Mueller Questions Trump Friend

Investigators working for special counsel Robert Mueller have interviewed real estate investor Tom Barrack, one of President Trump’s closest friends and confidants, the Associated Press reports.

“One of the people who spoke to AP said the questioning focused entirely on two officials from Trump’s campaign who have been indicted by Mueller: Trump’s former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, and Manafort’s onetime deputy, Rick Gates.”

“A second person with knowledge of the Barrack interview said the questioning was broader, including financial matters about the campaign, the transition and Trump’s inauguration in January 2017.”
