Great OP. Here's a $20 for your trouble

Federal investigators exploring whether Donald Trump's campaign colluded with Russian spies have seized on Trump and his associates' financial ties to Russia as one of the most fertile avenues for moving their probe forward, according to people familiar with the investigation.
The web of financial ties could offer a more concrete path toward potential prosecution than the broader and murkier questions of collusion in the 2016 campaign, these sources said.
One year after the FBI opened an investigation, the probe is now managed by special counsel Robert Mueller. Sources described an investigation that has widened to focus on possible financial crimes, some unconnected to the 2016 elections, alongside the ongoing scrutiny of possible illegal coordination with Russian spy agencies and alleged attempts by President Donald Trump and others to obstruct the FBI investigation. Even investigative leads that have nothing to do with Russia but involve Trump associates are being referred to the special counsel to encourage subjects of the investigation to cooperate, according to two law enforcement sources.

Goats reaction to the OP

You really don't have any idea of the magnitude and seriousness of this investigation.
I'm glad. You'll be that much more shocked when the shit hits the fan.

Nice picture. Says much about your competency.

 

[MarkDuffy]

You know there has to be a basis in fact or law to investigate. It's a 4th Amendment thing..

Yes in dee dee

You have to have that to even seat a Grand Jury

Si se puede!

Read the OP. Mueller has latitude to go anywhere the Russian investigation takes him.
An investigation with this grand scope always includes finances.
And who's been more secret with their finances than Trump.
Ever ask yourself why??

The COTUS is the Supreme Law of the Land.

There must be a basis in fact or law for an investigation. It's a 4th Amendment thing.

It's a protection afforded all of us in the Bill of Rights which are protections against government abuse.

I'm kind of looking forward to mike and Mitch and Paul answering those questions.

Well, a "consulting firm" tied to Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell is swept up in this shit too. I think the influence reached all levels of the GOP, the Conservative movement, and the Conservative media. The reason is because those guys know they can't win elections on the merits of their ideas, and in their zeal "to win", are willing to make deals with enemies in order to advance their agenda.

The whole thing needs to be pulled out, root and stem.

Let's see if the Grand Jury lets the Comrade get away with his lies.

HAVE A GREAT VACATION, COMRADE!

All he had to do is look over the fake news reports and read the real transcripts from testimony by the Trump team. He could have taken a couple weeks and correctly concluded there was no "there" there. Instead he's empaneled a grand jury! If you know anything about grand juries, it's a one-sided affair with no defense lawyers....a kangaroo court. Mueller is looking for BIG TROUBLE now and he's going to get it. He and his pal, the ex-FBI Director/leaker/obstruction of justice, Comey, both, and the entire Clinton criminal enterprise.

Trump now has no alternative but to FREE THE HOUNDS....THE DOGS OF WAR. Mueller is now jewed, screwed, tattooed, red, raw and ragged. First, he's going to get fired, then he and his pal are going to be indicted for a criminal conspiracy to bring down the president of the United States in a treasonous coup.

Poor Mueller still fishing...

The Constitution is what has driven trump bat-shit crazy.

He thought he was king of the world

The subpoenas will begin to pour out now.

"money"? They don't take beads and arrowheads at my bank.

 

[Lakhota]

My understanding is that Mueller already had grand juries impaneled - even before this new DC one.
