Why Trump’s $464M bond failure could make him a ‘massive national security risk’
National security, legal, and political experts are lining up to sound the alarm about the potential national security risks swirling around Donald Trump, and those warnings are getting stronger. “'The Committee found that Manafort’s presence on the Campaign and proximity to Trump created opportunities for Russian intelligence services to exert influence over, and acquire confidential information on, the Trump campaign,' the Senate report added." Benen also reported: "When the Senate Intelligence Committee’s report literally pointed to a 'direct tie between senior Trump Campaign officials and the Russian intelligence services,' it was referring in part to Manafort 'directly and indirectly' communicating with an accused Russian intelligence officer, a Russian oligarch, and several pro-Russian oligarchs in Ukraine." Benen reinforced his thesis, writing on social media: "When the Senate Intelligence Committee pointed to a 'direct tie' between the Trump campaign and Russian intelligence services, it was referring in large part to Paul Manafort — who's reportedly now headed back to Team Trump." Also on Monday, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington wrote on X: "We cannot emphasize this enough: Trump's mounting court fines make him a massive national security risk."
