Trump ex-adviser says he never heard of campaign contacts with Russians

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Michael Caputo, who was an adviser to President Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, said he told a U.S. House of Representatives committee on Friday that he never heard of anyone in the campaign talking with Russians.

“Today I spent my time in front of the committee detailing the fact that I had no contacts with Russians and I never heard of anyone in the Trump campaign talking with Russians,” Caputo, a political consultant, told reporters after testifying at a closed meeting of the House Intelligence Committee.
