Shortly after the indictments were released, Mr Trump tweeted that Mr Mueller’s charge sheet proved there was “no collusion!” In fact, the 37-page document left all possibilities open. It simply collared the key players in the Russian troll farm known as the Internet Research Agency (IRA). In his televised press statement, the deputy attorney-general, Rod Rosenstein, said there was no charge of collusion “in this indictment”, which told us nothing about what Mr Mueller is planning to do next.
So what do the indictments tell us? First, that Mr Trump’s repeated claim that Russian election interference was a “hoax” is now debunked...Moreover, the indictments make clear that the Russian government’s explicit aim was to interfere with the 2016 election.
Second, Mr Mueller’s report hints at more dramatic possibilities by corroborating contents of the “Steele dossier”, which was compiled in mid-2016 by the former British intelligence officer, Christopher Steele — long before the US intelligence agencies warned of Russian interference. Mr Steele, who is in hiding, alleged that the Russians were using “active measures” to support the campaigns of Mr Trump, Bernie Sanders, the Democratic runner-up to Hillary Clinton, and Jill Stein, the Green party nominee. Mr Mueller’s indictment confirms that account.
In practice, nobody except Mr Mueller and his team has inside knowledge of what will happen next. It has so far been a leak-free investigation. But it is very clear that Mr Mueller is leaving no stone unturned.

So this snowball is still rolling downhill...it is getting larger and picking up speed. With every new announce of a plea, an indictment or a charge the ignorati come on here (GURPS) and claim "NO COLLUSION" and this proves the investigation is a "witch hunt" or a waste of taxpayer money....yet every announcement moves one step closer to that very outcome...every announcement shows that chargeable offenses were committed...every announcement shows the investigation is doing what our elected officials refuse to do.
So we have yet more direct evidence and proof that Russia willfully interfered in our Presidential election. And what does our incompetent President do in response, not one damn thing. The ingnorati have their collective panties in a bunch over foreigners being in this country illegally and taking jobs...but the lot of you don't seem to give two sh1ts about foreigners entering this country to interfere with our elections? Please tell me again what a bunch of Patriots you all are! You keep your death grips on your guns in case the black helicopters of your own government land in your driveway....but you sit around with your thumbs up your posteriors and do nothing while our elections are tampered with by foreign governments?
