Rosie O’Donnell hopeful Donald Trump arrested, charged by grand jury

According to reports, a federal grand jury approved the first charges in the investigation being led by special counsel Robert Mueller.  It’s not known who the intended target is, but that didn’t stop Trump-hater Rosie O’Donnell from hoping the target would be the president or perhaps someone very close to him.

“OH HAPPY DAY,” she tweeted in all caps.

She then expressed hope that Donald Trump Jr., would be the target of the indictment.

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

According to CNN:

A federal grand jury in Washington, DC, on Friday approved the first charges in the investigation led by special counsel Robert Mueller, according to sources briefed on the matter.

The charges are still sealed under orders from a federal judge. Plans were prepared Friday for anyone charged to be taken into custody as soon as Monday, the sources said. It is unclear what the charges are.

A spokesman for the special counsel’s office declined to comment. Mueller was appointed in May to lead the investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election.

The report further said:

On Friday, top lawyers who are helping to lead the Mueller probe, including veteran prosecutor Andrew Weissmann, were seen entering the court room at the DC federal court where the grand jury meets to hear testimony in the Russia investigation.

Reporters present saw a flurry of activity at the grand jury room, but officials made no announcements.

Shortly after President Donald Trump abruptly fired then-FBI Director James Comey, Rosenstein appointed Mueller as special counsel. Mueller took the reins of a federal investigation that Comey first opened in July 2016 in the middle of the presidential campaign.

There are, of course, questions being raised about the timing of this report, given what we now know about who paid for the fake Trump dossier cobbled together by Fusion GPS.

A report at Fox News says:

Critics question whether Mueller’s own ties to the bureau as well as fired FBI director James Comey now render him compromised as he investigates allegations of Russian meddling and collusion with Trump officials in the 2016 race.

“The federal code could not be clearer – Mueller is compromised by his apparent conflict of interest in being close with James Comey,” Rep. Trent Franks, R-Ariz., who first called for Mueller to step down over the summer, said in a statement to Fox News on Friday. “The appearance of a conflict is enough to put Mueller in violation of the code. … All of the revelations in recent weeks make the case stronger.”

Nevertheless, the report was enough to give O’Donnell — who questioned whether she would survive the Trump presidency — reason to live for another day.

But, Twitchy said Saturday:

O’Donnell got her #Resistance following all excited. Now all that remains to be seen is if they’re about to be horribly let down. And not to let Rosie down, but it looks like Trump might be squeezing in some golf today…
