Republican-led Senate panel details ties between 2016 Trump campaign and Russian interference
WASHINGTON — In a thousand-page bipartisan report released Tuesday, the Senate Intelligence Committee said the Trump administration obstructed its investigation with"novel claims" of executive privilege. It painted a portrait of a Trump campaign eager to accept help from a foreign power in 2016.
"Separate from Steele's memos, which the Committee did not use for support, the Committee became aware of three general sets of allegations" involving women, the report said, two of which described a tape. No such allegations were confirmed, but the finding lent new credence to at least one claim in the widely discredited Steele dossier.
Story continuesThe committee said it also developed evidence that Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort may have been connected to the Russian operation to steal and leak Democratic emails. If that had been proven in court, it would have constituted"collusion," by any definition, but no such charge ever was brought.
On Ukraine, the report said that Russian-government operatives from late 2016 until at least January 2020 consistently spread"overlapping false narratives which sought to discredit investigations into Russian interference in the 2016 elections and spread false information about the events of 2016."
