Trump also finds himself at the center of controversy. A new report from Slate.com alleges that the GOP presidential candidate had a server with ties to Russian banks.

The Trump campaign has denounced the article and according to the New York Times the FBI has: “ultimately concluded that there could be an innocuous explanation, like a marketing email or spam, for the computer contacts.”
