Find me a backgrounder on Trump / Russia / Special Counsel Investigation
January 10, 2019 2:23 PM   Subscribe

I'm looking for a good, short-ish, factual and well-sourced backgrounder on the Special Counsel Investigation that is taking up space, rent free, in so many of our minds. Ideally something that is being updated on a regular basis, but also something that is a manageable size to read and that tells a narrative that an ordinary reader who is not steeped in this stuff can follow. Thanks!

Lawfare has ongoing coverage organized by topic, i.e. The Russia Connection and Donald Trump.

Politico has a section titled Trump Russia Scandal.

Axios has published Timeline: Every big move in the Mueller investigation, but it does not appear to have been updated recently, although it includes "Editor's note: This is an updating post."

Just Security appears to be tracking Unsealed Documents in Special Counsel Mueller's Investigation.

This episode of Cape Up with Jonathan Capehart provides a comprehensive look at the many facets of the investigation in a pretty eye-opening way. It's about three weeks out of date now, but is an excellent listen.
