These records may or may not pertain to, the bureau from what i understand from the conference call today, the fbi was one of the agencies, the principle agencies that was wanting these documents held back. the cia had no problem with a lot of these entities, but u again, like bob said and i have agreed all along, theyve had 25 years. to work these things out. >> and farris, what about what bob is talking about? youre talking about this meeting in mexico city as well with the kgb and oswald. the...

Intelligence folks, they know that they have to follow the money and they brought in the best experts do that. >> matthew, same question. >> i think mieke is exactly right. look, in all of these cases you always end up following the money or in this case maybe its follow the black caviar. if you remember thats what one of paul manaforts former employees said to him is that oleg was the person that be gave him a big jar of black caviar. we now know that means $60 million. you asked about that sta...

Decades. oleg is the same man as "the washington post," ored last month that manafort offered to give private briefings to during the campaign. a spokesman for manafort responded with this statement. he has called for the u.s. government to release any intercepts involving him and non-americans in hopes of finally putting an end to these wild conspiracy theories. mr. manafort did not collude with the russian government. keyword there is government. as trumps former campaign manager, manafort say...

Then paul manafort and his connections, they keep coming up as soon as you scratch the surface of the timeline here and the characters involved. in march, for example, the associated press reported that he entered into a contract in 2006, a $10 million a year contract for paul manafort to advance the interest of vladimir putins government around the world. the ap reported that in march. paul manafort and oleg denied that. thats one. heres another. they are also now famously connected by a series...

More, somehow that whole industry belongs to oleg personally. thats how the oligarch thing works there. he is not to be not just loyal to but revery close to vladimir putin and sees no separation between his own interests and any interest of the russian state. he reportedly cannot get a visa to visit the united states because of what u.s. officials believe to be his ties to organized crime. he contests that but its almost more interesting to know that the russian government has treated that issu...

Follow the black caviar. if you remember thats what one of paul manaforts former employees said to him is that oleg was the person that be gave him a big jar of black caviar. we now know that means $60 million. you asked about that statement earlier. i think the reason they withdrew it, one of two things happened. either he repaid the loan or he didnt. if he didnt repay the loan, that means its either still on the books or it was another potential crime because it was money that he received that...

Money, they were talking about whatever oleg wanted to brief manafort on about the future of russia. so, questions remain here. why is the trump campaign chairman in communication with a putin-allied russian oligarch during the campaign about what he could do for that guy, how he could get whole, given his new position on the campaign. what did oleg want, what was manafort prepared to offer him to make good on his debt? and did a russian oligarch linked to p linked to putin buy him the ticket to...

Favor with a russian billionaire close to vladimir putin during the presidential campaign. mr. ford, it is nice to have you with us tonight. >> total pleasure. thank you. >> you describe -- you sort of boil this down in your piece to the -- to this remarkable thing that we are starting to get a sense of from these e-mails where manafort seemed primarily concerned with olegs approval for his work with trump and confirmation that he is paying attention to the work for trump. >> right. >> do we hav...

Beginning. he was in debt to pro-russian interests by as much as $17 million by the time he joined the trump campaign. and the first e-mail that he wrote asking his long-time employee, this russian ukrainian operative who has ties to russian military intelligence, the first e-mail he wrote to him was asking, how can i use my newfound role in the trump campaign to get whole? which is a very common expression for, how can i clear my debt in the second e-mail that was disclosed yesterday in "the wa...

Oleg? he asks about former clients in the region who may owe him money, and he says, if it would be helpful, we can offer him briefings. >> meantime, the world is watching as the white house grapples with two nuclear related confrontations. theres political fallout over president trumps fiery warning to north korea tuesday. and concern over whether hell pull the u.s. out of the iran nuclear deal. jim acosta has more. >> thank you very much, everybody. >> reporter: listening to president trump ta...
