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.

I haven’t seen him tweeting as much which tells me the COS is crippling him.

Yawn. Like anything is going to come of this. President Trump may drain the swamp a little, but even eight years wouldn’t be enough to drain it completely.

If this story is true, Manafort was wire tapped long before the election.
U can bet if there was something incriminating against Trump, it would
have been leaked BEFORE the election.

CNN makes it sound like Trump / Manafort did something wrong, but it was Obama playing games.

I know it’s a Captain Obvious here but that is one ummm .... freaky ... individual. I’ll let the reader think their own appropriate adjectives to add there.

Buried in the article, it says that Manafort has a residence in Trump Tower. Trump’s tweet now proven completely true.

CNN makes it sound like Trump / Manafort did something wrong. A behind the scenes peek at CNN as they attempt to twist the story.
