President Donald Trump's possible ties to Russia were coming increasingly under scrutiny this week amid the fallout of former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn's resignation. With the ripples of the scandal still spreading, an old video clip featuring former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton stressing Trump's relationship with the Kremlin went viral Wednesday morning.
Flynn resigned Monday after reports emerged that he discussed sanctions with a Russian ambassador during a December conversation — but apparently said otherwise to Vice President Mike Pence. He and others denied Flynn discussed the sanctions, which were enacted by President Barack Obama to punish Russia for alleged interference in the 2016 presidential election.
