A federal grand jury in Washington, DC has indicted 13 Russian nationals and a Kremlin-linked internet firm on charges that they had meddled in the 2016 presidential election.

The US government said Russian entities began interfering in US political processes, including the 2016 presidential election, as early as 2014, according to a court document.

[...] The charges – which include conspiracy, wire fraud, bank fraud and aggravated identity theft – are the most direct allegations to date of illegal Russian meddling in the election.

    Thank you for your support! Many people are saying that Crooked Hillary spent about $1 billion. I spent much less -- and a lot of it came back to me, to the Trump Organization. My campaign rented offices in Trump Tower, rooms in my hotels, so many things. We can call it an investment, I love that word.

    In this investigation, the facts are incorrect. I never said Russia did not meddle in the election, I said "it may be Russia, or China or another country or group, or it may be a 400 pound genius sitting in bed and playing with his computer." The Russian "hoax" was that the Trump campaign colluded with Russia -- it never did. NO COLLUSION!!!!
