IF?
In other words, this information is again the result of illegal leaks and unmaskings.
The article says the word “could”, not necessarily “did”...
but a following tweet says “Scoop: Manaforts phone was illegally bugged during meeting with Russian Lawyer, confirmed by multiple sources. Lynch ordered it.”
??
The Trump people knew this. That why the Russia lady said Manaford never looked up from his phone the whole meeting on GMA...
Good American people are appalled at the abuse of the intelligence agencies for political purposes. This was the worst thing possible that they spoke of when they addressed telephone surveillance on US citizens.
Congress. Demand we stop it!
And we are to understand that some REPUBLICAN requested Manafort to testify to Congress?
What the heck? This is getting serious.
Lynch double crosses everyone, Comey lies through his teeth, bammy says not a smidgen of anything........ and we the people are watching the destruction of our beloved country. This is why Trump was elected. WE the people are sick to death of all this corruption.
ping
Demand personal liability of any president who allows intelligence surveillance to be used politically against the people. MAKE IT HURT!
Such evil doings. The truth will set us free.
I CALLED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When this first came out- the NEXT DAY
They set up the Russians in any place so they could claim to bug them under FISA statutes
If this is the case, it appears that the Trump, Jr/Veselnitskaya, which occurred on June 9th, 2016, is pre-FISA approval.
Time for Jail for some Obama administration. Now.
I suspect this is a case of FedGov remotely hijacking a cellphone as a listening device, rather than planting a bug in the phone - this is why the denials of bugging Trump Tower were phrased in such a precise and Clintonian manner. I knew they could do it with a warrant, and I am not at all surprised that Team Hillary would try to sabotage her election opponent even without legal justification.
I expect those on Hillary’s side to illegally collude with a foreign power (Obama’s minions) to manipulate the outcome of an American election. It’s a good thing the American people were too smart to fall for it three times in a row - only twice.
Fround this from a short item at the Angry Patroit, which was referenced by a friend as a source of new items..
At the very least this is malfeasance from those that ordered it and misfeasance by those who carried out those orders.
0bama and his regime weaponized the entire government against conservatives. From the IRS to the FBI. From the EPA to the NSA.
The only solution is hiring/exit interviews. All federal employees sans the military. One question: Did you vote for 0bama twice? If yes, fire them on the spot.
They exhibited poor judgement.

Let’s just make it easy. Who didn’t Lynch tap?
Wheels inside wheels. The dimensions of the honey trap are only now being revealed. Honey traps, also called “honey pots,” have been a favorite spying tactic as long as sex and espionage have existed.
First, Loretta Lynch brings in Natalia Veselnitskaya on what is called a “visa parole”, persons admitted on other than a formal visa process. A person who does not meet the technical requirements for a visa or is inadmissible may be permitted to enter the United States for specific purposes. Then, the person overstays this visa parole, without being subjected to arrest and return to country of origin. Then, a meeting is set up to entrap a somewhat naive representative of an opposition political candidate. Lastly, the phone lines used in setting up this meeting are tapped and transcriptions taken down.
This might work for catching a KNOWN criminal, but to set up such an elaborate scheme speaks of considerable pre-planning and intent to deceive the “mark”, in this instance persons in a high position within the Trump campaign.
As dirty tricks go, this was almost too elaborate for SOMETHING not to go wrong. And it went awry almost upon the arrival of the Trump team members at the meeting, when the object of the meeting shifted from “getting something to use as opposition research against Hillary Clinton” to a discussion of changing the restrictions on Russian child adoptions by US citizens.
The Trump team, sensibly, walked out when it was not going as advertised, and promptly forgot all about the incident. But the Lynch DOJ did NOT forget, and used this crumb to later throw it in the way of the Trump administration. Therefore, Donald Trump, Jr. LIED, and was no longer a fit member of the Presidential team, and thereby tarnishing the entire Trump Administration.
I wish I could put a “< /sarcasm >” tag on this, but maybe the truth is just too harsh.
Knowing that certain Democrat misdeeds would eventually come to light with Trump in charge, perhaps Comey’s ploy to get Mueller in place as Special Counsel was, in fact, primarily a protection scheme to defend the liberal criminals after the fact... (?)
