Connections: Washington Post reporter Tom Hamburger on the intersection of money and politics

Tom Hamburger is an investigative reporter for the Washington Post whose work focuses on the intersection of money and politics. That beat led him to cover President Trump and Russia – but perhaps not in the way that most Americans understand. Hamburger has focused on stories like Trump Tower Moscow, and the possible financial entanglements between the Trump family and Russian interests.

Hamburger discusses his coverage, and the ongoing questions regarding the influence of money in politics.
