WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A grand jury has issued subpoenas in connection with a June 2016 meeting that included President Donald Trump's son, his son-in-law and a Russian lawyer, two sources told Reuters on Thursday, signaling an investigation is gathering pace into suspected Russian meddling in the 2016 U.S. election.

The sources added that U.S. Special Counsel Robert Mueller had convened the grand jury investigation in Washington to help examine allegations of Russian interference in the vote. One of the sources said it was assembled in recent weeks.

Russia has loomed large over the first six months of the Trump presidency. U.S. intelligence agencies have concluded that Russia worked to tilt the presidential election in Trump's favor. Mueller, who was appointed special counsel in May, is leading the probe, which also examines potential collusion by the Trump campaign with Russia.

Moscow denies any meddling and Trump denies any collusion by his campaign, while regularly denouncing the investigations as political witch hunts.

At a rally in Huntington, West Virginia, on Thursday night, Trump said: "Most people know there were no Russians in our campaign. ... We didn't win because of Russia. We won because of you."

Mueller's use of a grand jury could give him expansive tools to pursue evidence, including issuing subpoenas and compelling witnesses to testify. The Wall Street Journal earlier reported a grand jury was impaneled.

Here we go.

Edit: For what it's worth, though:

"Given that Mueller inherited an investigation that began months ago, it would suggest that he has uncovered information pointing in the direction of criminal charges. But against whom is the real question."


It was not immediately clear to whom subpoenas were issued and the sources did not elaborate.


But still, shit is moving along in this backed-up, festering colon. This presidential shit-show could be a bowel movement in the next couple of months if they find anything fucked up.

Well, a bowel movement suggests an expulsion of waste.

There are also bipartisan efforts to protect Mueller from getting fired like Comey did

Honestly, the "who" doesn't matter - the Director of the FBI just got subpoenas to come after your ass. Who cares if it's you, your son, your son-in-law, your daughter, your ex-wife...it's the Director of the FBI. You're done.

How do we sound upset? Nothing in what I typed conveys that emotion.

We just think you are boring.

Mueller isn't the director of the FBI. It was Comey and Comey was fired. Mueller took over the investigation. The new FBI Director is Wray.
