Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly says President Trump possesses credible evidence that former President Barack Obama ordered the wiretapping of Trump Tower in New York City last year.
Trump claimed on Twitter last Saturday that Obama had his wires tapped in Trump Tower before Election Day last year, making the accusation without offering any evidence.
If the president of the United States said that, hes got his reasons to say it, Kelly said Monday on CNNs The Situation Room." "[Trumps] got some convincing evidence that that took place.
Kevin Lewis, a spokesman for Obama, said last Saturday that Trumps claims about the former president are simply false.
A cardinal rule of the Obama Administration was that no White House official ever interfered with any independent investigation led by the Department of Justice, he said in a statement.
"As part of that practice, neither President Obama nor any White House official ever ordered surveillance on any U.S. citizen.
White House spokesman Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Sunday an investigation of Trumps wiretapping claims should be included in any probe of ties between the presidents 2016 bid and Russia.
FBI director James Comey asked the Department of Justice to disavow Trump's claims that Obama ordered a wiretap, according to a New York Times report.

Kelly says that Obama ordered the wiretap and there is evidence.
just caught a minute of O’Reilly with Gingrich. O’Reilly saying Trump must put up evidence. Gingrich says you already proved it - Flynn was in Trump Towers. O’Reilly had to agree.
has anyone found or posted any of the articles which state the Flynn phone calls were made from Trump Tower and there were allegedly transcripts etc? for me, that was proof at the time that the phones at the Tower were bugged.
I looked for some articles yesterday but never found those that mentioned this fact.
I just don't get that at all. Are they saying the DoJ wiretapped an opposition candidate based on innuendo about Russia ginned up by the DNC, and the WH knew about it and did nothing?
Banana republic is too good a word for it. Obama turned us into Zimbabwe.
Ah.
Thanks for the info.
So can we consider that an admission that they interfered with the non-independent investigations?
I take it you are a cop and I respect your service. I’m just noting who’s still on TV making statements and who’s still silent/missing in their ‘resistance’ movement.
Loretta Lynch is the most logical person for them to blame. She's already complicit because of meeting Bill on the tarmac. It would be great if McCain got a whole lot of blame for his involvement with the Steele dossier.
Does anyone know if hillary was given access to the wiretap info? That would be amazing, but not surprising.
All Loretta Lynch and Bill Clinton talked about was their grandkids. CNN told me so...
If the president of the United States said that, hes got his reasons to say it, Kelly said
The headline says Trump has the evidence, but Kelly seems to merely be saying that Trump has evidence by inference, only because Trump would not have said what he did without evidence. The latter a much weaker situation.
The problem with Obolo’s implausible deniability is found exactly in what our friend Mark stated the other day which also makes it delicious irony:his plowboys from the MSM published the applications in June and Oct. and along with the leaks they were publishing he bloody well knew what they were doing.But there will likely be a smoking gun somewhere.
You don’t know what role Comey is playing in this.
He also says... “[Trumps] got some convincing evidence that that took place.
The excuse at the time was that the Ambassador’s phone was being tapped.
Why would they not bypass him for another agency or they guy at the FBI who the dems gave money to his wife?
I think we’ll find out. Trump could be negotiating their fates for all we know. I think the evidence Trump holds is colossal and could run deep.
How I think it went down, Clinton forcing the meeting with Lynch at Sky Harbor tarmac:
WJC: Loretta, on the 16th, a dear golfing buddys grandson applied for a job in your agency and was turned down. Can you look to see if his resume was processed properly? He applied for an internal telecom job. Name of Warren B. Goode.
Lynch: Oh, yes, I remember him, and there was a glitch, but Im 99% sure hes been hired but will be contacted with the offer on Monday. You know, my grandkids are always trying to get me to play golf with them. I need to take them up on it.
JUNE
Holder/McCabe: We need a tap on Trump because Russians.
FISA: GFY
OCTOBER:
Somebody/McCabe: We need a tap on HRC because she might be colluding with DOJ on the election and plus weve already had the tap data on Trump accidentally disseminated everywhere and could you make that DJT warrant retroactive to June.
FISA: Why, of course!
Sr American Officials = chow line at old folks home
That Comey hasn’t let McCabe loose is all I need to know. Comey has a long history of covering for the Clintoons. That Comey would work for Low Retta, the Lyncher is very problematic, though his dough from HSBC should have set him up for life.
