DONALD Trump has claimed Barack Obama had his wires tapped in Trump Tower during the US election.
(Excerpt) Read more at thesun.co.uk ...
He moved on.
To discredit Sessions serves a purpose ..... for the other side.
No one stood up to illegal immigrations. Unvetted refugees front hostile nations. And stood up for Trump more tha Sessions. To make him look like a weak coward, as the earlier post did, is absolutely wrong.
I think after time for a tap expires they are required to tell the subject of the tap After a few months. If so this continued past the election.
Best case is if it were court approved is the info gathered was shared for political purposes.
puppet-masters = soros, muslim brotherhood, etc.
Trump needs a guy as AG that makes Himmler look like a pussy.
Don’t know that good old boy Jeff has the stones, the jury is still out.
Kelly at DHS is good so far.
If there was a court order or an attempt to obtain a court order couldn’t the AG find out?
“feckless and dithering”
Are you on the right thread?? Read the thread title!
The President of the United States just accused the former President of the United States of committing a crime, and said this is a scandal of Watergate proportions.
Donald J. TrumpVerified account @realDonaldTrump · 3h3 hours ago "Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my wires tapped in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!"
Donald J. TrumpVerified account @realDonaldTrump · 3h3 hours ago "I'd bet a good lawyer could make a great case out of the fact that President Obama was tapping my phones in October, just prior to Election!"
Donald J. TrumpVerified account @realDonaldTrump · 3h3 hours ago "Is it legal for a sitting President to be wire tapping a race for president prior to an election? Turned down by court earlier. A NEW LOW!"
Donald J. TrumpVerified account @realDonaldTrump · 3h3 hours ago "How low has President Obama gone to tapp my phones during the very sacred election process. This is Nixon/Watergate. Bad (or sick) guy!"
There are two possibilities:
1. Trump is wrong, exaggerating, or lying
2. Obama is a traitor and a criminal
In either case, this is so serious that it requires an in-depth, far reaching, and immediate investigation.
Tell you what: if Sessions takes concrete action and informs Congress and the American people that the Justice Department is launching a criminal probe into whether or not Obama and his henchmen committed a crime against Trump and his family, and Sessions does so within the next critical 48 hours, I will say I was wrong, and dance in the streets.
If Sessions does not, then he is a do-nothing man who does not deserve to hold the position of Attorney General of the United States.
Agreed, but they'll be highly protected. Start with the puppets, because none of them want to go to prison. Someone will talk (or already has) and that will set the wheels in motion.
As the self-appointed know-it-all, I certainly hopes Trumps gives you a job.
There’s a well-documented paper trail.
FISA denied the request....but the dumbos did it, anyway.
At this point, I'll stand by my statement that if AG Sessions had not recused himself from the investigation into bogus claims, he would not be free to pursue real issues.
The date on that whistleblower story is February 15, 2017.
So, why is this ‘breaking’ now?
As a self-appointed know-it-all over me and this issue, please share your wisdom with the thread.
The attorney general said he recused himself on matters regarding the Russians and the Trump campaign (which was a big mistake). If he uses that excuse to recuse himself on this issue of criminal wiretapping, then that is even more damning for Jeff Sessions.
“It will be quickly dismissed.”
I wonder about that...or if you were part of a pack of conniving lefty would you drag it out for as long as you could?
Look how many years they pounded away at Sarah Palin..even after she was no longer a real threat but merely a possible threat.
It’s a big nothing burger and Sessions and Trump know that. The democrats want resistance so they can continue with their smear campaign. They really don’t want to get to the bottom of it because there is nothing.
Sessions isn’t a dummy and neither is Trump.
If he were tapped, too, then he would have to recuse himself. He was a part of the campaign, he has to recuse himself. Good luck finding someone who doesn’t need to recuse him or herself.
Who pulls Obama’s strings?
An illegal wiretap on a Campaign, isn't a Campaign issue? That's puzzling Batman!
Sessions isnt a dummy and neither is Trump.
I believe the bad guys will lose this battle.
I believe they are already losing.
They are accomplishing one thing though.
That is to create as much chaos and confusion as possible.
They have very little left in their bag of tricks.
And to barrow a phrase Rev Wright “their chickens are coming home to roost.
