    Special Counsel Robert Mueller has impaneled a grand jury in Washington to investigate Russia’s interference in the 2016 elections, a sign that his inquiry is growing in intensity and entering a new phase, according to two people familiar with the matter.

    Yes a new phase....the phase where the criminals start to get indicted and the snitches start talking. President better get his pardon pen ready. Also better hope no state charges come, as he can't pardon for those.

    "The 2nd grand jury suggests there is a long-term, large-scale series of prosecutions being contemplated & pursued."

    Yup. Grand Jury impanelled. What does this mean? It means that a sound, serious investigation is underway. This takes all the blowhard wind out of the sails of the "it's a witch hunt" and "it's just butthurt over losing the election" crowd. It is now guaranteed to be a legitimate, serious investigation, and it got to this point due to the seriousness of the evidence gathered so far.

    The first Grand Jury was empaneled about 6 or 7 weeks ago. Conservatives just ignored it.

    Can't wait to see how they are going tap dance their way with this one.

    Good luck Democrats. Eating your nothing burger might please you. Will Mueller prosecute though having no evidence?

    Not if he was actually a good FBI leader.

    No, Obama said the Russians did it. Mueller shall find out who actually did it, were it actually done.

    We said Trump was not party to things done by Russians. The Russian lawyer delivered a nothing burger.

    Trump and his associates glibly spin reality like some medicine show Huckster. You can get away with that and lots of situations and they have gotten away with it till now But prosecutors tend to be very precise in their language and their view of reality.

    So Mueller will give evidence that Russia attempted to alter our election and Congress will pass sanctions on them?

    Oh boy, this should be fun.

    Wait a second..........

    Good point. But it is not fake, But the Democrats alleging guilt are giving out fake news. Muller has not pronounced Trump guilty nor linked him to Russians.

    It's all fun and games until the money laundering shakes down all around Trump, his family and associates.

    You really don't know what's going on, do you? Mueller has tapped into some of the most respected, unbiased, experienced minds for this panel. He is of that category too. You can deny it and pretend it's a "nothingburger" all you want to. It won't mean anything. Mueller would not be proceeding to this if he had no evidence to present.
