The Justice Department on Friday indicted 13 Russian nationals and three Russian groups of violating criminal laws with the intent to interfere with "with U.S. elections and political processes", according to agency.
According to the agency, "the indictment charges all of the defendants with conspiracy to defraud the United States, three defendants with conspiracy to commit wire fraud and bank fraud, and five defendants with aggravated identity theft."
The indictment says that some defendants "communicated with unwitting individuals associated with the Trump campaign" without revealing their association with Russia. The indictment also says the defendants posted negative information about a number of candidates during the last general election.
"Defendants operations included supporting the presidential campaign on then-candidate Donald J. Trump and disparaging Hillary Clinton" his Democratic rival, according to the indictment.

When is he going to indict our own media. For example, look at these headlines from the NY Daily news alone during that campaign..........
That was to throw them off their tracks, the FBI still can't figure it out.
“disparage”
“matter”
“highly irresponsible”
wow.
retards all.
I guess they want to make the shooting news ho away to cover up their incompetence.
How do you say ham sandwich in Russian?
“So posting negative information about candidates on the web is now a crime?”
If thats the case the entire MSM is indictable.
Starting with CNN.
...oh noes!
That would be a good guess.
But since we now know that the FBI ignored the warning signs about Cruz and his threats, they very well can’t get a break here either.
Whether it comes to illegally interfering in an election, or looking the other way while a school shooting goes down - it seems the FBI is worse than useless there days.
They are downright dangerous.
Of course, even Henry Kissinger said that, laughed about it. Said it absolutely absurd why they would want Trump, it makes no sense and it doesn’t which to date the left still has not given any kind of reason why the Russians would want Trump. This is unreal, this is coup going on right now in OUR government based on complete BS.
Is he going to indict himself?
lolwut? Are you sure this article didn’t actually come from The Onion?
It’s the seriousness of the accusation, y’know.
Mueller indicted Russians that he knows Russia won’t extradite.
Yeah, and they started out supporting Sanders and “disparaging” Trump. Big crime is claiming “personal” as the reason for visas to travel to the US, when it was political “business.”
What I want to know is: If the Russians were behind “Not My President” rallies - per the indictment - are they the ones responsible for the pink pussy hats?
This is TOO MORONIC for words....
