Clapper said Friday's indictment of 13 Russian nationals and three foreign entities, which includes charges of conspiracy to defraud the United States and aggravated identity theft, served to validate findings by the intelligence community on Russian election interference.
But the former intelligence chief, who served under Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama, predicted that Mueller's team had yet to fully reveal its findings.
"I do think there are other shoes to drop here besides this indictment," Clapper told Dana Bash on CNN's "State of the Union."
Pressed on what additional findings Mueller's team of federal prosecutors might unearth, Clapper suggested that Americans have yet to see the full extent of the involvement of the Russian government in efforts to undermine the U.S. electoral process.

I'm guessing there's a closet full of shoes not even opened yet that will eventually drop.

Is there any reason to think there wouldn't be more indictments?
Mueller has charged four Americans once affiliated with the Trump campaign/administration, 13 Russians, and three Russian companies involved in US election interference.
And so far as I can tell, there's zero indication the investigation is close to ending. Or even close to the ending of the beginning.
