Washington (CNN)The FBI has information that indicates associates of President Donald Trump communicated with suspected Russian operatives to possibly coordinate the release of information damaging to Hillary Clinton's campaign, US officials told CNN.
This is partly what FBI Director James Comey was referring to when he made a bombshell announcement Monday before Congress that the FBI is investigating the Trump campaign's ties to Russia, according to one source.
The FBI is now reviewing that information, which includes human intelligence, travel, business and phone records and accounts of in-person meetings, according to those U.S. officials. The information is raising the suspicions of FBI counterintelligence investigators that the coordination may have taken place, though officials cautioned that the information was not conclusive and that the investigation is ongoing.
In his statement on Monday Comey said the FBI began looking into possible coordination between Trump campaign associates and suspected Russian operatives because the bureau had gathered "a credible allegation of wrongdoing or reasonable basis to believe an American may be acting as an agent of a foreign power."
The White House did not comment and the FBI declined to comment.
White House press secretary Sean Spicer maintained Monday after Comey's testimony that there was no evidence to suggest any collusion took place.
"Investigating it and having proof of it are two different things," Spicer said.
One law enforcement official said the information in hand suggests "people connected to the campaign were in contact and it appeared they were giving the thumbs up to release information when it was ready." But other U.S. officials who spoke to CNN say it's premature to draw that inference from the information gathered so far since it's largely circumstantial.

I would love to see InfoWars allowed here. There are many good newsclips that have information I find nowhere else.
I figure that if InfoWars is good enough for Matt Drudge and President Trump to appear/be interviewed on, then it should be good enough for FR. But, I’m not the owner.... : )
No names of the officials who supposedly have this information? That makes this pretty much like every other MSM pimped “Trump is doomed story” I have ever seen.
Didn’t they say that last week.... And the week before....And the week before...Etc. etc.
Actually, I’m glad it gets posted once in a while. Otherwise, I’d never know what those a**holes were up to.

Good grief. Fake Fake Fake.
We know for certain that John Podesta did.

We already know they are liars. Infowars is banned here and they are for Trump. Go figure.
What the hell does “appeared to give the thumbs up” mean? I think this is the cover up excuse for their guilt on the Nunes bombshell.
apart from the GENERAL INSANITY of the Fake News MSM, there’s this -

Excellent. Thank you.
God bless CNN which is allowed to lie all it wanted protected by the First Amendment. The same First Amendment that allows me to call them dark-hearted, hateful, fake news.

To a sane individual, there is nothing here.. But to millions of twisted Americans, there is enough here to string up Trump and all of his supporters. And it’s going to keep coming.
This is a war.
When does Trump take the gloves off?
Its all “Sources say” and “may have” and “possibly”
This is trash of the worst kind.
These are questions CNN didn't ask. After attempts to minimize, CNN switched focus. They moaned over the fact that Nunes went to Trump before Schiff, that Nunes is biased (like Schiff isn't - citing from the unproven dirty dossier in his opening statement of the investigation), and the proceeded to show Schiff's press conference,, do an interview with Schiff after, and have an interview with another Democrat (Jim Hines), and proceed to say the investigation into Russia "hacking" the election (CNN said election could not be hacked weeks prior to the election) has now been compromised in the House.
As a poster postulated to me, when he gets his supreme court nominee approved.
The MSM and the Democrat Party are a Clandestine operation set to overthrow our government and Constitution.I suggest all honorable people to arm themselves to the best of your ability if you do not want a dictatrship.
