Mueller Indicts Another Foreigner
[TheHill] Special counsel Robert Mueller is charging a man who communicated with former Trump campaign adviser Richard Gates with making false statements to the FBI.
What about the FBI guys making false statements to the FISA court?
Attorney Alex Van Der Zwaan is charged with making "materially false, fictitious, and fraudulent statements and representations" to the special counsel’s office and FBI agents, according to a court filing released Tuesday morning.

Van Der Zwaan allegedly lied about his last communications with Gates and then deleted emails requested by the special counsel’s office, according to the indictment.
Work for Hillary, didn't it?
He allegedly did so as part of his work for a firm hired by the Ukrainian Ministry of Justice to prepare a report on the trial of Yulia Tymoshenko, a former prime minister of Ukraine.

#1 The meeting referenced in the 'false' statement occurred in 2012, as I understand.

#2 That Ukraine coup is the center of a vast amount of dodgy dealings.

#4 Exactly why is this not being referred to the DOJ for them to handle? Other than the obvious that Mueller is on a fishing expedition and doesn't want to quit before he reels in the elusive Trump-fish -- even if it is for an overdue library book from the 60's...

#5 I kinda miss the good old days when the media would get their panties in a wad over a ten year old DUI.

Of course Zero ruined that with all of his drug use.
