Federal Investigators Wiretapped Manafort
“U.S. investigators wiretapped former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort under secret court orders before and after the election, sources tell CNN, an extraordinary step involving a high-ranking campaign official now at the center of the Russia meddling probe.”
“The government snooping continued into early this year, including a period when Manafort was known to talk to President Trump.”
Meanwhile, the New York Times reports that prosecutors told Manafort they planned to indict him when they raided his home in July.
“Dispensing with the plodding pace typical of many white-collar investigations, Mr. Mueller’s team has used what some describe as shock-and-awe tactics to intimidate witnesses and potential targets of the inquiry.”
