With the Trump administration still dealing with the fallout from National Security Adviser Michael Flynn's resignation over his calls with Russia's ambassador to the United States, the New York Times dropped another bombshell on Tuesday night: Phone records and intercepted calls show members of the Trump campaign and other Trump associates were repeatedly in contact with senior Russian intelligence officials during the campaign, according to four current and former U.S. officials.
The communications were scooped up during routine intelligence collection as U.S. law enforcement and intelligence agencies were investigating Russia's alleged hacking of the Democratic National Committee. CNN reports that the communications during early summer "raised a red flag" owing to their frequency, and the aides' proximity to Trump.

White House counsel Don McGahn briefed Trump and a small group of advisers "immediately after" the DOJ notified McGahn's office that Flynn potentially misled administration officials and was possibly susceptible to Russian blackmail, Spicer said, noting that the counsel's office conducted an "extensive review" of the legality of Flynn's call before Trump "evaluated the truth aspect of it0 -

The officials said the intercepted communications were not limited to Trump campaign officials, and included other associates of Mr. Trump. On the Russian side, the contacts also included members of the government outside of the intelligence services, they said. All of the current and former officials spoke on the condition of anonymity because the continuing investigation is classified.
The officials said that one of the advisers picked up on the calls was Paul Manafort, who was Mr. Trump's campaign chairman for several months last year and had worked as a political consultant in Ukraine. The officials declined to identify the other Trump associates on the calls.
The call logs and intercepted communications are part of a larger trove of information that the F.B.I. is sifting through as it investigates the links between Mr. Trump's associates and the Russian government, as well as the hacking of the D.N.C., according to federal law enforcement officials. As part of its inquiry, the F.B.I. has obtained banking and travel records and conducted interviews, the officials said.0 -
The greatest political assassination since Robert Bork. 0 -
Why do we take serious the Media lament about Russia? We all know the ONLY reason Obama slapped sanctions on Russia was to leave a mine field for Trump to trip on.
Trump should have removed them in front of everyone and said why.0 -

Fake news.
John Podesta got phished; he is a moron.
They got a ton of emails that shows Hillary to be the beioch we all know she is, showed how racist and low class the (D) party is and how they only cared about power and money.
The dude that spoke to the Rooskies out of turn resigned, Trump asked for it and got it. Move on there is nothing more to look at. Hillary lost, her party getting hacked had nothing to do with her loss; it was her being herself that earned the ass kicking she got.0 -
