cnn reported on friday a federal grand jury has approved the first charges in the inquiry led by special counsel robert mueller. trey gowdy sending mueller for allowing the media to learn of the development. >> we don't know who's been charged, with there being charged for. it was stressing to hand the importance of cutting out the leaks with respect to serious investigations. make no mistake, the material is a violation of law. >> adam schiff, top democrat had this to say about who could be indicted. >> the two people and press reporting that it's likely to be mike flynn or paul manafort. i don't think it's been appropriate for paul manafort to tell us. cheryl: president trump unleashing it power storm of three services.

never seen such unity and anger over this fake dossier now 12 million. urania to russian deal. the comey fixes so much more instead they look at phony transgression of pollution which doesn't exist. dems are usually the witchhunt for evil politics. but now fighting back like never before. so much kill by democrats. we are going to take a closer look at the developing story with david bruno in just a few moments. >> investigators want answers after learning hillary clinton in the democratic committee. calling on john podesta, former dnc chair debbie wasserman schultz and others to testify before the senate intelligence

committee. >> it is difficult to imagine that a campaign chairman, and the head the dnc would not know of an expenditure of this magnitude in significant, but perhaps there's something more going on here. >> clinton's campaign used fusion gps opposition research on the president. cheryl: for more on this in the latest mobile investigation, criminal defense attorney and prosecutor david or no. good morning. first off come making the speculation this morning. he was indicted, arrested today. a couple of big names out there. versus paul manafort, one of the bigger names being floated around in general michael flynn. of those two names, we will start with paul manafort.

50/50, 37 day we will see manafort today. >> not to put a specific number on it, but the fact that search warrant executed on his home earlier this year is a good sign. for this search warrant to be authorized from there has to be determination of probable cause that evidence of crime would be in place. that is number one. as far as flynn, the root ports are in fact he made improper disclosures and who knows what these two gentlemen about all the potential different crimes at play here. it is again like you said speculation at this because that hasn't been shown to my charges. cheryl: mike flynn in particular has been telling people quietly in washington that he expects to be indicted. that is something the selling friends and associates that he knows the coming. what about the smaller fish in all smaller fish in all of this, lower-level indictments. you go about someone that has

knowledge they brought in front of the grand jury. maybe that is someone that can flip the bigger fish in the story. what he think of that train of thinking? >> absolutely. the page out of the federal playbook. if a person is charged on the day is charged come available here and is charged on the day the lawyer and there will be discussions between the defense attorney in the united states attorney and there will be some offers made. number one come a defendant like the opportunity to come into the federal building and under certain protections give a statement that can be used against them called a proffer working for a day. if the person agrees to cooperate, then they could be given some leniency or mitigation ultimately in their own case. that is that the fed do and it's very common in federal practice. cheryl: it's interesting because on one side you've got the mueller investigation that's been going on in part of it is james comey and the firing of james comey and some on the left

they are hoping basically you'll see some charge come against president trump in particular. all of this could be an investigation of this side, kind if everything is on the table. should the president be worried? >> no. i've been on this program multiple times on these obstruction piece with firing comey on those issues. he's the sitting president. he will not be indicted. you will not be charged. the proper process will be through impeachment. of all the people in this world coming donald trump should be the one person they should not be concerned today. cheryl: if you're federal prosecutor right now, obviously you follow the money trail. one of the other pieces would land in the revelation of the last week or so, the dnc to hillary clinton who commanded the dossier that basically was written by the british

intelligence agency that was asserting the term campaign was colluding with the russians. it was robert mueller do you pay attention to this? >> i think he would have to given the reporting on it and to be transparent and objective he certainly should. it would fit into the purview of the rosenstein order which is very broad. it is the russian probe and anything that is unrivaled or revealed during the investigation so certainly that would be something he could look at. >> david bruno, great to have your legal mind on alt. this morning. thanks, david. >> pleasure. thanks for having me. transfer the tax plan, republicans will reveal details on wednesday. kevin mccarthy telling maria bartiromo to maria bartiromo to plan will help middle-class americans. >> we doubled the standard deduction so if in the couple now that the first $24,000
