Senior FBI officials briefed Donald Trump last year that Russian operatives would try to infiltrate his campaign, according to a new report from NBC News.
The briefings were given both to Trump and Hillary Clinton in the weeks after July 19, 2016, when Trump was officially selected the Republican party’s nominee for president.
According to NBC:
The briefings were led by counterintelligence specialists from the FBI, the sources said. They were timed to occur around the period when the candidates began receiving classified intelligence, the officials said, which put them at greater risk for being targeted by foreign spies. Trump’s first intelligence briefing as Republican nominee was Aug. 17, 2016, sources told NBC News at the time.
