Barack and Michelle Obama have been seen out for the first time since Donald Trump's controversial wire-tapping claims made international headlines.
The two smiled for the cameras as the exited the National Gallery of Art in Washington on Sunday, seeming at ease amid the row over whether the former President abused his powers to enact a "Watergate-level scandal" in a bid to topple Trump.
Donald Trump is yet to offer any evidence of whether the wire-tapping took place, and Obama's intelligence chief has denied any such activity took place.
"Neither President Obama nor any White House official ever ordered surveillance on any U.S. citizen. Any suggestion otherwise is simply false," Obama spokesman Kevin Lewis said in a statement.
Ben Rhodes, Mr Obama's former national security adviser, strongly denied the allegations.
Mr Rhodes, addressing his comments to Mr Trump, said : "No president can order a wiretap. Those restrictions were put in place to protect citizens from people like you."

Can you say "three dollar bill"?
I don’t know, but Barry sure looks “European” in that photo.
(And Shelly like she’s been eating more than veggies.)
You got that right. LOL.
why is it i should give a damn what these losers are doing in their private lives ?
Wearing black has a “slimming” effect...
“Wearing black has a slimming effect”
Not having your own taxpayer funded Whitehouse chef on call 24/7 can too.
Barry looks like he needs a LV man purse. A fake LV man purse. Yikes.
Reggie back too?
Sh sure plumped up fast.
That’s right boy...10 steps behind...
$2 bill with that pleather fancy boy jacket.
Just as a mafia godfather could order a murder and never be proved connected with it, Obama will be able to maintain “innocence” in Trump wiretaps.
Well,sort of.....
Purpose of outing is to show they are not hiding out / guilty of wiretapping.
They went to a neutral site as opposed to a criticizable site (commie coffeehouse).
Doesn’t say what culture art they went to see, but most of the stuff wouldn’t interest them.
It’s just a public appearance for the appearance of innocence.
These Azzhats should be deported to Kenya as traitors.
Interesting. I saw that photo and assumed it was the media’s way of saying the Obama was out of the closet. LOL.
Barry is such a good muzzie. Walking three paces behind her man.
Ha ha!
