Fox just reported that an Obama Admin source confirmed wiretapping occurred.

The official media approach seems to be:

Trump made this wild accusation today, but has no proof. Now, lets talk about the deep ties between Trump's campaign and the Russians who hacked the election.

I thought it was Obama who always days he knew nothing about a subject until he read it in the paper?

It is called “plausible cover”. You wait until something that could also observe the event to happen to use as the public reason. During the North African campaign the Ultra SIGINT reported a ship movement that needed to be countered without revealing the source. A patrol airplane “accidentally” flew beyond its no return point to observe the task force and radio back the location.

Trump has the “intelligence community” at his beck-and-call, but you seriously believe he would not bother consulting with them and act on something he read on the Interwebs?

“Seriesly?”

On Fox they mentioned the NYT mentioned there were wiretaps a little while back.

Good Grief. He isn’t a fool for crying out loud. Not down playing the work of Breitbart, but get a grip, Boomberg?

Not doubting you. But just checked foxnews.com.

If Obama Admin source confirmed, this should be the lead on foxnews.com.

Fox tv needs to update foxnews.com

This is going to be an interesting few days ahead.

I think Trump got notice of the Obama wiretap allegations from Breitbart. However, I think he got proof of those allegations from his intelligence team. This is headed to Watergate territory.

It is no longer being played. I have a screen capture but have no idea how to post. If you are on twitter go to @cops4trump16. It is on their feed.

I have heard that President Trump has known about this for sometime and has waited to spring the trap and cause maximum shock and awe against the enemy. I expect a rolling sustained counter attack by Trump forces to commence as soon as Monday. We the People are with you, Mr. President.

You nailed it. The wiretap had to be done by the FBI who had direct knowledge of the FISA order. Their information on this is now fully known by President Trump. Zer0’s goose is going to cook.

The dems have become a parody.

They are so used to spewing lies for Obama that they are instinctively claiming, even with Trump, that the first time the President saw it was on the news.

Trump was told by the head of the NSA a few weeks after the election. Obama fired him for it. He’s held this knowledge in reserve until he was ready to drain the swamp.
