Federal prosecutors issued subpoenas to associates of President Donald Trump’s former national security adviser Michael Flynn, CNN reported on Tuesday.
Citing unnamed sources familiar with the matter, CNN reported that U.S. Attorney Dana Boente’s office is seeking business records from the period after Flynn was ousted as director of the Defense Intelligence Agency in 2014.
The subpoenas represent the first sign of a significant escalation of activity in the FBI’s broader investigation begun last July into possible ties between Trump campaign associates and Russia.
The subpoenas issued in recent weeks by the US Attorney’s Office in Alexandria, Virginia, were received by associates who worked with Flynn on contracts after he was forced out as director of the Defense Intelligence Agency in 2014, according to the people familiar with the investigation.
Ah…
There’s the other shoe! I just knew it had to have dropped somewhere.
Wow, what an incredible coincidence!
Ooooo shit just got real.
Those of us who have been following Claude Taylor and Rick Wilson heard about this starting a couple weeks ago. According to Taylor–whose reporting now has a lot more credibility–three separate federal grand juries have already been convened. In addition he claims there are 9 sealed indictments in one case, and 16 more expected in others.
Yep. Big shoe a Federal Prosecutor appointed by Sessions and Rosenstein, how much you want to bet that it’s going to take forever and nothing is going to come out of it.
