CNN Breaking News ^ | 5/9/2017 | van Perez, Shimon Prokupecz and Pamela Brown

Washington (CNN)Federal prosecutors have issued grand jury subpoenas to associates of former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn seeking business records, as part of the ongoing probe of Russian meddling in last year's election, according to people familiar with the matter. CNN learned of the subpoenas hours before President Donald Trump fired FBI director James Comey.

The subpoenas represent the first sign of a significant escalation of activity in the FBI's broader investigation begun last July into possible ties between Trump campaign associates and Russia.

No leak of Comey firing? Leak discovered? Maybe who was wire tapping POTUS too? Same Person? Now fired?

...."Something is going down..just dont know for which side"....

I figure Trump would not have fired Comey at this time and the way he did without also having other "ducks" in a row to carry out rapidly.....

I wouldn’t be so sure.

President Trump is different.

On my way home, I listened to a local conservative talk show host blast President Trump for not having his PR team in place to “handle” the Comey firing and issue spin. He just doesn’t get it.

The President acted on his schedule, not the politics as usual schedule. It’s like that old Star Trek episode where aliens are moving so fast that the crew can’t see them. President Trump is operating on a different level than the swamp dwellers are.

I can see President Trump holding the likes of Susan Riced to account and selling it to black voters as an example of how he treats everyone equally. Many of them will see the logic in it, and as he rebuilds Hellholes like Detroit and puts the willing to work in 2020 they’ll vote for him in greater numbers than the Democrat race hustlers can fathom.

They’ll always be those who cling to the victim card and won’t be reached, but they are beyond the reach of any Politician who doesn’t promise unlimited free stuff.

President Trump is going to defy conventional wisdom again and again, as he has to this point.

depressing to watch the Fox News Ticker moving across the screen for most of Hannity’s interview with Newt Gingrich, focussing endlessly on Schumer’s insane calls for special prosecutor to continue the investigation into Trump/Russia election interference allegations. Fox allows such News Tickers to go on so long you forget how it begins or where it is going.

no similar News Ticker calling on re-opening of investigations into Clinton email server.

"Federal prosecutors have issued grand jury subpoenas to associates of former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn..."

Don't federal prosecutors work for AG Jeff Sessions? What's up with that?

Dems don’t really care if all this BS destroys this nation. The well being of this nation never has been a priority for them.

I personally don’t see how Trump can get anything done with all the chaos their causing. The demos will never accept a conservative in office.

Trump needs to just keep pushing down their throats.

They didn't know how good they had it with the phony conservatives like Bush and Rove.

GW and Rove said they were bringing "a new tone" to Washington.

Now the Democrats have learned what bringing "a new tone" really means.

Lets hope the conservative newsanchors and their supporters make good on the promise to create a conservative news station. It will drive FOX to the right, regardless of the two Murdock brats and their concubines. The shareholders and sponsors will drive them.

Trump hit paydirt with Comey’s firing. This was a masterstroke.
