Speculation is mounting that Special Counsel Robert Mueller could soon resume issuing subpoenas and indictments, with one report claiming that Donald Trump Jr fears he could be indicted as soon as this week.
Trump Jr has been telling friends he is worried about the possibility of an imminent indictment, three unnamed sources told Vanity Fair.
One source speculated that Mueller could indict him for lying to investigators about whether he told his father in advance about a June 2016 meeting with Russians in Trump Tower to gather dirt on Hillary Clinton.
According to Vanity Fair's source, President Donald Trump is 'very upset' about the legal risks Trump Jr faces.
'The president is very depressed,' this person said.
Tuesday's election ended a two-month 'quiet period' for Mueller's probe, and the special counsel is now expected to resume indictments and possibly attempt to force the President himself to testify under oath.
