Agencies probe Kremlin aid to Trump in U S election
FBI and five other agencies have jointly investigated for months alleged Kremlin funding to influence the November vote. The probe examines money moving from Russia to support Trump, including schemes involving Russian pensioners and intermediaries. The effort also reviews links to Trump associates and Russian figures, with references to Steele reports and possible FISA warrants. The narrative notes uncertainty over whether a FISA warrant was issued and points to a broader inquiry into Russian influence operations.
