Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Richard Burr shared information with the White House about the FBI’s probe into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election, according to a redacted version of special counsel Robert Mueller’s report released Thursday.
According to the report, those individuals include former national security adviser Michael Flynn, former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort, campaign associate Carter Page and a person identified as “Greek Guy,” likely referring to campaign adviser George Papadopoulos. Mueller’s team cited notes that Donaldson took on Burr’s briefing. Those materials “on their face reference the FBI, the Department of Justice, and Comey,” the report states, referring to then-FBI Director James Comey. The notes, the report continues, “track the background materials prepared by the FBI for Comey’s briefing to” a group of high-ranking lawmakers that included Burr.
Burr’s Senate investigation has generally retained its reputation as being serious and bipartisan, even amid Nunes’ hijinks in the House and Republicans in both chambers defending Trump.

Herman Cain appears to lack the support for Senate confirmation to Fed seatHerman Cain, who President Trump has been considering for a nomination to the Federal Reserve board, does not appear to have enough support to be confirmed by the Republican-controlled Senate. SOUNDS ABOUT WHITE...... Considering all the other scumbag appointies the Republican Senate has pushed through for Trump I'm guessing Cain's biggest disqualifier is the fact that he's black So that means both nominations should be rejected. Herman Cain has been on two different state boards. He is more qualified than Steven brown nose. So they both should be out.
