WASHINGTON (AP) – The Latest on probes into Russian meddling in the 2016 election and possible ties to the Trump campaign (all times local):
8:25 a.m.
President Donald Trump says Jared Kushner, his son-in-law and senior White House adviser, “did very well yesterday in proving he did not collude with the Russians.” Trump also mocked the investigation, suggesting Congress might want to talk to his 11-year-old son next.
Kushner spoke privately Monday with Senate intelligence committee investigators examining ties between Trump’s presidential campaign and the Russian government. U.S. intelligence agencies say Moscow interfered in the 2016 presidential election to benefit Trump.
Kushner later told reporters “I did not collude with Russia,” and that he didn’t know anyone in the campaign who did.
