It seemed like odd timing that Mueller came out with these indictments right after even the left leaning WSJ came out against him. I think that it will probably only cause him to "double down", and his staff will manufacture evidence if there is none to be found.
No. Weasel Mueller is running roughshod over Social Justice with his witch hunt.
I believe Manafort has some piece detrimental to the DNC/False Mueller charge.
They couldn’t find anything on the offensive, so they went on the defensive.
In my opinion, they believe Manafort knows something detrimental to the Obama regime. He knows some of the pieces, enough to sink their ship.
Obviously they hope to uncover similar money laundering schemes done by Trump.
“Consolation” Indictments. After all that attention from high $ attorneys, you don’t walk away empty-handed. It wouldn’t seem right.
One possibility here is that the indictments were rushed because of statutes of limitations that were about to expire on some of the charges. What lends some credence to this theory is that the indictment documents include references to alleged tax fraud and mortgage fraud that were NOT included in the indictment — probably because the statutes of limitations for those charges already HAD expired.
Gee, Ya Think?
Ten year old IRS beef, and that's all he's got?
She is wrong about that. He, George Papadopolous, has known about his fate for quite sometime as the unsealed indictment indicates he has been cooperating with them since late July.
Now he may have had no heads up before that, but then this is true of most who get indicted. Especially those indicted for lying to the FBI.
With Mueller...nothing of sort. I have yet to see one camera at his house or one Trump supporter with a sign following him around.
If not for statutes of limitation, I doubt yesterday would have happened at all. It seems way to short a period of time to start that part of the investigation. Watergate took 4 years and Bill Clinton’s investigation took 6 years. Muller saw the date getting nearer and nearer to statue of limitation and needed to take action ASAP.
I think Mueller is trying to put pressure on Manafort to testify against Trump.
Mueller was brought in to take out Trump and he can’t find anything. So he is trying to squeeze Trump’s associates.
I don’t think this tactic is going to work. There’s just nothing that can be used against Trump.
It seems like Mueller perhaps rushed his big splash onto the stage. As of last Saturday, Manafort had no inkling he was about to be indicted. Papadopoulos had no heads up.

Some privileges are reserved for Special People. Tony Podesta is a good example.
As I have posted previously, Mueller used to be a Marine officer, but it is apparent that the Marine code of honor wasn’t imprinted very well on his core. So after he became a lawyer in the Swamp, it was easy to become part of the Swamp where honor and integrity are nonexistent.
WELL CONSIDERING THAT HE IS ONE OF THE PEOPLE THAT SHOULD BE INDICTED FOR “RUSSIA COLLUSION” I WOULD HOPE SO
Despite what they say, deranged leftists hope dearly that Trump dismisses Mueller from the investigation. They hope to god him into taking that action.
Sorry for the football analogy, but I’m seeing a lot of posts here that smack of “hey, we may be down 34-0, but just wait till the second half. That’s when we’ll get ‘em.”
I think that Mueller would not have indited anyone until 2 weeks before the 2018 elections. However, there is a chance he will be fired or indited himself so he changed the agenda hoping it will damage Trump enough or get some one to spill the beans if there is anything of course. He knows his time has come too and his credibility is sinking fast.
Can Mueller grant “immunity” to the Demoperps? or does that have to come from the DoJ?
If you expect Mueller, the FBI, and the Congress to do the right and honorable thing you are a damn fool. The Deep State intends to destroy Donald Trump by whatever means necessary.
Wake up!!
Where is the “evidence” of collusion with Russia by Trump and his campaign?
