Mueller's team questioning Russian oligarchs
CNN Fake News ^ | 4 April 2018 | Kara Scannell and Shimon Prokupecz

Posted on 04/04/2018 4:46:21 PM PDT by Magnatron

Special counsel Robert Mueller's team has taken the unusual step of questioning Russian oligarchs who traveled into the US, stopping at least one and searching his electronic devices when his private jet landed at a New York area airport, according to multiple sources familiar with the inquiry.

A second Russian oligarch was stopped during a recent trip to the US, although it is not clear if he was searched, according to a person briefed on the matter. Mueller's team has also made an informal voluntary document and interview request to a third Russian oligarch who has not traveled to the US recently.

The situations have one thing in common: Investigators are asking whether wealthy Russians illegally funneled cash donations directly or indirectly into Donald Trump's presidential campaign and inauguration.

Mueller fumbling around again...

I doubt he will get anything from Russians. Except disinformation.

Why not check with the Russians he personally
gave the Uranium-1 to?
He made them rich by stealing America’s wealth,
so perhaps they might reward the seditionist traitor?

He needs to do a cavity search on the guy that flew to Russia to hand deliver uranium.

"Investigators are asking whether wealthy Russians illegally funneled cash donations directly or indirectly into Donald Trump's presidential campaign and inauguration."

Are they also asking if any of them "funneled cash" to either hillary or barry's presidental campaign's?

Of course not.

Not that I believe anything from CNN, but wasn't Mueller supposed to investigate Russian influence during the 2016 Presidential campaign? As in, either candidate? I wonder if he ever questions Russian Oligarchs if they funneled money to the Clinton Presidential campaign?

Is Mueller going to head over to Russia & investigate all of their Oligarchs now? He could really drag this thing out for the next 8 years tooling around the world investigating oligarchs.

And I am sure that Mueller will believe they are telling the truth on every question he asks. Unfortunately, not sarcasm.

What do citizens of a foreign country owe Mueller ? They are under no obligation to even speak with him.

I'd tell him to F off.

You know, looking at the two authors of this article, one of them is named Prokupecz.

Isn’t that a Russian name?

Is CNN colluding with the Russians???

Mueller may want to interview Yakov Smirnoff, I think he is still performing in Branson, Missouri.
