After month of breathless media drooling over Robert Mueller’s investigation in possible Russian collusion in the 2016, Mueller gives us Ukraine and money laundering:
WASHINGTON, Oct 30 (Reuters) – Paul Manafort, a former campaign manager to President Donald Trump, and a business associate were indicted by a federal grand jury on 12 counts including conspiracy against the United States, conspiracy to launder money and violating federal lobbying and banking laws, the federal special counsel said on Monday.
“The indictment contains 12 counts: conspiracy against the United States, conspiracy to launder money, unregistered agent of a foreign principal, false and misleading FARA statements, false statements, and seven counts of failure to file reports of foreign bank and financial accounts,”
Paging Clara Peller, so where is the connection to the campaign of last year, Donald Trump or Russia? Oh year Manafort once worked for the Trump campaign.
A federal grand jury approved the indictment on Friday and a federal judge ordered it sealed, a source briefed on the matter has told Reuters, adding it could be unsealed as soon as Monday.
Mueller was hired to investigate crime. Instead he, or his team, commits them.
