    First charges filed in Mueller investigation (CCN)

    Washington (CNN) A federal grand jury in Washington, DC, on Friday approved the first charges in the investigation led by special counsel Robert Mueller, according to sources briefed on the matter.

    The charges are still sealed under orders from a federal judge. Plans were prepared Friday for anyone charged to be taken into custody as soon as Monday, the sources said. It is unclear what the charges are.

    Pretty blatant attempt by the deep state to divert attention from the real scandal of Uranium One and the Trump Dossier that suddenly hit the headlines just before this broke!

    You do know that Paul Manafort has been connected to The Podesta Group? Apparently he was involved with Russian oligarchs via his Ukraine connection, so that introductuces the intriguing prospect that it could be Clinton/Obama related? Man, what a script, even Hollywood would struggle to come up with such outlandish stories!

    Even for you suggesting that Manafort is a Clinton/Obama problem is jumping the shark. I would guess that he is the first target and the charges may be more to do with his financial dealings as a means of applying thumbscrews. Still as you predicted how this would all unfold and been right all the way around the curve then I would bow to your conclusion.

    I think more accurately the Republicans initiated the research and the Democrats continued with the dossier when it became clear that Trump would get the Republican nomination.

    Paul Manafort was Trump's campaign manager for several months in mid-2016 before he was replaced. He had dealings with the Ukranian president who fled to Russia when there was a coup/popular uprising (delete as appropriate). The special prosecutor seems very interested in his financial dealings during that period. Gluey will probably advise do your own research as it is all there!!

    That is true, but they are saying the original Republican dossier didn't contain any mention of Russia, and this all came after Hillary & the DNC took it over. So the speculation is Steele was brought in to add the Russian stuff, which may have then been used by the Obama administration as the basis for the FISA warrants that were issued, which resulted in the Trump election team being put under electronic surveillance.

    We will have to wait until the subpoenaed documents from the FBI & DOJ are handed over to congress before we get a definitive explanation. There are now 3 separate ongoing investigations, and the main FBI Uranium One witness has had his NDA removed, so he will also be giving evidence under oath. This is besides the work that Meuller is doing, so it's no wonder that it all seems very confusing.

    Very good research, just keep on connecting the dots!
