Mueller investigation: Roger Stone says Russia probe is a ‘speeding bullet’ heading for Trump’s head - The Independent

Donald Trump's former political adviser Roger Stone says that his former boss' presidency is in big danger.

Mr Stone, who on Tuesday pleaded not guilty to seven charges brought forward by special counsel Robert Mueller's office, said that the Russia investigation that brought him to court is basically a "speeding bullet heading for" Mr Trump's head.

The remarks were made on "Breitbart News Daily", a Sirius XM radio show.

The statement comes just after acting attorney general Matthew Whitaker said on Monday that he believes Mr Mueller's investigation is nearing its end, ramping up speculation after nearly two years of a tight-lipped probe into Russia's meddling in the 2016 presidential election.

Mr Stone is among at least 34 people to have been charged in relation to the investigation, and is one of several Trump allies to be caught up in probe.
