The special counsel's office said Friday that a federal grand jury indicted 13 Russian nationals and three Russian entities in the probe into Russian interference in the 2016 elections.
The indictment says that the defendants allegedly, by early to mid 2016, were "supporting the presidential campaign of then-candidate Donald J. Trump ... and disparaging Hillary Clinton."
An announcement from special counsel Robert Mueller's office said that the government accuses all the defendants of conspiracy to defraud the United States. Three defendants are charged with conspiracy to commit wire fraud and bank fraud. Five defendants are charged with aggravated identity theft.
What about all the foreign celebrities who campaigned for Hillary? Is that not collusion?
Darn tootin !
What about all the foreign celebrities who campaigned for Hillary? Is that not collusion?
Yes
The press is going to have a field day with all this new anti-Trump material.
I didn't realize that Mueller was in charge of protecting election integrity. I thought he was looking for crimes perpetrated by the Trump campaign.
And what's up with the focus on the Russians? What about Canadian, Mexican, Chinese, and NK actors? Are we supposed to believe that once we cure the Russian fever, we're cured?
What a bunch of fools we are for putting up with this BS. We pay for this crap too.
So this is Muellers out?
Sure looks like it. Somehow I dont think Schiff, Swalwell, etc are going to be pleased....
BLM, Antifa, NAACP, Organizing for Action, Media Matters, SPLC, etc. All the Obama / Soros anarchist groups.
So the memes of the week for the low information voters are gun control and Trump-Russia. No need for a paragraph or two, just the phrases. All aimed at affecting the election outcome on November 6, 2018. What will it be next week?
“Count 43. By 2016, Defendants and their co-conspirators used their fictitious online personas to interfere with the 2016 U.S. presidential election. They engaged in operations primarily intended to communicate derogatory information about Hillary Clinton, to denigrate other candidates such as Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio, and to support Bernie Sanders and then-candidate Donald Trump.”
This cant be real. This was written by children with no legal training . I have never seen such abuse of the judiciary.
More than that!! This is AWESOME. Every undocumented that participates in political activity is exposed by this logic.. I love it!
2. There is nothing to indicate that this is the culmination of the Special Counsel's work, meaning that it doesn't mean they won't charge Trump or his people later.
3. Having 13 Russians on the hotseat (regardless of the quality of the cases against them) is a good way to have access to 13 people highly motivated to feed you some crap about Trump Russian collusion in exchange for a deal. Mueller and Co. desperately need someone from Russia itself as a witness to Trump collusion. No matter what else they do, without a direct Russia link, they have no case. Bottom line: too early to celebrate, but it does look good for Trump politically at this particular moment in time.
Exactly.
Just read a part of the indictment.
while they were organizing support FOR Trump, they were also behind protests AGAINST Trump
This creates an interesting dilemma for DACA people.
Following Mueller-logic, if they got actively involved in any form with any campaign then they belong in jail and/or deported.
13 Russians that cannot be extradited for prosecution...
That won’t stop Schiffhead from lying about it.
And CNN will have him on 12 hours a day now repeating the lies
Sums up the careers of Mueller, Rosenstein and that batsh!t crazy Comey. They're a regular Army of Darkness.
Trump completely exonerated!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Left on suicide watch!!!! WE WINNNNNNNN!!!
Vicente Fox and his pro-illegal cronies influenced the elections, too. Let’s indict them.
No kidding. Contrast this with Comey reading the serious charges against Hillary and then coming to the conclusion... not a big enough deal ...
“and disparaging Hillary Clinton.”
Heck I disparaged Clinton turning the campaign and still do.....I also call Congress and Tweet... so I assume I can be indicted or at least labeled a Russian Bot
