CNN.com ^ | September 18, 2017 | Evan Perez, Shimon Prokupecz and Pamela Brown

Washington (CNN)US investigators wiretapped former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort under secret court orders before and after the election, sources tell CNN, an extraordinary step involving a high-ranking campaign official now at the center of the Russia meddling probe.

The government snooping continued into early this year, including a period when Manafort was known to talk to President Donald Trump.

Some of the intelligence collected includes communications that sparked concerns among investigators that Manafort had encouraged the Russians to help with the campaign, according to three sources familiar with the investigation. Two of these sources, however, cautioned that the evidence is not conclusive.

Remember, FR rules require you to believe that the Secret Government that controls the U.S. is incapable of committing any crime against the American People on a Tuesday.

"So the “Russion’s did it!” meme may be less from Hillary’s camp than a prepared cover story from Obama’s administration to justify their spying on political opponents."

Russia is a created excuse to cover for all the illegal spying on then candidate Trump to use by Obama and Hillary against him in the election. When Trump won, they knew the spying scandal would be exposed so they invented this Russia lie as a cover. posted by DocRock on May 10, 2017

Attorney General Sessions, you are the Chief Law Enforcement Officer of the United States. What are you going to do about the fact that your President is the victim of not only a crime, but an attempted coup d'etat?

Who? Me?

Probably so. Until the monster eats them, too.

Reminds me of the fools that thought Hitler was their “savior”.

Gosh, would that include WHEN HE HAD AN OFFICE IN TRUMP TOWER?!

Looks like from this angle that Trump is proven correct. Again.

Exactly. So what is going to be done about it?

I saw the pervert for 8 years, and would prefer not to have to see him again. If you enjoy him that much, loop your cell phone with it and have at it but don’t inflict him on the rest of us.

I hope at the next rally the people start chanting: FIRE SESSIONS, FIRE SESSIONS, FIRE SESSIONS, and that it becomes as popular as LOCK HER UP.

Hillary’s communications were not and are not exclusively in her custody. Everything done as State is a government record; same for the Obama library. Levels of security classificataions determine the level of custodial ownership and everything at State is SENSITIVE BUT UNCLASSIFIED - nothing is UNCLASS and therefore all communications must remain within the State Network. Even emailing a document to your personal email account from State is a chargeable offense - I know because I was involved in IT determinitations for several situations as a State Foreign Service Specialist - Information Management Specialist or IT guy. Providing the requested evidence from my Post’s servers to Diplomatic Security which in turn resulted in a violation letter to the employee(s). What burns me is that nobody at State put either Kennedy or Hillary under chargers - the politicians are above the law.

“Why has no one in 5 years questioned him over his inaction during the 8 hours the attack went on”

Because they know he was at the Andrews Air Force Base golf locker room, screwing his boyfriend.
