Steve Bannon delivers damaging testimony in trial of longtime Trump adviser Roger Stone

WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump's 2016 campaign CEO Steve Bannon delivered potentially damaging testimony on Friday against Roger Stone, describing communicating with Trump's longtime adviser about WikiLeaks despite Stone's later denials and saying he believed Stone"had a relationship" with the website's founder.

U.S. intelligence agencies and former Special Counsel Robert Mueller determined that the emails were stolen by Russian state-backed hackers as part of Moscow's efforts to meddle in the election and boost Trump's candidacy. The Trump campaign relished the release of the hacked emails and was eager to learn about future releases but the president and his campaign team have denied conspiring with Russia.

"He told me he had a relationship" with Assange, Bannon said, when asked by the prosecution why he chose to email Stone to ask why Assange's news conference had been a dud."It would be natural for me to reach out to him." Only blocks away from the federal courthouse, the Democratic-led House is pursuing an impeachment inquiry against Trump over the Republican president's request that Ukraine investigate Democratic political rival Joe Biden.
