Ex-Secret Service agent: Media missing 1 huge wiretap point
WND ^ | 3-6-2017 | Paul Bremmer

Posted on 03/06/2017 9:25:25 PM PST by Trump_vs_Evil_Witch

'The FBI's not going to tell the Secret Service if they're monitoring the president-elect'

“The Secret Service does ECM sweeps, electronic counter-measures, where they go in frequently and look for listening devices, radio frequencies, all kinds of things to make sure the president or president-elect is not being, in fact, wiretapped or listened in on on specific phone lines,” Bongino revealed.

The former agent, noting Trump had Secret Service protection as a candidate, thinks it’s much more likely the Secret Service discovered something while performing one of their ECM sweeps of Trump Tower and later found out it was the DOJ that had ordered the surveillance.

Actually, some SecServ left the WH because Trump wanted to keep his private security.

And, I think that was partly done for Melania and Barron too.

The head of the Secret Service resigned shortly after Trump took office.

This is correct, if it were the 1970’s.

But now the NSA can directly listen to the call without any “bugs.”

OftheOhio. Thanks for telling me that I wasn’t imaging things, that I’m not crazy.

Now would you please tell that to my wife?

If the phone company is directing the data to another party besides those that are on the call then the Secret Service would never know. Unless they had access to all that routing. Which isn’t on their end.

It’s all VOIP and digital.

True, all wire taps are done in the Central Office. Nothing is done at the residence anymore. Hasn’t been done this way for years. And at&t, Verizon, CenturyLink and Frontier must comply with the Federal government.

For all we know Trump might be negotiating their fate right now. His evidence might be that good.☺

“The windows of the oval office are designed to defeat eavesdropping.”

I would like to think so. I’ve seen some really stupid things in my life though and have been exposed to some of the tech, enough to scare me about the possibilities, directional microphones is the least of them.

"Let us also not forget that Rudy Giuliani was hired by Trump for Cybersecurity."

Giulliani would be someone who knows a lot about the corruption in the Obama Administration, if nothing else, probably from his contacts in the NYPD. He would suspect that Obama would pull something dirty, and the people who were hired to conduct cybersecurity would be looking for bugs or other signs of surveillance. Hopefully his team was good enough that they warned Trump to be careful because he might be under surveillance.

They could also have surveilled Cruz, Rubio, Kasich and even Bernie, among others. Time will tell.

The NSA data mining comes to my mind.

“only a full investigation by Congress”

A full investigation by a gang of political hacks will only be the “Mother of all cluster£ucks” and a massive coverup and muddying of the waters.

Yep, I remember hearing Trump say back during the campaign (or maybe it was during the debates) the the only secure way to do something is to have a face to face conversation or send a paper note that someone will read.

As a computer guy, I kinda believe that to. It’s pretty much impossible to completely trust these boxes we carry around.

a rare mention of Flynn’s office in Trump Tower:

4 March: Daily Mail: Geoff Earle: Now it’s revealed that Jared met with the Russian ambassador, too – after getting smuggled into Trump Tower for a get-together with ex security advisor Mike Flynn
At the time Trump Tower was the unofficial White House, and every coming and going was in public - except those which the Trump transition team organized to keep under wraps.
It is unclear where they met, but it is known that Kushner and Flynn had offices a floor below the one used by the then-president-elect...

Has anyone noticed the news story that said that the “server” for the Trump Tower is located somewhere in New Jersey? Thus, the “claims” that the Trump Tower was not “tapped” means nothing if they are “tapping” the New Jersey location which everyone seems to be mum about. Also, a friend of mine that is involved in “counter, counter, counter surveillance” left over from his bounty hunter days told me that if you have an electrical outlet in any room, he can surveil you. Just sayin’.
