Trump Team And Russia

... The biggest development arguably this week involved Carter Page .. a campaign adviser to ..Trump. And .. the FBI obtained a secret court order to monitor his communications ... last summer. Now .. the FBI would have had to convince a judge that there was .. cause to believe Page was working as a foreign agent ...

... this is the clearest evidence we have seen so far that the FBI had reason to believe a Trump campaign adviser was in touch with Russian agents ...

Paul Manafort .. Trump's campaign chairman .. was forced to step down .. because of questions about his ties to Ukraine and Russia ...

And .. this week Manafort revealed that he would register as a foreign agent for lobbying work ... He's registering retroactively .. an admission that he should have registered as a foreign agent before and he didn't ...

... Michael Flynn ... Jeff Sessions ... Jared Kushner ... None ... of them have been especially forthcoming about contacts .. with Russian officials ...
