Wednesday, Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA), held a press conference where he claimed he possessed proof that U.S. citizens involved in the Trump transition were incidentally surveilled by the Obama administration. Nunes clarified that the evidence hed reviewed was not related to, Russia, the investigation of Russian activities, or the Trump team.
Rep. Nunes announcement came as a shock to ranking committee Democrats, who learned the news via the press conference. The White House was also unaware of Nunes findings until the press conference.
An Intelligence Community (IC) insider approached Rep. Nunes with the bombshell evidence after FBI Director Comeys testimony before Congress Monday. Or at least thats what Nunes claims.
As Nunes explained, members of Trumps transition team were surveilled incidentally, but what concerned him most was that transition team members had been unmasked. Rather than being referred to as American A (or something of the like) in surveillance reports, their identities were listed. Unmasking requires specific request and approval.
This incidental intelligence contained personal information about members of Trumps transition team was then disseminated to other IC members, but this had no intelligence significance at all and that would include people in the White House getting it, said Rep. Peter King (R-NY), House Intel Committee member.
Joining Fox News Bill OReilly Wednesday night Rep. King reiterated Rep. Nunes previous statements. Its worth noting that at the time of his interview with OReilly, King had not personally seen the information in Nunes possession, but had been briefed in detail by Nunes.
(VIDEO-AT-LINK)
King claimed the reports theyve sifted through are just the beginning and that theres much more. Seemingly contradicting one of Nunes claims, King indicated (again, second-hand knowledge here) that the intelligence reports read like surveillance reports, detailing where the subjects went and with whom they spoke.
According to King, this is not an isolated incident. There are many reports with same type of intel collection.
When questioned, Trump said he felt somewhat vindicated and was glad Nunes found what he did.
Hours later, CNN published a story with the following headline:
Even though, officials cautioned that the information was not conclusive and that the investigation is ongoing.
Its almost like the FBI swatted back. Almost.
CNN - Corrupt Non-relevant News
Ya think? Once again FR was proven correct when we were the ONLY news source convinced that Roberts was blackmailed by the Lightbringer -
How much you wanna bet Obama cannot be dragged off that faggot island because he's an Indonesian national. That'll be next Friday's big story LOL
Thanks in advance! :-)
Something truly dangerous is playing out in the IC. It really does appear that there are leakers determined to counter any evidence supporting Trump. I guess its the Comey Contingent, but theres no way to know. Yet.
What is going on today in the Untied States is unique in history. There is an attempted coup d'etat but not by the military but the intelligence community of our nation.
Few realize it but the elected executive is in a death struggle with factions of the intelligence. Some factions of the intelligence are hell bent on taking Trump down in their quest for socialism if not Marxism. Other patriot factions of the intelligence are leaking information though it puts them in great danger of criminal prosecution.
The battle is not against Trump but a battle against the United States as what it has been, which is a Constitutional Republic.
Our great nation will fail or perhaps live. If the deep state wins we will fail. If Trump wins as the defender of The Constitution, we might continue to be the great nation we were. We are not the great nation we were in the past.
If Obama was surveilling SCOTUS...
IC = Intelligence Community
From the article:
“...Unmasking requires specific request and approval. ...”
Who does the request?
Who does the approval?
Intelligence Community:)
I work for a hospital. It could not function without acronyms!
I thoroughly agree. The power struggle is remarkable and while I pray for the outcome to favor our republic, deep down I’m not optimistic.
Remember when Chuck Schumer said to Trump he should be wary of going up against them, that they have plenty of ways to destroy someone.
This is about more than Trump.
Thanks!
SE Mom: Ever see FLK? Funny Looking Kid. Seriously. Not used in PC days but have been told it was used quite frequently in the past.
Odds are it is true, but it will mean nothing until the information is public. I want names, dates, circumstances.
It will never happen. Just like Benghazi, it will go on & on & on until it
is “ old news.”
Used to be FLK is SOB until some parent saw it. Those were pre PC days
Funny looking kid is short of breath.
well possibly now that we have an AG that wuill actually do something, the repubs —MIGHT— find a backbone- we can hope anyways- I keep hearing about how sessiosn is suppsoed to be a bulldog- We’ll see i guess

Many forces are working against Trump. The obvious complete surveillance of Trump and his associates was set up by Obama and Hillary to take out Trump before the election. Surprise, Trump won and now all their misdeeds are out in the open.
Hat tip to LC for this information. It details four organizations that are working 24/7 to destroy Trump. (Mods- please let this stay as I feel this information is important for all FReepers to know and eventually all Patriotic Americans.) As follows:
"The current campaign against Trump is organized in secret by four associations:
Media Matters is tasked with picking up on Donald Trumps mistakes. You read his bulletin every day in your newspapers the President cant be trusted, he got this or that point wrong.
American Bridge 21st Century has collected more than 2,000 hours of videos showing Donald Trump over the years, and more than 18,000 hours of other videos of the members of his cabinet. It has at its disposition sophisticated technological equipment designed for the Department of Defense allegedly not in working order which enables it to look for contradictions between their older declarations and their current positions. It should be extending its work to 1,200 of the new Presidents collaborators.
Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington CREW is a firm of high level lawyers tasked with tracking anything that could create a scandal in the Trump administration. Most of the lawyers in this association work pro bono, for the cause. These are the people who prepared the case for Bob Ferguson, the Chief Prosecutor of the state of Washington, against the immigration decree (Executive Order 13769).
Shareblue is an electronic army which has already connected with 162 million internauts in the USA. Its job is to spread preordained themes, for example:
Trump is authoritarian and a thief.
Trump is under the influence of Vladimir Putin.
Trump is a weak and quick-tempered personality, hes a manic-depressive.
Trump was not elected by the majority of US citizens, and is therefore illegitimate.
His Vice-President, Mike Pence, is a fascist.
Trump is a billionaire who will constantly be faced with conflicts of interest between his personal affairs and those of state.
Trump is a puppet of the Koch brothers, who are famous for sponsoring the extreme right.
Trump is a white supremacist and a threat to minorities.
Anti-Trump opposition just keeps growing outside Washington.
To save democracy, lets support the democratic parliamentarians who are attacking Trump, and lets demolish those who are cooperating with him.
Overthrowing Trump will take time, so dont lets weaken in our resolve."
This is what President Trump is up against. Do what you can to support and help him. Man o' man, I didn't think it would be this bad. It seems everyone is against him.
Pray for President Trump, America and do what you can. Eternal Vigilance. . .
Ronaldus Magnus famously went over the heads of the rats and their media butt-boys. It is ever easier today, and DJT will mobilize, at the right time, the people who honored him with the presidency.
I hope so. Ready for the call. .

The odds are about 99% that Schiff is involved in the Awan scandal, which includes espionage and possible drug dealing. This is why he is squawking so loudly to distract people. Keep the Awan story on the internet.
