A federal grand jury in the District of Columbia on Friday indicted 13 Russian nationals and three Russian entities accused of interfering in U.S. elections.
The announcement came from the office of Special Counsel Robert Mueller.
According to the special counsel, the indictment charges 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.

Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein is scheduled to hold a press conference Friday afternoon.

Thanks RoosterRedux.
“did he just exonerate them?”
Nothing in his presser was uncalculated. So I say yes, Mueller’s exit in 3 miles.
Wake me up when they arrest a Saudi or Mexican.
It is an exit plan because all roads lead to ties between this company and fusion gps / dnc / hillary /doj / fbi / obama etal.
Re your nauseating pic in post 68:
It needs a caption. “Hillary fights the Law of Gravity for all of us!”
STOP!!! THAT IS HILLARY DISPARAGEMENT!! IF YOU SEND THAT ON INTERNET IT IS WIRE FRAUD!!! lol
This indictment is so pathetic.
It’s basically a political document trying to provide fodder for the meme pushed by the lunatic MSM and Dems that Hillary would have been elected if not for Russian trolls.
Yes, the identity theft crimes are real. But when my own credit card number was stolen and used, neither the bank nor the police could be exercised to follow the leads I gave them. The bank issued me a new card and that was it. No doubt millions of Americans have had the same experience.
Forgive me for being cynical when the FBI doesn’t give a damn about identity theft when it is ordinary Americans whose credit is being stolen. And they sure don’t give a damn about illegal aliens committing identity theft against Americans, because the illegals provide cheaper labor than Americans and constitute a new cohort of future democrat voters.
And let me see if I understand their reasoning: Muslim citizens of foreign countries have a constitutional right to come in to the United States even though the President has issued an order completely within his power to restrict their entry due to terrorism concerns, because these foreign Muslims supposedly have the right to freedom of religion under the US Constitution even though they are not American citizens.
But Russian trolls do not have the same freedom of speech rights that American trolls have under the US Constitution.
Gee, isn’t it funny how their legal theories have no coherence or consistency other than to serve the interests of Hillary, Obama and the lunatic left?
Will it even take a week before this garbage indictment falls apart under the weight of its own absurdities?
This is laughable.
This is pathetic.
Fitting that Mueller should sign his name to this farce.
Agent these guys in Russia?
BTW I think they must have been using Bandon that’s why he’s talking to Mueller so much.
They come out with this TODAY.
This is a classic case of SQUIRREL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Democrats’ Trump surveillance and “collusion” witch hunt have diverted massive FBI resources.
Meanwhile the FBI lacked the will and resources to bother with specific school-shooting threats by Florida teen maniac Nikolas Jesus Cruz — information a citizen handed them on a platter, no brilliant investigation required.
Don’t forget, though, that there’s at least one more interrogation to take place. Next week a Trump “advisor” is going to be questioned by heir Mueller and his band of merry morons.
This whole BS investigation is NOTHING but an EXCUSE for spending MILLIONS in taxpayer money for NOTHING!!! How in the HELL can they charge Russian nationals for interfering in our election, these BASTARDS know that Russia will NEVER extradite them to the US!!! I tell you I despise this government with E ERY DAMNED ounce of my being, the absolute CRAP these BASTARDS get away with has become VERY CLOSE to living in the Soviet Union!!! I just want to SCREAM with disgust at the CORRUPT BASTARDS in DC that we can’t seem to do ANYTHING about getting them the HELL OUT OF THERE!!! These SOB’s honestly believe the American public is SO STUPID we buy their CRAP SANDWICH!!!!
This is embarrassingly weak.
What about the millions of illegal aliens campaigning, organizing, blogging, contributing and yes VOTING for HRC?
Are they “registered.”
They are RUSSIAN citizens. They will go home and be beyond Mueller's reach. Are we going to stop them from getting on planes? It's just an indictment, not a conviction.
Ok. But it is a Russian Squirrel!
LOL. I understand. But I assumed those indicted were IN the US. Are you telling me they are in Russia?? That’s even more ludicrous. How embarrassing.
BS.
What kind of idiots sat on the grand jury?
Yup. This may indeed be Mueller’s exit ramp.
Some Russians did something.
Trump’s people did not realize who they were.
They are in Russia and Putin won’t turn them over.
Guess my job is done here.
