Nice Fox News talking point.

Paul Manafort's former son-in-law Jeffrey Yohai just pleaded guilty and agreed to cooperate 4 days ago!
All of these people or companies are tied either to meddling in the election or to Trump's campaign.
Paul Manafort is going to plead guilty and cooperate for a lesser sentence in the next few weeks. This will just be more bad news for Trump. Call it speculation if you want, but just watch.
The above list doesn't include:
Carter Page -- He should have been the first one to be indicted based on what we all knew publicly early on. The fact that he hasn't been yet is intriguing. Was he the informant? Has he made a secret plea deal?
Rob Goldstone -- He set up the Trump Tower meeting. He will likely be mentioned when they drop the hammer on all the big fish at the end. He's not a big fish, but he's tied to that meeting which will bring down some biggies.
Jared Kushner -- Criminal marries into a criminal family...of course he does. Same boat with Goldstone.
Don Trump Jr. -- Like criminal father like son. Three person boat with Goldstone and Kushner.
Corey Lewandowski -- Another curious one like Page. Too supportive of Trump at this point to think he's not guilty of something. Would not shock me if he has been working with Mueller, but I have less of a read on him than any of the others.
Ivanka Trump -- She is likely to suffer a money laundering charge. Can't go after her or Don Jr. just yet until they are next to ready to get Trump himself because there is too much that might trigger in the Orange One.
Several unnamed others -- anyone who worked for Trump at any time either on staff or on the campaign, is at risk.
Trump himself -- This is going so far exactly the way investigations like this go...get the lower level fish and the fish who will sing first and then get the big fish.
Michael Avenatti has two other women right now in addition to Stormy Daniels with NDA agreements that he has vetted, and he's waiting to see if they want to go public. He has several others waiting in the wings who just have not been vetted yet. Trump will be charged with all kinds of things just related to this -- bank fraud, money laundering, campaign finance violation, tax evasion as examples.
This has been an amazingly fruitful investigation so far in just over a year. Remember, the investigation wasn't to get Trump...it was to see if the Russians did anything to meddle in the election (they did) and if any on Trump's team helped them (I say they did with the Trump Tower meeting alone, but I will wait to pass judgement until we hear from Mueller). The investigation is not over, so it is incorrect to say they haven't found anything...when in fact they have...but we don't know yet if Mueller determines anything they found to be criminal yet against Trump...we just don't know yet, so again, incorrect to say they haven't found anything. Still investigating.
Mueller is coming.
The clown is done.
