The notes included references to former national security adviser Michael Flynn, former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort, an individual whose identity was redacted due to an ongoing investigation, and"Greek Guy," which is likely George Papadopoulos — although the footnote also notes that the Intelligence Committee"does not formally investigate individuals as 'targets.
