On page 33 of the Mueller Report:
"The investigation identified two different forms of connections between the IRA" (Internet Research Agency - The Russian Company based in St. Petersburg that intervened in the 2016 U.S. Presidential election) "and members of the Trump Campaign. (The investigation identified no similar connections between the IRA and members of the Clinton Campaign). First, on multiple occasions, members and surrogates of the Trump Campaign promoted - typically by linking, retweeting, or similar methods of reposting - pro-Trump or anti-Clinton content published by the IRA through IRA-controlled social media accounts. Additionally, in a few instances, IRA employees represented themselves as U.S. persons to communicate with the Trump Campaign in an effort to seek assistance and coordination on IRA-organized political rallies inside the United States."
On page 66 of the Mueller Report:
"IV. RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT LINKS TO AND CONTACTS WITH THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN
The Office identified multiple contacts - 'links,' in the words of the Appointment Order - between Trump Campaign officials and individuals with ties to the Russian government."
To be fair, Mueller does go on to state that the investigation did not establish that the Trump Campaign coordinated with the Russians with whom they were in contact.
On page 191 of the Mueller Report:
"The Office determined that certain individuals associated with the Campaign lied to the investigators about Campaign contacts with Russia and have taken other actions to interfere with the investigation."
