5:21Now PlayingThe FBI probe of the Trump administration is reportedly going “quicker” and “deeper” than investigators anticipated. It appears to now be focused on financial crimes. Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"The Post reported last week that the investigation of collusion between President Trump’s campaign and Russian officials had identified a person of interest, “someone close to the president” who is a current White House official. We are not talking about Carter Page (a low-level hanger-on whom the campaign tried to disown) or former campaign chief Paul Manafort (whom Sean Spicer said played a “very limited role”) or even Michael Flynn, none of whom work in the White House currently.
“Current administration officials who have acknowledged contacts with Russian officials include President Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, as well as Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson,” The Post reported. In that list of three, only Kushner worked on the campaign, works in the White House and has known Russian contacts. This investigation seems to be about more than some low-level campaign staffer shooting the breeze with a Russian diplomat. If it is a very senior person, especially if it is Kushner, it will be hard for many to believe that Trump was not aware of what was going on.”*
