Of course it is..its always been about getting rid of Trump..the left despises the fact that Donald Trump resides in the White House..they wanted Hillary Clinton, actually they wanted Bernie Sanders but that is a whole other matter. They wanted to turn America Communist, they got very close but failed..and now they want a do over..if the Dems take back the House/Senate in November..Trump will be impeached

Is this another FISA Court authorization? Rudy Giuilani needs to saddle up on this.

Most likely, but Sessions is/was the AG & I suspect he had to have been notified.

Does illegal search and seizure exist anymore?

Since when did the FBI get the power to be above the law?

I do think that’s their main motivation....however...there’s another motive, keep the attention off the Clintons, and the Clinton fund, or Lois Lerner, or any other of a half dozen scandals that have never been resolved

The DOJ, FBI and NSA should have been purged on January 20 2017.

Still possible. Remove their security clearances. No security clearances, their hands are tied. Trump has this power.

“Cohen isn’t a Russian agent.”

Which means they presented evidence to a judge of some probable cause of a crime.

Whether fabricated or not.

I think the story went....The President called Cohen and Cohen said he was likely being tapped and not to call there again.

Exactly, not their first rodeo. The news media thinks they are idiots, discussing hundreds of illegal plans and discussing crimes and crimes they would like to commit...sheesh

This is how they (FBI) were going to trap Trump, in any upcoming interview.

A disagreement between any witnesses can be used for the FBI to pick a side and knock down which ever of the two they wish to slap with a perjury wrap.

These FBI “interviews” going on against a target that are set up with no transcript, no video or audio, or no advocate is bad news for the little guy and lets the big guy skate.
UNLESS, HE IS REPUBLICAN.

And if information about the alleged evidence ever comes out, it will take at least a year, with the DOJ digging in.

I’m sure they’re tapping all Trump’s relatives, friends and associates. Probably have been since the election
