Russia interfered in our 2016 election. The Trump campaign welcomed that help. Trump repeatedly tried to dismantle the investigation into this hostile foreign government’s interference through a pattern of bullying, deceit and obstruction. #NoOneIsAboveTheLaw #MuellerHearing
The #Mueller Report resulted in 37 criminal indictments and 7 guilty pleas. The Report revealed 10 instances where the President obstructed justice and he also repeatedly instructed people to lie to investigators for him. #NoOneIsAboveTheLaw #MuellerHearing
The Russian government interfered in the 2016 presidential election in “sweeping and systematic fashion”—through a social media campaign, and releasing hacked documents—in an effort to secure the outcome of a Trump presidency and harm Hillary Clinton’s candidacy. #MuellerHearing
Mueller indicted 13 Russian nationals + 3 Russian entities w/ interfering w/ U.S. elections; Russian military officers w/ conspiring to hack Clinton Campaign, DNC, DCCC & Russian military officers w/ conspiracy to hack computers of U.S. officials involved in 2016 U.S. election.
Trump tried to interfere with Mueller's investigation + attempted to cover up when it was discovered. Trump officials destroyed evidence. Trump directed WH officials to lie, suppress evidence, then lied about it himself. Trump & his attorneys tried to intimidate witnesses.
