Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) on Friday resurfaced an infamous question from the Watergate probe following news that President Trump’s longtime associate Roger Stone was indicted in special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation.

Nadler, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, shared a list of Trump associates who have been indicted in the probe over Russian interference in the 2016 presidential campaign and potential coordination between the Trump campaign and Moscow.
