So, who's left to indict outside of the Trump Family?

My count:

Jerome Corsi
Sam Nunberg
maybe Steve Bannon

I would say Hope Hicks, but perhaps she's flipped.

If I'm dreaming big, top dogs from NRA, Cambridge Analytica, and Alfa Bank/Deutches Bank...

Otherwise, the noose is tightening to its prime position...

This process, Mueller/Dem Congress investigations/media coverage, has a ways to go yet.

I'm not convinced about Nunberg. Bannon always tried to distance himself. He also always seem to know that there was a crime.

There's that thread.

Manafort ties to a bunch of Russians, the NRA, GOP talking heads, GOP politicians, and Mike Pense. There's that thread.

They all tie to the Trumps. But then again, they all tie to Putin and his gang, who sits above Trump on the plan of "101 ways to Destroy Democracy".

Which one is Mueller's target? Getting Putin out of the U.S. is hopefully his top priority, getting the Trump Klan is hopefully lagniappe.

Don't forget Reince Priebus who actually worked for the RNC before the election. He may have been involved with the secret NRA-Russian money PAC also. It would have taken somebody inside the RNC to set that up, but I don't know who it was. Maybe Priebus, or maybe another guy higher up. Michael Cohen was also involved in this, so we can only hope that Cohen has spilled the beans to Mueller on how they set it up. Mueller has been good about following the money, and we know it went through the RNC somehow.

They were the operatives and the bankers who provided the targeting for Russian GRU social media engineering. In many ways they, and Cambridge Analytica are lynch pins for the whole election theft operation.

They will do it again if given the opportunity.

Most of Trump's original cabinet for using their positions to enrich either themselves, cronies, or both.

Maybe someone creative can find a way to indict McConnell for obstruction, but I think he would have thought of that long ago, and covered his ass from the time he started preparing to block the Garland nomination. I would LOVE to see him led away in handcuffs. More than ANY of them. But CYA is a game at which he is a grandmaster.

“The court where Mueller has brought most of his prosecutions is the federal court in D.C. — there are 36 sealed indictments pending right now in that federal court,” he revealed. “They may be from Mueller’s team, they may not be, they’re secret so we don’t know.”

“We know 18 sealed indictments have been filed since August,” he continued. “August is the time that the Mueller team went on radio silence because of the upcoming midterm elections.”
