Special counsel to probe Trump and Russia
Mr Trump says it's a witch hunt - but a former FBI boss will look into links with Russia.
'No politician in history ... has been treated worse or more unfairly' is how Donald Trump described the slew of accusations linking his election campaign with Russia. He says it's all fake news. But now the Justice Department has appointed a special counsel to look into the reports .. and, perhaps, to prosecute.
