I don't know if he has has any that his phone was tapped directly, but we know the NSA or CIA can listen to calls. There wouldn't be proof if they did. There was the FISA warrant for the wiretap of the server.

I disagreed with how he went about those Tweets. I think he would have been better off to look into the Breitbart article with his staff, and then if they decided as such, tweet it out and request an investigation.

He also said that he would ask FBI Director James Comey directly when he appears later this month before the full committee, which is investigating Russian activities during the election."We should be able to determine in fairly short order whether this allegation is true or false," Schiff told reporters Tuesday evening at the Capitol.

Just asking Comey is not going to answer the question. The FBI is only responsible for wiretaps pertaining to a possible criminal case. There are other agencies- such as the NSA and CIA- that are not concerned with prosecution of a case, thus wouldn't need a warrant. Also, be sure to ask these agency heads not only did they do the "wiretapping", but did they get information from any foreign intelligence service ( such as GHCQ in Britain and the intel agency in Australia). That is a trick they use to bypass US law. They have agreements with both of those countries to do the spying for them and share the info - thus bypassing the restrictions placed on the CIA and NSA under US law.

They sure gave him an exceptionally short period of time to find any evidence. I doubt he will find anything that they consider “proof.”

[Gene Eric]

Evidence? The NSA could tap a garden hose. Idiotic posturing...

The front page of the NYT 1/20/2017 before they altered it.

I’m sure someone in Trump’s orbit has a screen shot, at the very least.

Send the memo to the NY Times.

They’re being cute with words “wiretap” and “phone.” They need to ask if he was under “surveillance.” They all know that’s what Trump was referring to.

Sure, because the tweet only turned the dialogue completely around to put Obama on the defensive. He should have done it more like Romney and GW.

The House intelligence committee asked the executive branch to provide by Monday any evidence to support President Donald Trump's claim that his phones were tapped at Trump Tower during the election, a senior congressional aide said Saturday.

Let's get this straight.

The President of the United States, requests that a standing Congressional Committee, examine whether or not his phones/computers were under surveillance, and their supposed response is, "You prove it!"

Looks and smells like Bullshit.

[LS]

Nonsense. Trump just hads the request to Sessions and McMaster & other heads who must turn it over. The tweets were 100% genius & killed the Rusdia crap in one weekend.

[trebb]

Maybe they need to subpoena the folks at the NYSlimes and WaaaaaPo.....
