Following Trump's stunning allegation that Obama wiretapped the Trump Tower in October of 2016, prior to the presidential election, which may or may not have been sourced from a Breitbart story, numerous Democrats and media pundits have come out with scathing accusations that Trump is either mentally disturbed, or simply has no idea what he is talking about.
The best example of this came from Ben Rhodes, a former senior adviser to President Obama in his role as deputy National Security Advisor, who slammed Trump's accusation, insisting that "No President can order a wiretap. Those restrictions were put in place to protect citizens from people like you." He also said "only a liar" could make the case, as Trump suggested, that Obama wire tapped Trump Tower ahead of the election.
It would appear, however, that Rhodes is wrong, especially as pertains to matters of Foreign Intelligence Surveillance, and its associated FISA court, under which the alleged wiretap of Donald Trump would have been granted, as it pertained specifically to Trump's alleged illicit interactions with Russian entities.

It will be rewarding to see Obama & Hillary housed in the same federal prison..
Those two will skip the country if they sense the Justice Dept is getting close.
I have been watching talking heads most of the day.
Even though the RATs were calling for an investigation up until
this morning when Trump tweeted.
I have not heard one RAT talking head call for an investigation
today. Has anybody else noticed it too?
I.e. The Rats REALLY don’t want a real investigation.
An investigation into wiretapping Trump will make Watergate
look like a warm up act.

zero hedge has been doing a lot of grunt work lately. kudos to them.
Now get this. President Obozo Admitted the HE ( OBOZO) authorized the the WIRE TOP on Andrea MERKLE, the president of Germany. Obozo is a LIAR!!
Hos argument is that he never ordered wiretaps on US citizens. Nuanced.
Sure would love to see Rhoades and Obama Sharing A federal prison cell in the near future.
It is time to seriously burn Obama,..
...if he won’t let Trump be President, Trump should use every federal law enforcement resource possible to investigate & prosecute every applicable federal law to shut the communist subversive down.....then go after Schumer & Pelosi....
I thought DJT was going after Hitlery first? So we get a two-fer’ now? Awesome. FUBO.
> Hos argument is that he never ordered wiretaps on US citizens. Nuanced.
Yes, suppose he ordered the wiretaps on “the Trump campaign” by way of its senior members. Nuanced enough?
As though his personal slave, Loretta Lynch, wouldn’t break any law for Obama. She was the least principled, most ignorant Attorney General in history.
Team Trump is always three steps ahead of his/our enemies. These imbeciles have never met a man like DJT b4 - Rhodes will tomorrow’s TOAST, so let the fun begin!
MAGA!
The Liberal Messiah still has not accepted that he’s out of office or that Donald Trump is President. The Democrats are planning to stage some sort of coup. To them, elections are only advisory.
Here's my wild speculation ...
1. The four senior members of Trump's campaign were his two sons, Ivanka Trump, and Jared Kushner.
2. The person who sought the FISA warrant presented irrefutable evidence of financial payments from the Russian bank to Trump.
3. All of the evidence was accurate, and clearly indicated ties between Trump's people and the Russians. The Russian bank was dealing with its landlord and PAYING RENT FOR ITS SPACE IN TRUMP TOWER.
And that's all there was to it, folks.
[Those two will skip the country if they sense the Justice Dept is getting close.]
At this point, I would find even that wonderfully-satisfying.
Tricky response by Rhodes. The operative word is “Ordered”. Obama just “authorized” the action.
