Robert Mueller hands federal prosecutors inquiries into lobbyists as foreign agents: Report

Cases involving the work of longtime Democratic lobbyist Tony Podesta, former Obama White House counsel Greg Craig, and former Minnesota Republican Rep. Vin Weber are among those referred to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York by special counsel Robert Mueller, according to a new report.

CNN reports the inquiries involve whether lobbyists and operatives failed to register their work as foreign agents and were referred to the New York federal prosecutors earlier this spring.
