Mueller probing Russia contacts at Republican convention: sources

[blondebanshee]

Mueller’s team has been asking about a convention-related event attended by both Russia’s U.S. ambassador and Jeff Sessions, the first U.S. senator to support Trump and now his attorney general, said one source, who requested anonymity due to the ongoing investigation.

Another issue Mueller’s team has been asking about is how and why Republican Party platform language hostile to Russia was deleted from a section of the document related to Ukraine, said another source who also requested anonymity.

Mueller’s interest in what happened at the Republican convention in Cleveland, Ohio in July 2016, is an indication that Trump campaign contacts and actions related to Russia remain central to the special counsel’s investigation.

5. Wasn't this the whole Mayflower Hotel Russian-meeting thing?

I remember this being super-suspicious early on. Private meetings between Trumplings and Russkies purportedly to finalize the Rosfnet oil deal.

One edit -- yep. Read the article. Finally!
