MSNBC: Intel Agencies Investigating Ties Between Trump Associates and Russia

‘The New York Times released the report citing anonymous sources saying the investigation centers in part on Trump’s former campaign chairman Paul Manafort’

BRZEZINSKI: "On the morning of Donald Trump’s inauguration, there are new reports that allege the FBI, aided by the NSA and CIA and Treasury Department, are reviewing intercepted communications and financial transactions between Russian officials and associates of the Trump campaign. 'The New York Times' released the report citing anonymous sources saying the investigation centers in part on Trump’s former campaign chairman Paul Manafort who has done business in Ukraine and Russia and who, according to the report, had contacts abroad that were under surveillance by the National Security Agency for suspected links to Russia’s Federal Security Service, the successor of the KGB. Last night, Manafort denied contact with the Russian government or Russian officials. The report says the ties of two other Trump campaign associates are being looked at: Carter Page, a businessman and former foreign policy adviser to the campaign, and Roger Stone, a longtime Republican operative. Stone says it’s false."
