This week, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif) disclosed that "there is substantial evidence that the Obama Administration gathered and disseminated covert surveillance material on the incoming Trump Administration. It seems like this might've been illegal."
Arizona Sen. John McCain (R) was outraged by what he termed "an unprecedented violation of our national security. I'm sure that any covert surveillance of Trump ordered by President Obama was only done for very good reasons. By going public with this information Rep. Nunes has betrayed our former President and alerted those who treasonously conspired with the Russians to deny Hillary Clinton her right to be elected."
"I am especially dismayed that President Obama's heroic efforts to undo the damage done by the misguided voters who gave Trump an Electoral College victory on November 8th would be so casually undermined by a member of my own Party," the Senator complained. "Rather than cooperate with the covert operation to discredit the wrongly elected usurper, Mr. Nunes has opted to side with tyranny."
Presidential Press Secretary Sean Spicer thanked Sen. McCain "for blowing apart the narrative that the surveillance was 'inadvertent.' It seems pretty clear that members of the Obama Administration engaged in a conscious attempt to subvert President Trump. The leaking of this covertly collected intelligence to media co-conspirators broke the law. People are going to be fired. Others will end up in jail before this is all over."
Meanwhile, "whistle blower" Dennis Montgomery says he has 600 million pages of government documents outlining years of Obama Administration covert surveillance of millions of Americans. McCain contended that "the fact is that tens of millions of Americans voted for Trump. I think that, by itself, vindicates the Obama Administration's surveillance activities and shows the amazing prescience of the man."
In related news, Rep. Adam Schiff, the ranking Democrat on a House Intelligence Committee, insisted that "it is impossible to know whether I was previously aware of this surveillance. There are no witnesses to testify that I was. No one can prove that I was."

These satire articles are getting harder and harder to detect.
WHO THE HELL CARES WHAT MCCAIN THINKS ABOUT ANYTHING?
He is way past his expiration date and hanging on only by the memory of his military history as a POW. He was a great man, now, he is a has been trying to maintain relevance.
McLame is already disturbed so any reference to his being disturbed by this is a moot point........;)
