Russia probe reaches current White House official, people familiar with the case say
The law enforcement investigation into possible coordination between Russia and the Trump campaign has identified a current White House official as a significant person of interest, showing that the probe is reaching into the highest levels of government, according to people familiar with the matter.
The senior White House adviser under scrutiny by investigators is someone close to the president, according to these people, who would not further identify the official.
The revelation comes as the investigation also appears to be entering a more overtly active phase, with investigators shifting from work that has remained largely hidden from the public to conducting interviews and using a grand jury to issue subpoenas. The intensity of the probe is expected to accelerate in the coming weeks, the people said.

How do we know this and who needs to be fired because we are hearing it. An honest investigation has no leaks. When there is a leak, it comes from a dishonest biased person. Who is it?
I think they're looking at Jared. I REALLY HOPE they are looking at Trump - but Jared is known to have a lot of dealings with Russia, so that's probably where the investigation is at this point.
Ya' know - Trump is such an idiot - calling everything "fake" news. Did he really think he could intimidate the media to shut up? Now, for sure, they're on a vendetta - and I don't blame them.
It would be hilarious if Ivanka was secretly leaking stuff to the media.
Nothing would surprise me with this crew. Speculation is its jared - maybe she wants to be free to go after trudeau. Have you seen how she looks at him?
