Special counsel Robert Mueller is using a federal grand jury in Washington to help collect information as he probes Russia’s meddling in the 2016 election and possible collusion by Trump campaign associates, according to three people familiar with the investigation.
Mueller is turning to the Washington grand jury in addition to one in Alexandria, Virginia, that’s already been involved in the inquiry, said the people, who asked not to be identified discussing a sensitive legal matter. During a speech at a rally in West Virginia later Thursday, the president would lash out once again at the investigation, calling it a "total fabrication."
