There's a new development in the investigation of possible collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign. CNN reports that former campaign chair Paul Manafort was wiretapped by the FBI under secret court orders before and after the election. Evan Perez, an investigative reporter for CNN, says it's likely that Trump may have been captured on some of the wiretaps.
