Feds monitored Trump lawyer Michael Cohen's phones(NOT wired TAP)
NBC ^

Posted on 05/03/2018 2:38:54 PM PDT by janetjanet998

EDITOR'S NOTE: Earlier today, NBC News reported that there was a wiretap on the phones of Michael Cohen, President Trump’s longtime personal attorney, citing two separate sources with knowledge of the legal proceedings involving Cohen.

But three senior U.S. officials now dispute that, saying that the monitoring of Cohen’s phones was limited to a log of calls, known as a pen register, not a wiretap where investigators can actually listen to calls.

NBC News has changed the headline and revised parts of the original article.

Today’s news people don’t understand basic concepts. The Mueller gang is not stupid enough to do actual wiretaps.

A distinction without a difference. My late father tapped calls on orders of subpoenas in Miami circa 1968 from the frame. This has been going on since Morse and Bell invented their contraptions.

As if “monitored” isn’t “wire-tapped.” Morons.

When they start fact-checking before they rush to judgement - I mean ‘publish’ - I’ll start taking the media seriously again - maybe.

The NSA records all our calls. You don’t need to place a “wire tap” these days. All one needs to do is get a warrant for a specific target and time frame and then pull the recordings after the fact.

Pay attention.

"But three senior U.S. officials now dispute that, saying that the monitoring of Cohen’s phones was limited to a log of calls, known as a pen register, not a wiretap where investigators can actually listen to calls."

They listened. Lets examine the warrant to search, along with the return on what was found.

Why of course. 319,999,999 other people have everything spoken into or heard out of their cel phones recorded. But in the case of Michael Cohen, somebody had to write all the stuff down, and by the way, they pretty much used cursive.
