Obama’s CIA Asked Foreign Intel Agencies To Spy on Trump Campaign

The revelation that the U.S. intelligence community, under the Obama administration, sought the assistance of the “Five Eyes” intelligence alliance to surveil Donald Trump’s associates before the 2016 election is a chilling reminder of the lengths to which the Deep State will go to protect its interests and challenge its adversaries. (The Five Eyes countries are the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.) This bombshell, reported by a team of independent journalists, exposes a dark chapter in American political history, where foreign intelligence services were reportedly mobilized against a presidential candidate.

The alleged operation against Trump and his associates, which predates the official start of the FBI’s Crossfire Hurricane investigation, is a stark example of political weaponization of intelligence. The involvement of foreign allies in surveilling American citizens under the pretext of national security raises serious questions about the integrity of our democratic processes and the autonomy of our nation’s intelligence operations.

The narrative that has been pushed for years, that the investigation into Trump’s campaign began with an Australian tip about a boastful Trump aide, now appears to be a cover for a more extensive and coordinated effort to undermine Trump. If reports are accurate, British intelligence began targeting Trump on behalf of American intelligence agencies as early as 2015, long before the official narrative claims.

The implications of this are profound. It suggests an unprecedented level of collusion between U.S. intelligence agencies and their foreign counterparts to influence the outcome of an American presidential election. The use of foreign intelligence to circumvent American laws and surveillance limitations represents a grave threat to our nation’s sovereignty and the principles of democracy.

The fact that this operation was reportedly initiated at the behest of high-ranking officials within the Obama administration, including CIA Director John Brennan...

Ok. Looks like two separate incidents.

The post I responded to said he was fired for the foreign intelligence story, your link said he was only suspended and was brought back.

He was eventually fired for sexual harassment claims.

2015 is also when Obama and Loretta Lynch announced their creation of the “Strong Cities Network” against “violent extremism” at the UN.

In March of 2017 (right here on FR) I posted my theory that the DOJ-CIA “wiretapping” that was revealed in late 2016 was a nothing more than a tool to establish justification — retroactively — for a surveillance effort that began long before mid-2016.

I also stand by my original theory that Trump’s unexpected victory in 2016 can be partially attributable to the fact that his senior campaign team knew they were under surveillance, and deliberately gave out false information to the CIA-DOJ dopes.
