The FBI has been investigating possible ties between Trump's campaign and Russian Federation during the election.

Along the campaign trail, we witnessed then-candidate Donald Trump commit some of the most shocking atrocities, including proudly bragging about sexually assaulting women, and yet, he was still elected president.

"The nearly insane irony of this is that it's what the Republicans tied around Hillary Clinton's neck for a couple of years about her email, saying that by using a private server, she would expose highly classified information to the world", MSNBC host Chris Matthews said on Monday.

On "Special Report", Krauthammer said Trump likely did nothing illegal, but instead committed a blunder.

The real scandal here is that classified information is illegally given out by "intelligence" like candy.

Knowing that any slip up would likely be decisive, Pochettino conceded that his players were lacking a spark on the pitch. The FC crew aren't fooled by Tottenham's defeat at West Ham, which could end their Premier League title hopes.

Since the presidential election, Trump and his associates have come under public scrutiny for their praise and seemingly warm relationship to the Kremlin.

"It's simple: Individuals who are "extremely careless" w/ classified info should be denied further access to it", House Speaker Paul Ryan tweeted last July in response to the FBI's conclusion of its Hillary Clinton email investigation.

According to The Independent, reports surfaced that Trump allegedly leaked classified information to Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Ambassador to the U.S. Sergey Kislyak during their meeting at the White House last week.

Several Republican lawmakers were also critical of the misuse of classified information.

But now it has been reported that President Trump can invite the Russians into the Oval Office, TELL them classified information, and it is okay with the Republicans in Congress and the Senate and half of the American people.
