The Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee says his panel will probe President Donald Trump's allegations that Trump Tower was wire-tapped by President Obama's administration. Rep. Devin Nunes, Rep for California, said his committee 'will make inquiries into whether the government was conducting surveillance activities on any political party's campaign officials or surrogates', the chair said in a statement Sunday afternoon.
Earlier Sunday, Senate Intelligence Committee member, Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., suggested his committee would look into the matter as well. 'We've already begun an inquiry on the intelligence committee into Russia's efforts to undermine confidence in our political system,' Cotton said.
'That inquiry is going to be thorough, and we're going to follow the facts wherever they lead us. And I'm sure that this matter will be a part of that inquiry.'
Cotton's committee chair, Sen. Richard Burr, R-N.C., made a broader statement. 'As I've said since the beginning and have repeated since, the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence will follow the evidence where it leads, and we will continue to be guided by the intelligence and facts as we compile our findings,' Burr said Sunday.

LOL... Trump has made Twitter useful ... Twitter has a daily struggle, as they grapple with the idea of banning Trump’s account ... will they and when ?
The F.B.I. director, James B. Comey, asked the Justice Department this weekend to publicly reject President Trump’s assertion that President Barack Obama ordered the tapping of Mr. Trump’s phones, senior American officials said on Sunday. Mr. Comey has argued that the highly charged claim is false and must be corrected, they said, but the department has not released any such statement.
I didn't see Comey publicly rejecting the Russian hacking claims - even though he told Preibus in private there was no evidence. He refused to make a public statement on it.
Braaaaak new all their SECRETS and used them to keep them in line.
Or at least nothing positive for Trump and those of us who support him.
Look at all the times we thought Hillary was going down...
Congress is part of the problem. Ben Sasse was a HUGE never Trump guy. Now we those have McCain, McConnell and Ryan running the circus.
All of them need to be dragged into the street and hung from lamp posts.
I’m afraid this will be used against Trump somehow. I don’t trust the Republicans in Congress.
What they need to do RIGHT NOW is get all of Trump’s people in their proper governmental positions so he can advance his agenda. He has to get a move on and there are way too many distractions and obstructions.
Also, Braaaaak must not have found dirt on Trump or it would have been used with gusto.
Obama and his goons are headed to gitmo.
Valerie will bet a new orange jump suit.
perhaps they can’t make thatbstaement. Perhaps that is why Comey said that the DOJ needs to come oit and say it. perhaps it’s a trap for the DOJ.
It is ON!

ON like DONKEY KONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I want to see head shots and teabagging.
I want humble brags. I want to stomp their sorry asses into the mud hole they emerged from.

“Actually, I think the opposite will be true.”
Well, I’m not hung up on being right. Hope your version turns out to be more accurate than mine...
