Top Wall Street banks have handed over thousands of documents related to Russians who may have links to President Trump and his businesses, The Wall Street Journal reports. The firms helping out congressional investigators include: Bank of America, Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase, Morgan Stanley, Wells Fargo, and Deutsche Bank, Trump’s primary bank.
