Who is the indictment for?

11. Absolutely.

That's a very likely reason why the FBI director was fired: to buy time to obscure and destroy documentation.

But there is an international spin on things in this investigation and therefore the staff-level people are not in control of much of the information they produced, nor are investigators limited to domestic sources of information.

For example, any email or text could have easily been routed through an allied nation and captured and recorded. We or an ally could be deep inside Russian communications, and we may have recovered the other half of the communications. If the chatter was encrypted, we have people for that. We might have flipped someone caught in the middle of some other political hell, for example in the Ukraine. And so on.

There isn't a bottom in the espionage pool, and since this entire investigation clearly surrounds some form of collusion with a foreign nuclear power, the gloves have been off the whole time. It's only a question of what sources of information the prosecutor chooses to use.

My guess is that the real cases have been churning through FISA for most of the year.
