Tucker BOMBSHELL: Podesta Group Is In Mueller’s ‘Crosshairs’ Over Russian Influence
Daily Caller ^ | 10-24-17 | Justin Caruso

Posted on 10/24/2017 6:06:03 PM PDT by bigbob

Fox News’ Tucker Carlson reported Tuesday night explosive details about the scope of special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian influence in the United States, which may be putting the Podesta Group in Mueller’s “crosshairs.”

Carlson said in his opening segment that, according to a source Mueller is looking into the Podesta Group, a lobbying firm with close ties to Hillary Clinton, over spreading Russian influence in the United States during Barack Obama’s presidency.

Carlson said, “The central effort to extend Russian influence was focused on the executive branch, the Obama administration. The vehicle through which [Paul] Manafort worked for the Russians was a shell group called the European Centre for a Modern Ukraine. The group was supposedly based in Belgium but had no offices there. It had only two employees, both based in Ukraine.

“Their telephone number in Brussels rang in Kiev. It was a sham, yet it had a presence in Washington. The European Centre for a Modern Ukraine was a major client of the Podesta Group. Why did the Russians choose the Podesta Group? Because both Podestas were close to the Clintons, and Hillary was then Secretary of State. She could get things done for the Podestas’ Russian clients. It was influence peddling, the most obvious kind,” he continued.

The Podesta Group has close ties with Hillary Clinton.

The debunking of Hellary’s debunking of this story is well underway. Russians kissing the Clinton’s rear ends. There will be hell for the democrats to pay.

Donald is not going to be quiet about this, his Twitter finger is itching already. Thank God we don’t have loser Karl Rove telling W to “stay above it all”.

Prepare to be disappointed. Knowing Mueller & his team of leftist lawyers, this is just the equivalent of an inoculation; Expose the patient to a weakened strain of the virus to prevent a fatal infection later.

Just remember, big investigations take time. Abscam - which resulted in the conviction of six members of the House of Representatives and one US Senator - took over two years to complete and that was in an FBI/DOJ that had not been ripped apart by political infighting and partisanship.

Patience, as they say, is a virtue.

The investigation has broadened to determine which people and organizations in Washington have spent years working secretly as de facto operatives on behalf of the Russia government. The Podesta Group is chief among these de facto foreign operatives. ‘They’re are more focused on facilitators of Russian influence in this country, not election collusion,’ our source said. The Podesta Group is ‘in their crosshairs.'”

Have a nice day pizza boy...

Hill, how's that 2020 prezzy run looking now? .

Mueller looks very concerned - on how to hide his one.

Or what low-level person to sacrifice for Hillary/Bill/Obama/Comey/Holder/etc.

Many times in the Bible there are references to prayers for or statements that God will use a trap set up by those who are evil and they will be caught in their own trap.

Many of us Christians have been praying for just that will all the Dems have been doing to entrap Trump.

It is also happening with Hollywood - probably the deepest, darkest cesspool in the nation and home to the powerful and glamourous.

Dear God - please continue to engineer the exposing of the lies of the Left and all their minions, and trap them in the very traps they have set for others..........in Jesus Name, Amen!

And, there ain’t nothing we can do about it. There is something to be said about sitting by the river and watching the bodies of your enemies float by.

Well, right in the middle of this mess is Susan Rice unmasking hundreds of names with no direct orders to do so...

Also, look for little bammy to be getting quiet AND scarce.
