Only ones significant to Trump IMO would be the ones after the election. However, I can see how Buzzfeed considers this to be "breaking" due to the fact that Michael Flynn and his company were working as a consultant for Russia during this time period and Paul Manafort's activities. This release of new information is probably related to them IMO.

But of course they (Flynn and Manfort) are related to Trump so people will make reports about this.

You missed the point of what I was saying.

These transactions were flagged at the time, some dating back years. The idea that they just now found these is laughable.

The Russian collusion story will soon be proven false, this is the death rattle of the collusion narrative.

Sergey Kislyak visited the Obama White House 22 times. Democrats have a major credibility problem.

You call two guilty pleas, two indictments and a grand jury subpoena a "dead end"?

Because they don't want to believe it.

Not a dead end at all.

Got to wonder why people invest the time to post over and and over and over, day after day after day about how there is nothing to the investigation. All a big hoax. Nothing to see here. Move along.

Follow the money. Trump Inc may have profited from illegal transactions involving cash Real Estate deals and not proper reporting. All after his last bankruptcy when only the Russians would lend him money.

Trump Inc of course is the POTUS.
yes trump may have profited , but so may have Obama, Clinton, lynch, comey, podesta, warren, Pelosi, Kerry et.al.

Like...wishing for people to behave within the bounds of the law? Your argument is that we should be concerned if people are prosecuted for violating the law?

Do you think everyone is like so many who support Trump, where our chosen politician is more important then the laws? LOL.

Of course it's a dead end. Any astute observer - ie. not CNN/MSNBC/HuffPost/MSM - would recognize that Mueller's indictment of Bates/Manafort/Flynn/ are nothing more than a smokescreen to placate outraged and unhinged Democrats. They want a scalp, and a year long "investigation" with no scalps doesn't make for good politics for an "investigator" that needs Congress to approve funding for that "investigation." Especially when Democrats knew good and well that Mueller stacked the "investigation" with Hillary accolytes. They expected production, so they got it. Mueller might be shooting Trump/Putin blanks, but he's not stupid. He knows the ways of Washington.

So, yes, this "investigation" is a dead end. Bates/Manafort/Flynn will pay for their sins - which are NOT related to the election. Papadopoulos will get a slap on the wrist for being the no-information flunky that he is - and forever be stained as the guy Mueller used to make Democrats think he had zeroed in on Trump/Putin collusion. With no luck, of course. He's a pawn in Mueller's game and nothing else. Stringing along Democrats makes Mueller's life easy. It's a no brainer for him to indict someone for something.

D-E-A-D E-N-D. Trump will be exonerated. Bet on it.
