Apppearing on the on-line only Overtime segment of HBOs Real Time, ex-CIA officer Philip Mudd said that while the media is focusing on ex-Trump advisor Carter Page, it is likely that federal investigators are working on flipping other Trump transition officials to testify against their bosses.
What do you think will come of the investigation into Trump campaign adviser Cater Page and his ties to Russia, and I might add Michael Flynn, host Bill Maher asked Mudd.
Look, the reason Carter Page is being featured is because hes prominent in the press, not because hes the most prominent target of the FBI, Mudd remarked. I think there will eventually be an indictment. Somebody going to be indicted, I dont know if its going to be Carter Page I think hes chump change, I think its someone higher up.
Asked to elaborate, Mudd explained that, based on what the FBI has heard from their intercepts of Trump transition officials talking with Russian officials, they will use that evidence to get those officials to flip and spill what they know in order to avoid being indicted on federal charges.
