Donald Trump has described the probe into alleged Russian meddling in the 2016 US presidential election as a "witch hunt", amid reports the first charges in the criminal investigation could be laid as early as today.
He added that Democrats are using the Russian "witch hunt" for "evil politics", while adding that Republicans are "fighting back like never before".
Mr Trump's latest tweets follow reports over the weekend that a federal grand jury in Washington had approved the first charges in the criminal investigation led by special counsel Robert Mueller.
Robert Mueller: 'A perfect choice'
The former FBI director is the perfect choice to lead an investigation into alleged Russian interference in the US election.
The indictment was sealed under orders from a federal judge, but has been reported by US media outlets citing sources who said they had been briefed on the matter.
It was not clear what the charges were or who the target was, with reports adding the indictment could be unsealed as early as today.
In his latest Twitter outburst, Mr Trump again raised accusations based on reports from last week that Mrs Clinton's campaign and the Democrats helped fund a shocking dossier that contained salacious material about the US President, while also raising other accusations against the Clintons.
"Never seen such Republican ANGER & UNITY as I have concerning the lack of investigation on Clinton made Fake Dossier (now $12,000,000?), the Uranium to Russia deal, the 33,000 plus deleted Emails, the Comey fix and so much more," he wrote.
