Mueller Now Investigating Democratic Lobbyist Tony Podesta.
Oct 23 2017
WASHINGTON — Tony Podesta and the Podesta Group are now the subjects of a federal investigation being led by Special Counsel Robert Mueller ...
Under FARA, people who lobby on behalf of foreign governments, leaders or political parties must file detailed disclosures about their spending and activities with the Justice Department. Willful failure to file the forms is a felony and can result in up to five years in prison, though such prosecutions are rare.
The Podesta Group amended its FARA registration to accurately reflect its work with ECMU only after the payments were reported by the media.
