Mueller's office may have dropped a hint about the mystery grand-jury subpoena case

In a new court filing Thursday, the special counsel Robert Mueller's team asked the US District Court in Washington, DC, to file a sealed response to lawyers representing an indicted Russian company because the government's response "discusses 'a matter occurring before the grand jury.'"

Fervent observers of Mueller's investigation into Russia's election interference were quick to say that the court filing could be tied to a separate and ongoing legal battle between Mueller and an unknown entity over a grand-jury subpoena.

Thursday's filing was related to Mueller's case against Concord Management and Consulting LLC and the Internet Research Agency (IRA), two of three Russian entities the special counsel indicted last year on charges of conspiring to interfere in the 2016 US presidential election via a social-media disinformation campaign.

Concord is owned by Yevgeny Prigozhin, a Kremlin-allied Russian oligarch who was also indicted and is accused of using his companies to bankroll the IRA.

working their crimes right here in the USA - for years

I often wondered why they were never dealt with then.

Now it looks like they are firmly entrenched and have extensive connections in very high places.

Fuck help us if we cannot put an end to this mess.

But they got taken down. All it takes are politicians and prosecutors that can't be corrupted.

I am certain of it...

I also am pretty certain that when the Mueller investigation is done, we will get more information that will show that Peter Stzrok is not the bad guy that Trump, Devin Nunes and all the GOP painted him to be....
