Paul Manafort, Roger Stone turn over papers to Senate investigators: Report

Paul Manafort and Roger Stone, two key figures from the Trump campaign, have turned over at least some of their documentation requested by the Senate Intelligence Committee, but a third associate, Carter Page, has not turned over any documents to the committee yet.

The Monday news, reported by NBC, came out less than an hour after Mike Flynn told the same committee he planned to invoke his Fifth Amendment rights in response to a committee subpoena for documents.

The Senate Intelligence Committee is asking all three men for information about their Russian contacts and business dealings. All three are central to the numerous investigations in Washington looking into Russia’s attempt to influence the presidential campaigns, and whether any members of Trump’s team were close to Russia.

But despite a flurry of leaks from the White House and intelligence communities in the last month, still no evidence exists of any cooperation or collusion.

Manafort was Trump’s campaign chairman for a short time in 2016, but resigned from that position after an AP report revealed he had once lobbied on behalf of the ruling party in the Ukraine, which was also a pro-Russia regime.

Stone was a top advisor to Trump during the campaign. Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman John Podesta, accused him of having advance knowledge of the Podesta emails hacked and released by WikiLeaks in the last weeks leading up to election day.

Requests for comment from the top members of the committee were not returned.
