I've been reading up on this a bit. Nothing really surprising in this. Interesting to note that some of the wording in the indictment (referring to Trump Campaign staffer(s) as "unwitting") point to there likely not being any collusion charges coming down the road. Again, not surprising to me, but just wanted to point that out.
Lots in there about Russians promoting Sander and Trump, some about them trying to suppress the minority vote. They were successful in their goals, I don't think we can deny that based upon what we are seeing, and that includes the continued efforts to sow discord in American society.
