After months of the liberal media ridiculing Trump over his claim that Obama spied on him during the election, Trump finally got vindication this week. America learned the truth on Tuesday that Obama did in fact unconstitutionally spy on Trump throughout the presidential election, leaving Barack Obama with his pants down yet again.
Now former intelligence officer Lt. Col Tony Shaffer just revealed that Obama’s wiretapping was not only a federal crime, but says that the results of this investigation will likely result in Obama being brought up on FELONY CHARGES. The colonel’s dire prediction about Obama’s future is sending shock-waves through the black hearts of liberals all across America today, as it’s now thrown a monkey wrench into Obama’s plans to stage his “political comeback” this fall.
In a recent interview with Trending Today USA, Lt. Col Tony Shaffer called ‘Obamagate’ an “order of magnitude” even bigger than the Watergate scandal because the incident included “using nation-state resources for purposes of political gain.”
When asked if Obama could be arrested for violating the law, he said that it would be the “first time a former president could be indicted for a felony.”
“…I think it is very possible that he acted outside of the scope of his duties, responsibilities and authorities to turn the resources of a nation-state on a candidate. This is, as I’ve said before, soviet-dictator level wrongdoing,” he added.
Shaffer said that Obama using government resources to spy on Trump was for the sole purpose of getting Hillary into office, as Obama hoped the wiretapping would produce enough “dirt” on Trump to sabotage his presidential run.
Given Shaffer’s lengthy military career, his rise to the top of the American intelligence community, and his current senior position at the prestigious London Center for Policy Research, his prediction about Obama shouldn’t be scoffed at. Being brought up on felony charges would completely destroy Obama’s plan of making his political comeback this year, as he’d be trying to figure out a way to keep himself out of prison instead of spending his hours obsessing with ways to bring Trump down.
The Hill reported on just how extensive Obama’s spying truly was, as this unconstitutional move wasn’t just limited to listening in on Trump’s calls. They reported:
If these reports are accurate, it means U.S. intelligence agencies secretly surveilled at least a half dozen Trump associates. And those are just the ones we know about.
Besides Manafort, the officials include former Trump advisers Carter Page and Michael Flynn. Last week, we discovered multiple Trump “transition officials” were “incidentally” captured during government surveillance of a foreign official. We know this because former Obama adviser Susan Rice reportedly admitted “unmasking,” or asking to know the identities of, the officials. Spying on U.S. citizens is considered so sensitive, their names are supposed to be hidden or “masked,” even inside the government, to protect their privacy.
In May, former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and former Acting Attorney General Sally Yates acknowledged they, too, reviewed communications of political figures, secretly collected under President Obama.
I really doubt that Trump would bring Obama to trial, but wouldn’t it be deliciously ironic to see Trump at the the podium announcing that, “For the good of the country, I’m extending clemency to former president Obama for his serious, serious crimes against the Constitution.”
“He will be protected by the Media!!!”
The media put a KNOWN & INELIGIBLE marxist muslim America-hating faggot illegal alien in the oval office for 8 long years. An enemy combatant. The media need to be brought to justice, too.
It would be interesting to be on that jury.
Yeah sure, bud. Libs are just quaking in their boots....with laughter.
Lt Col Tony Schaffer used to be on Fox all the time until a couple of months ago. What happened?
Sadly most Americans don’t know about any of this.
From his lips to Jeff Sessions’ ears.....
Nothing will happen to Obama, he’s untouchable.
Deep state was given billions to manipulate the American process,imo. Congress did nothing.
“Lt Col Tony Schaffer used to be on Fox all the time until a couple of months ago. What happened?”
Good question.
Even better, ‘I’ve already had my lawyers build a pardon for my predecessor. I hope to execute that pardon by 2020, since legally I have to run it by my AG Jeff ‘Magoo’ Sessions first.’
‘In the meantime I would advise my predecessor against any further autobiographies’.
He was a willing tool. I ‘ll have to see it to believe it. They are throwing us a bone. To make people think our govt is willing to fight corruption.
Lt Col Tony Schaffer used to be on Fox all the time until a couple of months ago. What happened?
You mean, like, until Oct 31 of last year? beats the fuQ outta me ;0
Believe it when I see it.
He was on with Martha McCallum Feb. 14 about the school shooting in Florida.
If charges are filed against Obama, there will be riots like we have not seen before (Picture the OWS riots times ten).
To prevent this the GOP will cave and scape goats will be sacrificed. Susan Rice comes to mind.
Obama will proclaim his innocence: "witch Hunt", "racist", "Putin ordered this" etc.
Much as I would like to see it, it will not happen.
So this may be too obvious to bother adding it to the thread, but can we safely assume that the Russian collusion story was developed as a reason for all this surveillance since it must have been obvious at some point (to Obama and his associates) that they were detected and all this would come out. They hope that the Russian interference story will provide a plausible excuse, and have been pushing it non-stop ever since about December 2016 which is probably when they knew they had been detected.
I concur. I will believe if it actually happens.
Correction:
Jeff Sessions has been AG for 1 year, 1 month, 24 days, too long.
Loose the felony snowball on the Obozo. If prosecuted for All of his felonies and found guilty (no question of his guilt), he won’t be free to ever spend all the money he scammed from the American tax payers. Better even still, we won’t have to see or hear of him ever again.
