Senate intel committee probing over 2,000 Trump docs from Treasury Dept. financial crimes unit

The Senate intelligence committee is combing through a trove of more 2,000 documents regarding the finances of President Donald Trump and his associates, a report by Bloomberg reveals. They received the documents from the Department of Justices financial crimes unit.
According to the report, the intelligence committees investigation of potential collusion between Trumps campaign and Russia is now focused sharply on transactions of the presidents associates, ostensibly to find evidence of payments made to or from Kremlin-backed firms or individuals.
In addition to the more than 2,000 documents they received from the Treasury, Senate Intelligence Committee Vice Chairman Mark Warner (D-VA) told Bloomberg their investigation is entering a higher profile phase as they prepare to interview the presidents associates like his son-in-law and adviser Jared Kushner.
In the meantime, the report noted, Democrats in the House have accused both the Treasury and Republicans of stonewalling as they attempt to gather information for their investigation into Trumps alleged presidential improprieties.
