The indictments will come.

Today or another day, they will come.

As far as I can tell, it's just unreliable sources quoting each other.

of Mueller's operation and doesn't cite any sources. Previous indictments were preceded by major news sources citing knowledgeable persons, except for Papadopoulos, which totally surprised everyone.

So consider me skeptical until I see otherwise.

Like I said in the other thread, the biggest stories about the Trump Russia saga had no pre buzz. They just came out. On the contrary, these same Twitter accounts have made false alarms before with nothing that happened. If anything is released it would be a coincidence, not because these people had any secret knowledge.
