Could there be a Federal Inverstiagion into Trump Espionage?

[Nitpick]

The US government has never denied its existence. They've just never acknowledged it until the turn of this century. Ignoring news reports and questions isn't the same as denying.

Correct! Bad wording on my part.

Are you saying that Putin's government is a branch office of Trump MegaEgoInc and they take their marching orders from him?

I don't even like the guy myself, but your scenario has some pretty big problems.

Quite the other way around actually, Putin has been playing Trump like a fiddle.

A cheap and easy way to control an immensely clueless Presidential Candidate.

I Ran the C.I.A. Now I’m Endorsing Hillary Clinton.

In sharp contrast to Mrs. Clinton, Mr. Trump has no experience on national security. Even more important, the character traits he has exhibited during the primary season suggest he would be a poor, even dangerous, commander in chief.

These traits include his obvious need for self-aggrandizement, his overreaction to perceived slights, his tendency to make decisions based on intuition, his refusal to change his views based on new information, his routine carelessness with the facts, his unwillingness to listen to others and his lack of respect for the rule of law.

The dangers that flow from Mr. Trump’s character are not just risks that would emerge if he became president. It is already damaging our national security.

President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia was a career intelligence officer, trained to identify vulnerabilities in an individual and to exploit them. That is exactly what he did early in the primaries. Mr. Putin played upon Mr. Trump’s vulnerabilities by complimenting him. He responded just as Mr. Putin had calculated.

...

Mr. Trump has also taken policy positions consistent with Russian, not American, interests — endorsing Russian espionage against the United States, supporting Russia’s annexation of Crimea and giving a green light to a possible Russian invasion of the Baltic States.

In the intelligence business, we would say that Mr. Putin had recruited Mr. Trump as an unwitting agent of the Russian Federation.
