Preet Bharara: More Charges to Come in Mueller Russia Probe

Former U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara believes there will be additional charges stemming from special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia investigation.

Bharara, who was fired by President Donald Trump earlier this year, made his prediction in a Monday tweet. In the tweet, Bharara posted a portion of what appears to be a court filing on former Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos, who pleaded guilty to lying to FBI agents looking into allegations of collusion between the Trump presidential campaign and the Russians, The Hill noted.

Word of Papadopoulos' plea came after it was announced charges had been filed against former campaign officials Paul Manafort and Rick Gates, according to The Hill.
