House Committee to look into report on Trump as Russian agent

Congressman Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, said on Saturday that the Judiciary Committee will look into a report in the New York Times alleging that the FBI opened an investigation into whether President Donald Trump may have been secretly working as an agent for Russia.

"We have learned from this reporting that, even in the earliest days of the Trump Administration, the President’s behavior was so erratic and so concerning that the FBI felt compelled to do the unprecedented—open a counterintelligence investigation into a sitting President and his possible cooptation by a hostile foreign government,” Nadler said in a statement.
