The indictment announced on Friday was the first criminal case to accuse Russians of seeking to influence the outcome of the U.S. election.
The Internet Research Agency, a Russian organization, and the defendants began working in 2014 to interfere in U.S. elections, according to the indictment in Washington. They used false personas and social media while also staging political rallies and communicating with unwitting individuals associated with the Trump campaign, it said.
The goal was to disparage Hillary Clinton and to assist the election of Donald Trump.
Muellers office said that none of the defendants was in custody.
Willie, try spamming LF with "news" that actually matters.
You DO realize that God will judge you for your non-stop HATE and ENVY? And for spreading your LIES and false gossip?
Jesus said, "Blessed are the Peacemakers" -- NOT, "Blessed are the False Rumor-Mongers and those who CREATE war and strife..."
Try reporting on the Comey-Mueller BFF relationship and FAKE Witch Hunt; OR, the entire collusion and conspiracy by Dem-GOPe operatives to pay foreign agents to create FAKE "Dossiers," falsify records, lying under oath, violating FISA requests, conspiring to overthrow the President of the United State of America.
TRUTH: The ENTIRE 0bama-Hitlery Machine weaponizing DNC/FBI/DoJ. Treasonous 0bama Loyalists wasted their time, resources and assets to first blatantly STEAL an election, to frame first candidate Donald Trump, then PRESIDENT Donald Trump in what was and still is an ongoing COUP...
THAT is the Big Story. NOT the petty BS you and what the Liberal-Regressive Dem "Resistance" gushes over.
Hateful Lefty-Commie sociopaths and Stasi like yourself will not be happy until you've started a war with Russia, or there are hundreds of mass shootings across the USA.
