A federal study found signs that surveillance devices for intercepting cellphone calls and texts were operating near the White House and other sensitive locations in the Washington area last year.
A Department of Homeland Security program discovered evidence of the surveillance devices, called IMSI catchers, as part of federal testing last year, according to a letter from DHS to Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Oregon, on May 22. The letter didn’t specify what entity operated the devices and left open the possibility that there could be alternative explanations for the suspicious cellular signals collected by the federal testing program last year.
The discovery bolsters years of independent research suggesting that foreign intelligence agencies use sophisticated interception technology to spy on officials working within the hub of federal power in the nation’s capital. Experts in surveillance technology say that IMSI catchers – sometimes known by one popular brand name, Stingrays – are a standard part of the toolkit for many foreign intelligence services, including for such geopolitical rivals as Russia and China.

My #1 suspect is Odungo’s shadow government operatives.
Yeah, that's the ticket. It's foreign intelligence agencies eavesdropping on White House cell phones.
Obama bought a house in DC for a reason. And Jarrett lives with them.
A mole is a mole no matter what role it plays.
Remember, Obama wanted to be informed.
Was this writer not PC (personal computer) educated?
I can go to Shibuya, Shinjuku (or any American city or town) and hack anyone within range using any mobile device (iphone or Android) using Linux software...
Root any device and you can do anything (almost).
Obama bought a house in DC for a reason. And Jarrett lives with them.
Must be new, why would they need one when all the spies have to do is go to the NYT for the latest leak?
Wouldn’t be surprised if conduits are installed in the MO White House Garden.
Um, but that's two words. /sarc
Lol... got me.
He couldn’t care less about the threat of jail. He has gotten away with everything for years and has a halo to prove it. We have to be concerned about the future and will have to give a lot of past crimes a pass.
This creeping totalitarianism and Illegalism are the greatest threats to the nation.
And if any good at all, not rely on technical comm means. The olde concept of “Moscow Rules” for communication. Meaning chalk marks on telephone poles, drop secret “mailbox” sites, encrypted flash drives, and a host of other “low tech” hard to break links.
Like maybe this is why Mrs. Ohr got a ham radio license (they don’t have a boat, which is usually why one would for marine use)— to use encrypted burst transmissions and electronic one time encrypted receivers. It is certain that she and her husband will both be indicted— she worked for Fusion GPS and speaks Russian fluently. Just sayin’.
Well, you’re certainly getting closer than a lot of folks around here.
Unconstitutional federal acts and agencies ARE totalitarian acts, acts of tyranny, and utterly illegal acts.
THE greatest threat to our nation and our lives and freedoms is the 80%+ unconstitutional portion of the $4 trillion federal government which is why our goal MUST be the determination that NOTHING will stop us from MAGA by restoring our Free Constitutional Republic.
The means of exercising the powers granted the government are easily corrupted and subject to taking power until the taker is stopped. So far not much has been denied because of a general ignorance of the constitution and a willingness to use it as a rhetorical fig leaf. Everyone says their law is constitutional.
It is hard to see how the President won’t be knocked off since he won’t go willingly. I pray for him every night.
OOOooooh!
I hear that is some kind of water supply problem on Midway.
The same Divine Providence that got Trump impossibly elected will keep him there. God bless you for your prayers, but know that we have the same God who miraculously birthed this nation, fighting to restore this nation once again in these last days. And God doesn’t lose.
