I am praying for justice for this country.

"[N]ot registering as a foreign agent"? Ooooh, where have we heard that before - recently? Heh, heh, heh.

BREAKING: President Obama's White House Counsel Has Just Been Indicted

Katie Pavlich | @KatiePavlich |Posted: Apr 11, 2019 2:48 PM


Former White House Counsel for President Obama, Gregory Craig, was indicted Thursday afternoon by a grand jury for lying to FBI agents and for failing to register as a foreign agent. He is accused of failing to disclose work on behalf of the Ukrainian government.

"Craig, 74, of Washington, D.C., was indicted by a grand jury in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia for willfully falsifying and concealing material facts from the FARA Unit, in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 1001(a)(1), and for making false and misleading statements to the FARA Unit, in violation Title 22, United States Code, Section 618(a)(2)," the Department of Justice released in a statement. "The maximum penalties for the charged offenses are, respectively, five years’ imprisonment and a $250,000 fine, and five years’ imprisonment and a $10,000 fine. The maximum statutory sentence for federal offenses is prescribed by Congress and is provided here for informational purposes. The sentencing will be determined by the court based on the advisory Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors."

Craig will be arraigned in Court, likely on Friday. He worked as White House Counsel from 2009 to 2010.

Meanwhile, former Washington D.C. lobbyist Tony Podesta, the brother of former Clinton Campaign Chairman John Podesta, has also been reportedly under investigation for FARA violations.

The probe of Podesta and his Democratic-leaning lobbying firm grew out of Mueller's inquiry into the finances of former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort, according to the sources. As special counsel, Mueller has been tasked with investigating possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.

Manafort had organized a public relations campaign for a non-profit called the European Centre for a Modern Ukraine (ECMU). Podesta's company was one of many firms that worked on the campaign, which promoted Ukraine's image in the West.

The sources said the investigation into Podesta and his company began as more of a fact-finding mission about the ECMU and Manafort's role in the campaign, but has now morphed into a criminal inquiry into whether the firm violated the Foreign Agents Registration Act, known as FARA.

Ukraine ? Maybe they can catch Biden & Son in this.

Leaning? LEANING?
Whatever!

The media in this country is so predictable. Notice the 'news' links referenced in this thread so far - Newsmax and Townhall.

How is the NY Times reporting this?



That's it - a 'Washington Based Lawyer' - no mention that he was Obama's White House counsel. So predictable, it's like clockwork.

^^^ Gee, maybe they can make it sound like maybe another Republican associated with Trump is under investigation for the whole Russia thing, or something, 'cause, like, Ukraine's part of Russia, right?

This, too, has been coming for some years now.

And yes, it's awfully satisfying to see this going the other way. One begins to wonder how many of Mueller's personal friends will be hung out to dry thanks to Mueller's desperate shotgun blast style efforts to find something he could use against Trump.

Is the SWAT team and CNN on their way yet?

How about the team obozo sent to Israel to defeat Netanyahu?

They were working for a foreign country.

Messing with another country's elections is a crime according to the left.

Only if doing so harms the Left.

Or the airplane full of cash!

When the time comes, HUSSEIN et al will just blame everything else on this guy, since he is already under the bus.
