Mueller investigation far from over
18 Feb '18 06:482 editsIf Trump supporters think Robert Mueller is finished with Donald Trump and his little little group, please reconsider.
Special counsel Robert Mueller's team investigating the Trump campaign's alleged Russia ties has added a veteran cyber prosecutor—the latest sign that the investigation is far from over, contrary to what President Donald Trump's lawyer has told him. Ryan Dickey was re-assigned from the Justice Department's computer crime and intellectual property division to Mueller’s team Mueller spokesman Peter Carr confirmed.
"The Russian portion of this is much more massive, much more multi-faceted and going to require a lot more work," he added. Mueller's team now comprises 18 prominent investigators specializing in fields including organized crime, white-collar crime and public corruption. Sources familiar with the investigation told the Washington Post last month that the probe could last at least another year.
We speak about the “Mueller probe” as a single entity, but it’s important to understand that there are no fewer than five (known) separate investigations under the broad umbrella of the special counsel’s office—some threads of these investigations may overlap or intersect, some may be completely free-standing, and some potential targets may be part of multiple threads. But it’s important to understand the different “buckets” of Mueller’s probe.
The Trump folks can cry "fake news" and "whichunt" all they want, but this is going to get major league ugly before it's finished!
