And the first story we're delving 1 into this Wednesday involves a storm that's brewing 2 in Washington, D.C. This is related to special counsel investigation 3 that's trying to find out if members of President Donald Trump 4's political team colluded, secretly worked with Russia during Trump's campaign for president.


本周三首则消息涉及华盛顿特区正在酝酿的一场风暴。这与一项特别调查有关,该调查试图查明唐纳德·特朗普总统的政治团队是否在特朗普竞选总统期间与俄罗斯勾结并秘密合作。


Multiple reports came out recently saying that in 2016, the Federal Bureau of Investigation sent an informant to speak with Trump campaign advisors 5.


最近多则报道称,美国联邦调查局(简称FBI)曾在2016年派线人去和特朗普竞选团队的顾问接触。


Here's where this gets controversial. The FBI is allowed to use informants to speak to people and get information. But it's not allowed to do this for political purposes. So, what happened in this case, we don't know yet.


下面我们来解释一下引起争议的问题。联邦调查局可以利用线人与关系人交谈并获得信息。但是他们不能为达到政治目的而采取这种做法。目前我们尚不清楚这起事件的具体情况。


President Trump has said that if the FBI used the informant to spy on his campaign, it would be illegal and a disgrace to the United States. He's also suggested, according to "The Hill" political Website that this might have been done by members of the Obama administration to decrease Trump's chances of winning the election.


特朗普总统表示,如果联邦调查局安插线人监视他的竞选团队,那是违法行为,而且令美国蒙羞。据政治网站“国会山”报道,特朗普认为这可能是奥巴马政府成员所为,目的是减少特朗普赢得总统大选的机会。


But "The New York Times" reports that while the informant interacted with members of Trump's campaign, it was not for illegal, political purposes, and critics say the president is using the news of the informant to discredit 6 the ongoing 7 investigation involving Russia.


但是《纽约时报》报道称,虽然这名线人与特朗普竞选团队成员进行了接触,但是并不是出于违法和政治目的,批评人士认为总统在利用这则线人新闻,目的是使正在进行的通俄门调查失去信誉。


So, what are the next steps in all this? The White House and the Justice Department, which the FBI is part of, have agreed to investigate how the informant was used. The results of that could indicate whether or not any laws were broken.


那下一步是什么?白宫和美国司法部同意对线人的使用情况进行调查,联邦调查局隶属于司法部。调查结果可以表明是否存在违法行为。
