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.

The earlier they started to monitor Trump, the more likely it is (or seems to me) that they monitored all of the GOP contenders.
No one has talked about the surveillance of anyone but Trump, but early on, he was considered a long shot. Doesn't it seem likely, and scandalous if true, that they were surveilling many others as well?
I’m still in shock, frankly, that barely 7 years after 9/11/2001 such a person could attain the Presidency AND be re-elected.
It caused me to rethink what I thought of about 50% of our population.....
I have relatives and friends who are cops, agents, and detectives. Trust me: Satanists and all their agents treat Halloween as a “sacred” day for the evil one. There are stories that you would not believe.
Boom! You nailed it!
Absolutely 100% correct.
So Barry Soetoros record stands.
Pretty sure they can do 3 hops... there are a whole lot of people right now that are looking at legal bills..and having trouble sleeping after this news
Manafort was probably being surveilled simply because he was involved in a part of the world the Democrats were economically interested in...Soros’ Ukraine project, etc.
R. Mariotti points out that law is not settled on the fisa wiretaps as to admissible evidence...so I would expect a fight
Weird, no mention on Breitbart.
Hillary, in typical Democrat fashion, projects her projection onto Trump.
So they slam Trump for bringing this up and then CNN publishes this.
Bannon could get pulled in .. everyone has to be going over all conversations with manafort right about now
I learned a long time ago whenever Trump tweets something and the Commie media says “Oh what an idea, what is he smoking he’s full of crap” either a few weeks later or in this case, many months later, he is proven RIGHT..will he get an apology, of course not..all the media cares about now, what was said during those conversations and how can it make Trump look bad
No doubt, but it remains a Christian day regardless.
False flagging is nothing new...
Whoa... You’re absolutely right. Didn’t think about that. This is going to get really... Murky.
Nailed it. That is what the Left does. They project onto others what they themselves are doing. As you said, in this case Hillary is projecting her projections.
Manaforts daughter claims in hacked text that he communicated via draft emails never sent. Not tech savvy enough to know if those can be accessed by forensics.
I don't know much about Manafort, but I have never been comfortable with Americans like this collecting millions of dollars from foreign political officials to help them run their campaigns. The whole thing has enormous potential for conflicts of interest that could put these people at odds with our own government here at home.
