2. An Associated Press investigation3 found president Donald Trump4's former campaign chairman Paul Manafort secretly worked for a Russian billionaire to advance the interests of Russian president Vladimir Putin. Manafort confirmed his employment but said the work was being unfairly cast as inappropriate.
3. Powerful GOP congressman5 Devin Nunes, the Chairman of the house intelligence committee said President Trump's communications may have been monitored during the transition period, as a part of "Incidental collection". He said the communications don't appear to be related to the ongoing6 FBI investigation into Trump associate's contacts with Russia.
4. In Jerusalem and just-in-time for easter, the tomb of Jesus has been resurrected to its former glory. A Greek restoration team completed the historic renovation7 of the shrine8, that tradition says houses the cave where Jesus was entombed and resurrected.
