Neither of the Podestas has been charged with anything.
It's not illegal to voluntarily leave your firm (and I can think of a lot of reasons to do so that aren't criminal). It's also not illegal to be the brother of someone who leaves the firm voluntarily. It's not illegal to be a campaign manager or to fund opposition research either.
Unless/until Tony or John Podesta are charged or there's some evidence of criminal activity presented............all the speculation comes across as deflection, as far as I'm concerned.
I'm not saying they didn't commit crimes, just that all I'm hearing is innuendo. If one or both of the Podestas did commit crimes against the government or financial crimes, Mueller is the type of prosecutor who will go after them (as it should be).
