Donating money to nasty politicians isn't illegal. Are they connected to Russia? Did they launder money? They're dodgy characters but more than dodginess is necessary for an indictment.

.....The Mercers, according to a story on Rachael Maddow, proposed in August 2016 that they organize the info from Wikileaks so that it could be better distributed.....this is aiding and abetting the Russian goal of distributing the dirt from Wikileaks.....and, since by August virtually everyone knew that Russia was behind Wikileaks.....it seems to be a lot of smoke here.
Would Mercer prefer an orange jump suit or stripes? Maybe give her a choice, huh?
