President Trumps frustrations are reaching a new intensity as federal and congressional probes into alleged links with Russia burrow deeper into his inner circle.
On Monday morning, hours before Trumps son-in-law and senior adviser, Jared Kushner, met with investigators from the Senate Intelligence Committee, the president took to Twitter to deliver a barrage of criticism.
In quick succession, Trump took aim at the Democratic Party, Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.), Crooked Hillary Clinton and Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), the ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, whom called sleazy.
As if that were not enough, Trump raised eyebrows even among Republicans by calling his attorney general, Jeff Sessions, beleaguered.
In all those instances, Trump was arguing that allegations about Russia and its potential connections his campaign are unfair.
But the most significant thing may be the timing of Trumps fusillade. It came amid rising pressure on all sides.
