Not the story, but yeah, the story. |
CNN is reporting that criminal charges are being pressed by special counsel. The timing seems odd to say the least given that his name has come up in the Uranium One and Obama Clinton Russia collusion allegations.
Nevertheless, CNN is likely thrilled by the sealed indictment.
Washington (CNN)A federal grand jury in Washington 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.A spokesman for the special counsel's office declined to comment. The White House also had no comment, a senior administration official said Saturday morning. Mueller was appointed in May to lead the investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election.
Details might leak prior to Monday but that's when the proverbial poop will hit the fan for someone - be it president Trump, Hillary Clinton (not likely), someone in the FBI or someone in the Trump administration, or someone else entirely. Maybe even CNN again.
