Special Counsel Robert Mueller has impaneled a grand jury in Washington to investigate Russia’s interference in the 2016 elections, a sign that his inquiry is growing in intensity and entering a new phase, according to two people familiar with the matter.

I hope that Don the elder explains some facts of life to Donny such as one does not ever lie to a Grand Jury.

John Dowd, one of Trump's personal lawyers, said: "With respect to the news of the grand jury, I can tell you President Trump is not under investigation."

A spokesman for Manafort declined to comment.

Lawyers for Trump Jr. and Kushner did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
So sounds like Junior, Manafort and Kushner will be caught in the first wave.

On their way out of town, the Senate led by Lisa Murkowski blocks Trump from firing Sessions and installing a more pliant AG with a recess appointment.

Sad.

Love how it was Murkowski that issued the one fingered salute to Trump, that was no accident.
