US President Donald Trump lashed out against the media over coverage of the probe into possible links between his campaign team and Russia, and questions about his son-in-law and White House senior adviser Jared Kushner.
With his first foreign trip now behind his back, Trump returned to the White House to face more challenges.
According to media reports, Kushner is under FBI scrutiny for his relationship with Russian officials during the transitional period before Trump took office.
