Trump and Putin, behind the scenes

The plot thickens..

Until now, there has been no public acknowledgement from US lawmakers or the intelligence community of concrete evidence tying Trump or his associates to collusion with the Kremlin. But in an interview on MSNBC Wednesday, Rep. Adam Schiff, a California Democrat and ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee, said of the investigation: "There is more than circumstantial evidence now." Schiff declined to go into specifics when pressed by host Chuck Todd. "But I will say there is evidence that is not circumstantial," Schiff said, "and it is very much worthy of investigation." Schiff's comments echo a CNN report published Wednesday evening that cited unnamed US officials who told the network the FBI has information indicating people associated with Trump may have coordinated with suspected Russian operatives on the release of information damaging to Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election. The information includes "human intelligence, travel, business and phone records and accounts of in-person meetings," CNN reported, citing its sources.
