Mueller Investigating Trump Ties To Cambridge Analytica: Report
Special Counsel Mueller’s probe is expanding quickly.
Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s team of investigators is examining the relationship between the Trump campaign and Cambridge Analytica, a new report by ABC News confirms.
The revelation that Mueller is probing the data firm that Trump hired comes after a series of bombshell reports in the last several days in which Cambridge Analytica was exposed for having improperly acquired the personal information of at least 50 million Facebook users.
According to the ABC News report, members of the Trump campaign’s digital team have met with Special Counsel investigators.
The Trump team members who have met with Muller’s team are the staffers worked closely with Cambridge Analytica, which the campaign used during the 2016 election.
Mueller’s team had previously requested all emails from employees at Cambridge Analytica who worked with the Trump campaign. At the time, he request was voluntary.
