    Exclusive: First charges filed in Mueller investigation
    http://www.cnn.com/2017/10/27/politics/first-charges-mueller-investigation/index.html

    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.

    So much for the nothing burger. This could explain why Lying Donnie
    and his cohorts have been on the offensive with misinformation recently.

    My guess, Manafort and possibly Flynn.

    One of Manafort's buddies said he and Manafort are going to jail. He has been preparing his family for his absence. I forget his name but we can expect him as well.

    Believe it or not I'm sorta relieved that all this could be coming to an end. Whatever happens happens and from there we need to move on.

    They will be prosecute for federal crime, which can not be pardon by Trump.

    This is the beginning of the end for the pus*** grabber.

    Be patient.

    I'm sure it was a total coincidence that all this clinton uranium **** started up again right before the first charges were filed

    The only news outlet reporting this is CNN, all the other outlets are just citing them.

    This is just the beginning. This guarantees that Mueller will be in business for at least another year.

    They go for the little fish first. Watergate, which was far less complex, took two years until we had the first convictions.

    I applaud the maturity, but I would caution against thinking that we are near the end. This is the first step of a very lengthy legal process.

    Remember that Ken Starr was around for roughly 4 years.

    Hmm... I wonder if this is the reason for the full-court press this week by the House GOPers and their right-wing media arms.

    Trump still won't pardon. That would be political suicide.

    Trump's Twitter feed should be glorious over the weekend. I can imagine him sitting around the White House residence in his boxers, wife-beater tee, bath robe, and fluffy slippers sweating through the peoples' property.

    Trump has built his political career on political suicide. Hasn't stopped him yet.
