Fox News's Andrew Napolitano said late Tuesday there is no evidence to support President Trumps Spygate theory that the FBI planted spies during his 2016 presidential campaign.
Napolitano, the news network's senior judicial analyst, said on "The Story With Martha MacCallum" that Trumps lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, is making a baseless claim.
The allegations by Mayor Giuliani over the weekend, which would lead to us believe that the Trump people think that the FBI had an undercover agent who inveigled his way into the campaign and was there as a spy on the campaign, seem to be baseless, Napolitano said.
There is no evidence for that whatsoever, he added.
Giuliani suggested on Sunday that former President Obama and his top intelligence officials knew that the FBI had used a top-secret informant to allegedly spy on Trumps campaign.
The FBI did use an informant, identified in media reports as American professor Stefan Halper, who met with three Trump campaign advisers in 2016 George Papadopoulos, Carter Page and Sam Clovis.
No evidence has emerged, however, that the informant was used to spy on the campaign for political purposes.

Well, except the part where they admitted spying on him....
“...The FBI did use an informant, identified in media reports as American professor Stefan Halper, who met with three Trump campaign advisers in 2016 George Papadopoulos, Carter Page and Sam Clovis.

Lawyerly quibbles and bits. It is all political.
Deep State appears to be collapsing. Now they cannot even organize their mass brainwashing messages. So we have two excuses from the evil conspirators. Hey, the decision to spy on Trump given the evidence (?) was what the American people would want us to do. Huh ? What about what our laws would require that you do ? You know, those laws written by we the people. The new excuse is there is no evidence supporting a spy investigating Trump for political purposes cause there is no evidence for political motivation. Huh ? No evidence for political motivation in something the globalists did ? Ha ha. Now that is funny. You globalist scumbags are only motivated politically which means monetarily.
If it can be shown that there were no informants in the Hillary campaign, in spite of “known” threats and contacts with Russians, it will be by far the strongest argument in public to discredit the IC and FBI honchos. It needs to be hammered constantly on friendly news sites.
The deep state vermin is on Fox News AGAIN, claiming there’s no spy and even if there was it’s no big deal. Fox is pushing this story aggressively - even playing clips from other networks reporting on their “big news” that some dopey commentator from New Jersey doesn’t agree with Trump.
and don’t forget the Bernie and Jill shows....where were their spys?...
So there are plenty of contradictions as they try to split hairs.
But remember that FNC suspended Napolitano last year for going too far in pushing the "Obama spied on Trump" line, so now Napolitano is holding back and playing with subtle differences and distinctions in meaning, perhaps in order to keep his job.

Time for judge Nap to exit silently.
Manipulating a presidential election is the highest form of Treason.

Haha! And I'll bet he was wearing that same old crusty pin-striped suit, which is apparently the only one he owns.
