WASHINGTON — Federal investigators have gathered enough evidence to bring charges in their investigation of President Donald Trump's former national security adviser and his son as part of the probe into Russia's intervention in the 2016 election, according to multiple sources familiar with the investigation...

Mueller is applying renewed pressure on Flynn following his indictment of Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort, three sources familiar with the investigation told NBC News.

Great news to wake up to to an otherwise lazy sleep-in morning.

Manafort is toast. Flynn, Sessions and Kushner have already been compromised. Donnie boy is chump change. Papadopoulos (sp?) and probably Carter Page have flipped.

It's been said that when a POTUS is in trouble domestically, they take a long insignificant foreign trip. Guess where the Dotard is?

Sheer luck he is away and hopefully Twitter silence.

This paragraph caught my eye finn's link above:

Related: Mike Flynn's Son Is Subject of Federal Russia Investigation

Flynn's son, Michael G. Flynn, who worked closely with his father, accompanied him during the campaign and briefly worked on the presidential transition, could be indicted separately or at the same time as his father, according to three sources familiar with the investigation.

If the elder Flynn is willing to cooperate with investigators in order to help his son, two of the sources said, it could also change his own fate, potentially limiting any legal consequences.

Good news, and getting more and more difficult for this corrupt administration to claim it's a “witch hunt” or “fake news”, though that’s only believed by morons like Whell at this point.

Will be much better news when Jared and/or Donny Jr are indicted. Donny will go off the rails when it happens, so dangerous waters ahead. Our democracy will survive, but will face a huge struggle. We will need all the moral courage we can muster to fight this corruption of our most basic beliefs.

After the Pentagon’s assessment of NK this morning, I’m afraid Donny will invade NK and shut down Mueller, and the Congress will go along.

Here is good morning to whell. Bit old but what the heck, it's timeless.

A top member of Donald Trump's administration has business links with Russian allies of President Vladimir Putin who are under US sanctions, the Paradise Papers have revealed.

Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross has an interest in Navigator Holdings, which earns millions a year transporting oil and gas for Russian energy firm Sibur.

Two major Sibur shareholders are under some form of US sanctions.

A commerce department spokesman did not dispute the revelations.

Is there anybody in the Trump administration not tied to Russia or unwilling to lie about it?

"WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—The White House called an unscheduled press briefing on Sunday to clarify Michael T. Flynn’s role in the Trump campaign, claiming that his job consisted entirely of making coffee when George Papadopoulos was busy with other matters...
“This was a campaign that drank a great deal of coffee,” she explained.

(D)ocuments and interviews show there are at least nine Trump associates who had contacts with Russians during the campaign or presidential transition.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/polit...c00_story.html

That's a lot of contact for a campaign that had absolutely no contact with any Russians.

Here is a expose, leaked financial documents.

Offshore Trove Exposes Trump-Russia Links And Piggy Banks Of The Wealthiest 1 Percent
Quote:
A trove of 13.4 million records exposes ties between Russia and U.S. President Donald Trump’s billionaire commerce secretary, the secret dealings of the chief fundraiser for Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the offshore interests of the queen of England and more than 120 politicians around the world.

The leaked documents, dubbed the Paradise Papers, show how deeply the offshore financial system is entangled with the overlapping worlds of political players, private wealth and corporate giants, including Apple, Nike, Uber and other global companies that avoid taxes through increasingly imaginative bookkeeping maneuvers.

One offshore web leads to Trump’s commerce secretary, private equity tycoon Wilbur Ross, who has a stake in a shipping company that has received more than $68 million in revenue since 2014 from a Russian energy company co-owned by the son-in-law of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Once again the axiom follow the money works.

Trump won because of leaked emails, he will go down from these also leaked financial information. And these usually never go away.

Donny Jr told the Russian lady lawyer his daddy would review the law targeting Russia if she could provide documents on dirty money going to Clinton.

No matter that the meeting resulted in nothing, Jr should be sweating bullets over Mueller right now - if he has half a brain, which isn’t clear.
