For months, President Donald Trump has railed against an investigation into whether operatives for his surprisingly successful presidential campaign worked with the Russian government to turn the election.

WASHIGNTON : Official Washington was abuzz this weekend over reports that a grand jury has charged at least one person stemming from the US probe of Russia's attempts to tilt the 2016 presidential elections in Donald Trump's favor. There was no indication, in reporting by CNN that other media later confirmed, of who might be charged or what crimes might be alleged in the ongoing inquiry led by former FBI chief Robert Mueller.
President Donald Trump expressed renewed frustration on Sunday over the investigations into alleged ties between his campaign associates and Russian government officials, saying on Twitter that the "facts are pouring out" about links to Russia by his former presidential opponent, Hillary Clinton. Trump's tweets followed a CNN report late on Friday that a federal grand jury in Washington has approved the first charges in a criminal investigation into Russia ties led by special counsel Robert Mueller.
In a series of tweets, Trump said Republicans were now fighting the Russia allegations by looking into Clinton, apparently referring to new House investigations into her e-mail practices and an Obama-era uranium deal with Russia. But the president made it clear he believed that Clinton should be pursued more forcefully, writing, "DO SOMETHING!" He did not specify who should take action or what it should be, though critics have accused him of trying to sway the congressional and special counsel inquiries into Russian ties.
