Scoop: Mueller's hit list

Axios has reviewed a Grand Jury subpoena that Robert Mueller's team sent to a witness last month.

What Mueller is asking for:

Mueller is subpoenaing all communications — meaning emails, texts, handwritten notes, etc. — that this witness sent and received regarding the following people:

Carter Page
Corey Lewandowski
Donald J. Trump
Hope Hicks
Keith Schiller
Michael Cohen
Paul Manafort
Rick Gates
Roger Stone
Steve Bannon

The subpoena asks for all communications from November 1, 2015, to the present. Notably, Trump announced his campaign for president five months earlier — on June 16, 2015.

Bottom line: In December, the president's lawyer Ty Cobb told me the White House would be free of the Mueller investigation "shortly after the first of the year absent some unforeseen delay." We know very little about what's keeping the investigators so busy, but the breadth of this subpoena means Mueller's team could easily stumble into goodies about Trump's inner circle given so many people are coughing up material. (Cobb didn't respond to a request for comment.)

1. Thanks for sharing! That list seems to be missing Flynn, Jr. and Jared.

That might be a clue as to who this particular list was sent to.

[MelissaB]

2. Well, isn't that interesting?

Wonder why he didn't request those?

[Weed Man]

9. Jared may have flipped in secret

When his owners called in the loan, found a way to dump Trump while saving his ass. Not so for NY AG Schniederman

[OhNo-Really]

12. Axios is a new org. Here's a possible scenario

Eric Prince moved his family to Abu Dabi years ag, said he was done woth the USA

The Arab princes have HUGE TRUST PORTFOLIOS invested with Wall Street. HUGE

Wonder if any of them shorted steel last week.

Add Prince to the list....Seychelles

and karma

[OhNo-Really]

13. Just as Eric was moving in, the prince in charge of investments died in glider accident.

Sovereign Wealth Funds. Enough to buy mercenaries?

19. Also missing Kellyanne Conway

or however you spell her name.

3. Recommended.

For a nothing burger, there certainly are a lot of names from Trump's circle.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

4. Be still my heart. Nt

[OhNo-Really]

5. There's no source for this info. But who cares. Book em Danno!

14. Axios didn't say who at their organization go to look at the subpoena,

but that they did. ????

[OhNo-Really]

16. I know. I'm a bit leary of Axios. A very recent spin off from Politico

Bit of an interesting history.

Thank you MelissaB for your work.

[OhNo-Really]

20. This is an example of how "news" is sometimes made. Dailybeast is now reporting Axios story

Under journalism standards this isn't a credible news story.

It is a hope story 😂😂😂

[Mr. Ected]

6. Sad not to see Mike Pence's name on the list

Tie that mother down.

[Nictuku]

8. That was my first thought

[triron]

10. Pence is caught up in this somewhere. I cannot believe it is otherwise.

[MelissaB]

11. I don't think this is a complete list. Here's why:

[Volaris]

17. I don't think anyone here wants to know about the Vice President's sex life.

[Botany]

7. Now who is #3 on the list?????

Donald J. Trump

[kentuck]

15. It's difficult to dig up a den of snakes...

and not find any snakes.

[Tatiana]

18. This particular thread represents a very specific line of inquiry.

So I wouldn't be alarmed over the fact that there is no Jarvanka there. For all we know, the "witness" could be Ivanka herself (leaking personally damaging information before her name becomes associated, like her bother Junior did with the Trump Tower meeting).

There is little doubt that there is a looming indictment with Jared's name on it.

[MelissaB]

21. I agree!

I hope we get Jared this week.

[triron]

22. Jared will be indicted.
