government.

But sources are telling Bloomberg that this isn’t true.

In addition to obstruction and the various financial improprieties of certain Trump associates, Mueller is still actively investigating collusion.

Earlier today, Trump tweeted in response to the indictment’s release that it effectively vindicates the Trump campaign, since many of the activities cited in the document began in 2014.

Russia started their anti-US campaign in 2014, long before I announced that I would run for President. The results of the election were not impacted. The Trump campaign did nothing wrong – no collusion!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 16, 2018

Instead, Mueller’s work is expected to continue “for months” with today’s indictment representing only a small slice of the investigation.

Friday’s indictment of a St. Petersburg-based “troll farm” and 13 Russian nationals should be seen as a limited slice of a comprehensive investigation, the person said. Mueller’s work is expected to continue for months and also includes examining potential obstruction of justice by Trump, said the person, who requested anonymity to discuss an investigation that is largely confidential.

A federal grand jury indicted the Russians for what it alleged was a vast scheme to interfere in the 2016 election and help Trump win. But Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein said at a news conference Friday that there is “no allegation in this indictment that any American was a knowing participant” in the alleged scheme.

This will still be going on in November, 2020. How much is Mueller being paid hourly?

What a pathetic joke. Someone arrest the “investigator” team and mueller and make them repay the tens of millions of taxpayers’ money they have stolen on this joke of an “investigation”.

More propaganda and virtue signaling. Have to keep the narrative alive that something will be found and this wasn’t the end of the investigation.

But these charges are ludicrous, Mueller’s found NOTHING. The press has been trumping this up (heh) with excited verbage and how this is all vindication but they had to point out that this was not evidence of collusion and the charges that have been leveled could easily have been leveled at Obama by the Israelis.

The GOP needs to hit back with the millions that have been wasted on Mueller’s investigation and shut this stupidity down.

We ARE winning - it’s high time we start acting like it.

‘Unnamed Source’ means Mueller’s indictments is the end of the line. End of the Witch Hunt.

The smoke and mirror show is just buying time for the culprits to escape, evidence to disappear and the track to grow cold.
End the farce!

Q DROP today......

“In an effort to preserve the integrity of all U.S. elections, as ordered by the President of the United States, after an extensive investigation in select counties (the ‘sampling’), the DHS has concluded that while Russian entities (as outlined within SC Mueller’s investigation were complicit in attempting to undermine the presidential election of 2016) had no direct impact or bearing on the outcome of the presidential election, nor were any U.S. person(s) knowingly part of such an attempt to sabotage as it relates to the Russian investigation, U.S. and other foreign entities (as further described within DHS[XXXX]), acting outside of Russian agents, did attempt on numerous occasions, and were successful, in interfering w/ the presidential election of 2016, senate elections of [x, y, z], [x] elections, whereby several million of illegal, non-resident ballots (the “irregularities”) were counted, while legal ballots were improperly tabulated and/or intentionally mishandled. We believe these actions were a coordinated attack against the democracy of our country.

The DHS will be submitting a final report to the WH/DOJ/other state and local agencies outlining our findings as early as March [ ], 2018. While this report only encompasses a sampling of twenty-two (22) counties across the U.S., it is strongly suggested, based on the evidence provided, that a mandated countrywide investigation begin under the recommended US50-EIC guidelines as set forth in Section VII of the final report. Furthermore, based on our immediate findings, we recommend the adoption of 8(E)(F)(G)(H) be made immediately to combat sources & methods currently being deployed to ....rest was blank
