Robert Mueller Sends a Message
On Friday night, CNN reported that a grand jury in Washington, D.C., has approved the first charges arising from the special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into possible collusion between Donald Trump’s Presidential campaign and the Russian government.
Citing “sources briefed on the matter,” the network said that a judge had ordered the charges kept under seal, but that at least one arrest could take place as early as Monday.
Details were scant.
The CNN report didn’t specify what the charges were or whom they had been brought against.
But the news created an immediate furor, as other news organizations sought to follow up the story, and people on television and social media began speculating about the nature of the charges.
Shortly before midnight, the Wall Street Journal confirmed CNN’s scoop, without providing any additional details.
