**Paul Manafort, former chairman of Donald Trump’s presidential campaign,** has hired a crisis communications firm, reports [The Hill](http://thehill.com/business-a-lobbying/lobbying-hires/325053-former-trump-aide-manafort-hires-crisis-communications?ref=capitolcommunicator.com), which added:

“The move comes as Manafort faces scrutiny over possible ties to Russia centered on his past consulting work for officials in Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych’s pro-Russia government.

“Manafort’s new spokesman is Jason Maloni, a former senior vice president and chair of the litigation practice at Levick who formed his own firm, called JadeRoq, late last year.

““Paul retained me recently because he was getting a lot of media inquiries. Having some support in this area allows folks like you to get your answers faster and allows him to focus on other matters,” Maloni said in an email.”
