Special counsel Robert Mueller secured a guilty plea on Tuesday from Alex van der Zwaan, a London-based lawyer who admitted to lying to the FBI. He had contacts with Rick Gates, the former Trump associate who pleaded not guilty in October to charges from Mueller’s team that included conspiracy, fraud and money laundering.

NPR’s Phil Ewing (@philewing) joins Here & Now‘s Jeremy Hobson for an update on Mueller’s investigation.
