Following Michael Cohens guilty plea for lying to Congress, Special Counsel Robert Mueller has reportedly pivoted to investigating President Trumps children, Ivanka and Donald Jr., for their role in trying to secure a Trump Tower in Moscow.
Cohen testified that talks pertaining to a real estate deal in Moscow had ended in January 2016, but in reality continued into June of that year.
Yahoo News reports that multiple sources confirm both Trump Jr., and First Daughter Ivanka, a top White House adviser, were also working to make Trump Tower Moscow a reality years earlier in separate projects, in 2013.
Muellers court documents against Cohen seem to reference the Trump childrens involvement in the later Moscow project.
So far, Don Jr. said he was peripherally aware of the later Moscow project, but no other news is currently available. Is Ivanka a broader target for Mueller now?
Donald Trump Jr. has been rumored to be a target of the Special Counsel for some time, for a variety of reasons. But Ivanka getting the spotlight now reeks of desperation for Mueller who needs a scalp in this ridiculous Russia collusion investigation.
Yahoo notes that the Trump Organization, at which Ivanka was an executive at the time of the Moscow real estate talks, was legally able to conduct business in Russia right up until their fathers inauguration.
The President himself has laid stake to that claim.
When Im running for president that doesnt mean Im not allowed to do business, Trump stated to reporters, correctly alluding to the fact that he was still a civilian at the time and very well could have been after Election Day in 2016.
It should be noted that former President Bill Clinton was conducting financially lucrative business transactions in Moscow while his wife, Hillary Clinton, was a public servant as Secretary of State.
The new report does add that Muellers inquiries about Ivanka and Don Jr.s work on Trump Tower Moscow does not mean they are targets of his investigation.
But it surely indicates an attempt to find something on the two.

Will be a suicidal move.
Yeah, you don’t bother a bear’s cub.
so just how long is PDJT going to permit/enable this stinking Mueller cancer on America to fester and grow, anyways?
This POS needs to be fired and his dog and pony show shut down.
Mueller will be fired if he targets the Presidents kids.
Let him cross that line.
Poking a lion with a stick.
You will be consumed.
Timing is everything.
I am sure he is waiting for the opportune moment.
Every one of these people should be pardoned................
I interpret this as Muley baiting Trump to fire him.
When the HELL, Mr. Trump will it be war?
No doubt about it, they got 'em dead to rights this time. It's over. 'peach fo fi!
He is trying to get himself fired.
Trump isn't going to take the bait.
American Gestapo

(and we were told Mueller was gonna investigate the crimes of HilLIARy, Obammy, Pelousy, and their puppetmeister SorozNazi... whatever happened to that investigation?)
Oh ... I could see where that would be a whole lot of illegal activity there. < /sarc>
Someone needs to donate a vacation in Fort Marcy park to this commie-loving scumbag...
Is perpetual legal system pervert Robert Mueller just going to be a permanent fixture in Washington spending the rest of his life creating charges against anyone who doesn’t agree with the New World Order?
