Trump/Russia/SDNY investigation

Only been charged for false statements and witness tampering. Thought there might be something a little more juicy than obstruction in there though of course there could be more coming down the line.

Still, something fun to read over lunch on a Friday.

Those charges are off the back of the investigation, these are the original crimes that saw his involvement in said investigation:

It's a bit more serious than it seems I think

 
Makes you wonder if that Nixon tattoo was actually a carefully thought out prison shower defense system.

Oh yeah don't get wrong, any charge from the DOJ is serious! I was simply hoping we'd learn something new in this indictment and that it'd finally begin to establish the core conspiracy as opposed to reinforcing the quite blatant cover-up.

I (think I?) recall there was a reference to his comms with Wikileaks and senior Trump campaign members in another indictment. There's certainly been reporting around it.

Regardless it's an interesting start to a Friday.
 
So the indictments site him conspiring with senior Trump Campaign officials.

So... it’s fair to infer from that that senior Trump campaign officials will also have sealed indictments for the same charges?

Yes, would think so.

Interestingly from the video a few posts back on his arrest it shows fully armed FBI agents in riot gear arriving to arrest him at the crack of dawn and the commentator says that they didn’t do this for anyone else.

Surely more arrests are coming this morning.....

It's been fairly obvious for a while but it sounds like Trump's only real defence is to say he didn't know much about the inner workings of his campaign and his officials. Which he probably will do. Or am I missing something?
 
Doesn’t make much sense right now. Maybe it’s a Florida FBI thing.

FBI is federal, so the rules of engagement should be the same throughout the entire country. I'm guessing they kind of factored in the idea that Roger Stone is an unpredictable nutbag.
