The Trump team tried to cover up every single one of them.

On April 18, 2019, a redacted copy of Special Counsel Robert Muellers Report On The Investigation Into Russian Interference In The 2016 Presidential Election (Mueller Report) was released to the public. The Mueller report builds on the U.S. intelligence communitys conclusion that there were two campaigns to elect Donald Trump one run by Trump and one run by the Russian government. The Mueller report clearly identified collusionbetween the Trump campaign and Russia, despite repeated denials from Trump and many of his senior advisers and close associates that there were any connections between the two campaigns.
A total of 272 contacts between Trumps team and Russia-linked operatives have been identified, including at least 38 meetings. And we know that at least 33 high-ranking campaign officials and Trump advisers were aware of contacts with Russia-linked operatives during the campaign and transition, including Trump himself. None of these contacts were ever reported to the proper authorities. Instead, the Trump team tried to cover up every single one of them.
Beyond the many lies the Trump team told to the American people, Mueller himself repeatedly remarked on how far the Trump team was willing to go to hide their Russian contacts, stating, the investigation established that several individuals affiliated with the Trump Campaign lied to the Office, and to Congress, about their interactions with Russian-affiliated individuals and related matters. Those lies materially impaired the investigation of Russian election interference.
