“... a desperate attempt by Mueller to save his crumbling collusion investigation from complete failure.”

I am left wondering just how this can continue, when night after night multiple legal sources on FNC say that “collusion isn’t a crime.” So how is there any thought of any indictments for an action (collusion), that even if true, is not a criminal act?

Mueller was never going to take a collusion case to court against the Trump campaign. He was going to hand out enough legal speeding-tickets on small, seemingly related offenses to enough people surrounding Trump to create the impression of ‘collusion’ in the minds of Democrat & Independent voters. Heck most Democrats in the Media already believe that ‘collusion’ is a crime. All Mueller is doing is putting a few data points out there so that the Media can “connect the dots” and seal the deal.

This is all about keeping the DNC from going into free-fall collapse.

Collusion was used as a purpose for the investigation. Mueller is going for obstruction of justice.

They weren’t indicted for “collusion” .....

Mueller’s indictment against 13 Russian trolls claimed their social media political activity was criminal because:
- they were foreign citizens;
- they tried to influence an election;
- and they neither registered under the Foreign Agents Registration Act nor reported their funding to the Federal Elections Commission.

With those charges, according to the article at the link, others should also be indicted .... Steele, DNC, Fusion GPS, PerkinsCoie, Clinton Campaign ....
