The former Campaign Chairman was wiretapped by the federal government during the cam tan and election. The fbi was conducting secret surveillance on Paul Manafort over concerns about his russian operatives. Evidence from the wiretaps has become part of the special councils investigation into russian meddling in the investigation. How this could impact that investigation. Jeff, good morning. Reporter good morning. Cbs news has confirm had the fbi obtained Foreign Surveillance intelligence warrants and was tracking Paul Manaforts alleged contacts with russian operatives. It is yet another sign that hes been at the center of the russia investigation for at least the last year. The surveillance of Paul Manafort included his time as trump Campaign Chairman. Cbs news has confirmed he was communicating with russian operative who is wanted to influence the election. Investigators have multiple wiretapped investigations between manafort and russian individuals. During the campaign, Trump Associates including manafort with dogged by questions of suspected ties with russia. Mr. Trump has no Financial Relationships with. Thats what my position is. Reporter whether the Trump Campaign conspired with the russians. Manafort has faced the most intense scrutiny to date. The New York Times reports mueller conducted a raid on manaforts home in july in virginia. Federal agents picked the lock on his front door while he was aleap confiscating a number of items.

Michael cohen will face questioning from the Senate Intelligence committee on capitol hill. Thank you, jeff. Were in washington. John, good morning. We want to talk about the president at the United Nations but first the russian probe by bob mueller. What does it mean . What are the implications that we see in Paul Manaforts case . When we had that predawn raid we knew it was serious and he had convinced a judge to have that kind of warrant issued. But now because of the wiretaps we have more specificity that mueller seems to have something on manafort. Does it have anything to do with the campaign . It could be completely outside of that, but that means he has information to pressure manafort and can use that information as a can opener to go and get whatever it is that he wants and make manafort talk about anything that might have happened during the campaign. Is it normal in a circumstance like this that you tell someone youre likely to be indicted . Well, thats what the times is reporting. If thats in fact, the case, you could imagine saying that because it gives the person that youre investigating a sense of the stakes and might loosen their tongue a little bit particularly in this case if they are in trouble for something on one front that you might be able to use to squeeze them to get information on another front. The reports are that Paul Manafort was wiretapped both before and after the election when he was known to speak on multiple occasions with now president which raises the question, is President Trump was he recorded . It does raise that question, and we dont really know the the question would be if the conversations he was being tapped on were within the whatever the court said was okay to look after and we just dont know the nature of that. But it certainly if he was on phone conversations with him and there was a broad wiretap then its possible. It gives you a sense that they they again because they had wiretaps they had some sense that there was something that he was hiding from them. Yeah, that they had to act fast. Lets talk about the president speaking today to the United Nations. What are you looking for . Its being described as one of the biggest speeches of his presidency. What are you looking for . There will be talk of values and some more vague talk but what im looking for are the direct messages hes going to send to north korea and china. When we talked to datillerson h said were not trying to change the regime. Were not trying to invade. Part of this message is to keep that clear to north korea. Second is on china, the u. S. Is trying to argue to china, if you want to be a player on the world stage you have to work here with north korea. This is a chance for the president to send that message publicly again. Thank you so much for joining us again. Well bring you the speech in a special report. It is expected to begin around 10 00 a. M. Eastern, 9 00 central. Charges of ethnic cleansing. Noble peace prize winner. More than 400,000 muslims have fled the country. Were in burmas capital with more. Reporter there was one particular moment that struck me in this speech. It was when she said that she really wanted to know why hundreds of thousands of have been fleeing. Theres two ways of looking at the way she spoke about this particular issue. The first is that shes simply out of touch. Shes not getting good information here in the capital. The second is that shes been willingfully blind to the alleged abuses of the Burmese Military, but its too difficult for her politically to say anything that might be seen as critical of the Burmese Military because she has to share power with them. They have a very delicate balance between the civilian government and the burmese army here and she doesnt want to say anything that might jeopardize that fragile relationship. Violent protests broke out at georgia tech in atlanta. The turmoil followed a vigil last night for Student Scout schultz. A University Police officer shot and killed the 21 saturday.
