No indictments under Obama. None. Nada. No one. They keep saying that, over and over.

That used to be true, but not now. Fox News reports that Greg Craig has been indicted for false statements.
I guess that had to wait until the Holder and Lynch swamp creatures were out of the way.

Fox News left this part out..........

However, Greg Craig was NOT Legal Council in Obama's administration when he broke the law.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregory_B._Craig

snip~~
White House Counsel in Obama administration[edit]

Quote:
Craig in the Oval Office with President Barack Obama on May 1, 2009, as photographed by Pete Souza.
In its November 2008 issue, shortly before the 2008 presidential election, the ABA Journal speculated that Craig might be named Secretary of State in an Obama administration.[26] Craig also reportedly hoped for that position or another foreign-policy post in the Obama administration, which did not materialize.[27] Obama ultimately appointed Craig to serve as his first White House Counsel.[27] Craig served in that post from January 2009 to January 2010.[6]
So He was NOT involved with Ukrainian Government/Manafort until 2012 working in his Law Firm. Just to point out a technicality .

This is a travesty.

Greg Craig was working in the Ukraine as an unregistered foreign agent, just like Manafort, and should have faced the same charges as Manafort.

Mueller didn't swat team raid Craig, he referred him to the friendliest district he could, the SDNY.

The SDNY ran out the clock on Craig's FARA violations, allowing the statute of limitations to expire. The SDNY was attempting to bury this whole case, but the DOJ stepped in, and took the case from them, and charged Craig for laying about being an unregistered foreign agent.

This is nothing short of an outrageous level of corruption from the SDNY to protect a former Obama official.

Whoever made the decision to allow the statute of limitations to expire on Craig's FARA violations should be put under investigation.

And Manafort was not with the Trump campaign when he broke the law.
Stupid point counterbalanced by a fact.

Hahaha! So he was indicted for the work he did with Manafort, Trump's campaign chairman. The corruption never ends with this president.

Sorry, OP, but your attempt to smear President Obama has failed...…...again.

SAD!

Fail.
The violation occurred before Trump employed Manafort, and had nothing to do with Trump.
Hysterical.
