The best part of the indictments..

[Kentonio]

"Defendants, together with others known and unknown to the grand jury, knowingly and intentionally conspired to defraud the United States”. "

This is so beautiful.

[global1]

1. Drip, Drip, Drip......nt

[Sanity Claws]

2. "the other known" is also beautiful

That indicates that the ones known likely testified to the grand jury. People have turned.

3. It's beginning

to look a lot like a real fitzmas this time...

[Honeycombe8]

4. FINALLY, something official lays it out there! Conspiracy to defraud. Phew. nt

5. +1, indictment mentioned Russians worked with "Trump Associates" didn't exclude his current clan

[Chakaconcarne]

6. "scheme had no effect on election"

says deputy ag

[Rainbow Droid]

7. He actually said that the indictment does not claim the election was affected.

Not that it wasn't. Important difference.

9. +1 James Clapper said recently that it's not Mueller & Co's job to determine the election impact,

that's Congress's job, as well as to ensure it doesn't happen again. Nunes, Grassley and the rest of the R's are doing everything in their power to make sure neither of those things happen.

8. Somehow, this reminds me of another Donald...

Rumsfeld. "Reports that say that something hasn't happened are always interesting to me, because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. ... But there are also unknown unknowns – the ones we don't know we don't know."

Heh. Brilliant.

[blue-wave]

10. And so it begins!

What a year it will be!!

[Raven123]

11. I think it unwise to assume too much from the indictments

The most we can says that they support those who have been shouting from the rooftops about Russian interference in our election process and the need to act now to protect 2018.

[Stonepounder]

12. Another devastating 3D chess move from Mueller against the tic-tac-toe loser.

Russia's attempt to interfere in our election is now out there for all to see. Can't claim that it is 'fake news' any more. I think Mueller and Rosenstein's jobs are a bit safer today than they were yesterday.
