Special counsel Robert Mueller is investigating Democratic lobbyist Tony Podesta and the Podesta Group, according to an NBC News report.

Mueller, who is leading the investigation into Russia’s attempts to meddle in the U.S. presidential election, is reportedly probing the firm to determine whether it violated the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) in its work for the European Centre for a Modern Ukraine (ECFMU). The nonprofit ECFMU was part of a public relations campaign run by President Trump's former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, to bolster Ukraine’s reputation.

He’s “investigating” Podesta so he can “clear” Podesta.

It’s a shame they would never investigate him for having pictures of little children being tortured on his walls.

I suppose that is why Tony resigned from his own company. Logic is a very screwy thing.

This is getting good. I think Manafort was working with/for the Podesta group in trying to hide their own involvement with Russia and kickbacks. The Trump dossier and UraniumOne are the areas that need investigation, and will point back to Clinton, Obama, Podesta, Manafort, Comey, the DNC and Mueller.

When I said Washington needs a bull in its china shop, I meant Trump, not Meuller.

Tony wouldn’t have stepped down today if that was the case.

When you see the list of allegations against Manafort, it's not outlandish to think that Manafort was sent to work for the Trump campaign specifically as part of a Podesta-orchestrated strategy to undermine Trump.

Heck -- I wouldn't be shocked if a pardon from future president Hillary Clinton was offered in exchange for his cooperation.

I don't believe a word of this.

The media are lying to try to show that Mueller and Podesta are not both working together.

Nothing but more lies from the media.

Mueller and Podesta are on the same side.

______________________________________________

Podesta has nothing to do with Trump/Russia 2016. Cause there is no Trump/Russia 2016.

However. He has everything to do with CLINTON/Russia 2016. And that why Mueller is starting to see where the smoke is coming from.

The biggest thing Tony Podesta fears right now may not be criminal prosecution, but a subpoena of the records of the Podesta Group and their clients that will open a whole pallet full of cans of worms.
