The Mueller investigation has so far culminated in over a dozen indictments of Russian nationals, who are accused of interfering in the U.S. election process starting in 2014. CNN’s Chris Cillizza tried to take the “didn’t age well” approach:

Cillizza went for the dunk and missed:
Where in the indictment did it mention hacking? Which page? I just read it and didn't see it.

Can you not even dunk on Trump correctly? The indictments today had nothing to do with Russian *hacking*, which is what Trump is denying in that clip https://t.co/2PArOnHTYh

THIS. Is CNN.
Trump's statement was referring to the email hack – indictment doesn't mention the email hack, its just about internet trolls – but you knew that. So your tweet is more fake news.

Fact check: No Russian was found responsible for hacking in these indictments.
