So where's the shit on President Trump? We have tracked & killed Terrorists innless time. NOTHINGBURGER. Stay weak minded LOL LOL..

Did the Hillary investigations turn a profit or any indictments?

Chump change.

The most successful 'witch hunt' ever !

Everything that involves trump is corrupt

A fine, and a stern warning to 'go, and sin no more.'

See? The Mueller investigation more than pays for itself. It even yields large profits!

The Mueller investigation is gonna pay off the National debt if he keeps it up.

which is the amount they took from him. This firm bills over 2 billion a year - this isn't a 'win' for justice. It's a tap on the wrist for a firm with connections to the powerful & corrupt on both sides of the aisle. Let's see the principles criminally charged, fined & jailed.

They should be disbarred not just pay a fine. When are we going to hold crooked lawyers and law firms accountable? When pigs fly it seems. ABA has no credibility anymore.

ChristopherJM No punitive damages

shaunking More profit from the investigation. Should be considerably more though.

shaunking TRUMPS WALL SURVEY. PLEASE LET HIM KNOW AND RETWEET 1-800-350-6647

shaunking So still no collusion with POTUS realDonaldTrump though?

shaunking A slap on the wrist but I’ll take it

Let that sink in

Ok..they shouldn't have done it

So how does this $4.7M settlement money get used? Lets finish the story Politico!

Put the name of the damn 'law' firm in the headline, why doncha

REFORMATE the Entire Intel Community! The FBI has zero credibility left!

Wow, so surprised. Said no one, ever.

No, no, no! 'Misleading' the Justice Department means you either lied, concealed evidence, or obstructed justice. Stop with the slaps on the wrist! Who's going to jail for this? The American people don't want fines. They want these 'white collar' criminals to go to jail!

The Mueller investigation is making serious money - over $50 Million so far!

it should read, a former prestigious law firm.

The pieces are coming together. Nice.

How disappointing that a top law firm would soil itself like that. What else have they done?

Hotdamm! The US is chock full of traitorous scumbags working in return for piles of Putin and oligarch cash.

TheRickWilson was right ETTD and everything Manafort touches is crippled . . .

Obama related firm ! Why do you never post the truth ?

Why do rich people get to buy their way out of trouble but those with less have to pay with their lives?

Looks like Meuller is paying his way...

so the OBAMA Supporters got to BUY their way out of JAIL ... but trump's campaign manager must go to jail for a LESSer crime ... that sounds like MORE Proof that Mueller is indeed on a Hate Trump WitchHunt ... not the pursuit of JUSTICE

Unlike the tax cut, the Mueller investigation continues to help pay for itself!

jeffgoldesq They willingly lied to the Feds....those attorneys should be disbarred ! Manafort UkraineConnection

Wait, wait,wait... that headline doesnt mention Obama lawyer, Greg Craig's involvement as the one who misled DOJ & apparently failed to file proper paperwork.. That's buried in this story....unforgiveable

IMAGINE THAT

Proof All people of the 'LAW' should never be trusted.

Not going to report on Ohr, huh? corruptmedia

Mueller investigation has more than paid for itself.

… let's see if The Podesta Group & Tony Podesta are treated the same way by Mueller et. al. … sbg1 peterbakernyt

Huh? renato_mariotti

Was the Mueller case that was so secretive?

wow.

The Mueller investigation is doing more to balance the budget than the realDonaldTrump GOP TaxScam

PerkinsJanie 👍

at this point, the Russia probe is more profitable than Trump's hotels

How many more of these traitors..selling out to RUSSIA..sobs.

Someone should go to jail. Keep the fine - but someone should go to jail.

Would you have canceled Ms Pelosi's trip if she had been to Russia?
