Washington (CNN)US investigators wiretapped former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort under secret court orders before and after the election, sources tell CNN, an extraordinary step involving a high-ranking campaign official now at the center of the Russia meddling probe.

The government snooping continued into early this year, including a period when Manafort was known to talk to President Donald Trump.

Some of the intelligence collected includes communications that sparked concerns among investigators that Manafort had encouraged the Russians to help with the campaign, according to three sources familiar with the investigation. Two of these sources, however, cautioned that the evidence is not conclusive.

“Indicted for what?

How can Manafort flip if there is no crime? You expect him to lie about their being a Russian connection to the Trump campaign where none exists?”

Needs repeating.

Hopefully, Judge Moore will win and be much better than Sessions was. Moore could be another Helms.

:: Therefore wiretapping Manafort is proof Manafort was colluding with the Russians ::

Very soon, it will come out and you will need to add
“Trump fired Manafort”
He MUST be guilty and Trump is covering it.

And there’s a 95% chance it continues to this very day.

Yep and I'm willing to bet it's the real source behind many 'unnamed sources' in the White House.

Mulehead has nothing. On anyone . . . except Democrats. In the end, he will indict some low level Dems.

I'd like to believe that but the truth doesn't seem to matter anymore in DC. Not to dems or reps, all that matters is hanging on to power. By any means necessary.

Said it before and bears repeating. Sessions is a Trojan horse. He and other swamp things attached themselves to the Trump campaign as soon as it became apparent Trump would win the nomination. They were sent in to try to manipulate and box Trump in or, failing that, bring him down. It is the only explanation that fits all the known facts, including the speed with which the swamp arranged the Mueller appointment, and the threats from congress if Trump were to fire Sessions.

Correct. We ALL wish we had never seen him. He ISN’T going away and HE caused (along with his buddies) MOST of these insane problems our country has to deal with; nearly EVERY SINGLE DAY.
