- Numerous investigations spun out of U.S. Special Counsel Robert Mueller's probe are still alive and kicking, presenting potential ongoing legal and political risk for President Donald Trump, some of his former advisers and others.
The following are some of the topics likely being examined in spun-off probes by federal prosecutors in New York and elsewhere:Federal prosecutors in Manhattan have been investigating the spending and fundraising of Trump's inaugural committee. The Mueller report shows Cohen, slated to start a three-year prison sentence on May 6, was interviewed by federal authorities as recently as March 19 on topics ranging from negotiations during the campaign about building a Trump tower in Moscow to talks concerning a potential presidential pardon for Cohen.A Mueller probe mystery is why prosecutors in late 2018 sent right-wing author Jerome Corsi a draft plea agreement.
Mueller's report blacked out significant passages related to WikiLeaks, perhaps indicating that WikiLeaks or its founder Julian Assange are under ongoing scrutiny related to dissemination of emails during the 2016 election. Craig's case involves one of the Ukrainian-related projects that formed the basis of Mueller's probe of Manafort.
Tell us Mr. Mueller, how long were you into the investigation before you realized you were on a”fools errand”? How come you didn’t end it and save the taxpayer some money?
Yup... those investigation 'skeletons' left in the Mueller probe are like the skeleton's in that old Sinbad movie. They have swords! 😅
