Trump team communications captured by intelligence community surveillance, Nunes says
Fox ^ | 03/22/2017 | Corey Derespina

Posted on 03/22/2017 10:47:24 AM PDT by God luvs America

Members of the intelligence community collected ‘incidental’ communications of the Trump transition team during legal surveillance operations, producing ‘dozens’ of reports which eventually unmasked several individuals’ identities and which were ‘widely disseminated,’ a top lawmaker said Wednesday afternoon. House Intelligence Chairman Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., said none of the reports he had read mentioned Russia or Russians and he was unsure whether the surveillance occurred at Trump Tower. Nunes also was unsure if then President-elect Trump was captured by the surveillance, which occurred in November, December and January. “I recently confirmed on numerous occasions the intelligence community incidentally collected intelligence,” Nunes said.

Reasonable people can come to no other conclusion that it was TRUMP who was under surveillance. Once THE RUSSIANS are eliminated as a target, nothing else makes sense other than TRUMP was the target. ILLEGALLY!

They constantly spy on the Russians. Anyone talking to them will be monitored too.

Pelley has said night after night after night after night after night that Trump lied, that he’s not to be trusted, that he’s unstable, that he’s divorced from reality, that he throws tantrums, etc. Constant nonstop on every newscast. Pelley is the one divorced from reality. FYI, one of his besties was gay. Just saying.

Based on questions to Spicer, I see the MSM has a new plan... “Isn’t Trump interfering in an ongoing investigation by looking into this investigation?”

Was Rogers the person that after the election visited Trump at Trump Tower resulting in James Clapper getting all upset?

If so, maybe the good guys have been laying the groundwork for this since November?

Now, why isn’t the media asking why Obama ordered raw intelligence data to be made available to many more agencies just days before he left office, thereby increasing the likely hood that such information might be leaked. They don’t want to know the answer, that’s why. A very good case could be made that Obama was briefed on these “intercepts” and that together with the “Russia” meme being put out by the Obama CIA, NSA and FBI prior to and after the campaign, and the Clinton campaign accusations about Trump and Russia, that Obama then changed the procedures so that raw intelligence data could be released to 16 intelligence organizations to increase the likelihood of leaks. That is not a stretch at all.

I think the likely scenario will point to James Clapper. He and the NSA were spying on Russian communications, especially the Russian ambassador, during the whole Wikileaks frustration (for the democrats and Hillary.)

As you inferred, "US Persons" began to enter the tapped conversations. Someone within the NSA leaked these names out to their favorite liberal media dirt bags. I believe Comey was probably being truthful in his testimony. We will soon know it was the NSA behind this mess. Unless Trump himself decides to not reveal the real conspirators.

Why has not asked him the simple question if Obama knew about this?

This is a ticking time bomb for Obama and the press - the sequel factor that was associated with Trumps wire tapping tweet - confirmed it very close to the truth.

A couple of other things. If Hillary had been elected, and Trump had voiced concerns about being under surveillance, the media would have laughed, jeered, and slapped their thunder thighs in glee about what a loser he was. And of course, there would have been little chance that he would have gotten confirming data. And even if he did, they would have said it was fake.

But now, Nunes has said that the information was brought to him by someone who thought he should have it. Now will the media and the rodents start screaming to prosecute the leakers? LOL!!!!

Oh yes, and Rush is now saying that the media is beside itself. HAHAHA YA THINK???

Just out of curiosity, does any of this captured communication expose collusion with media outlets, directing coverage, leaking questions and otherwise manipulating the opinion of the electorate in a coordinated action?

Oh, right, this isn’t the DNC and Hillary.

Still waiting on the media outrage over that.. Think it’ll happen sometime in a hundred years or so?

The important thing here is Trump is at least partially vindicated but unfortunately the press will point out any mistakes he made like it was not wiretapping or there is no info that the brown bomber initiated it.

You assuming this is all there..my bet its not.. it just the start of the crack in the dam... truth is we already knew this with the Flynn leak...

But the original report was the Trump servers were surveyed before the election and there was a fisa a warrant... this is the next thing on whistleblowers going to have to bring forwarded

And my bet is that Judge Napolitano charge of UK involve of surveillance of Trump before the election also will be proved true.

My Guess: GCHQ picked up communications while monitoring Nigel Farage, who was in frequent contact with Trump’s team during the BREXIT vote, and the run up to the 2016 U.S. election.

The disclosure of Nunes makes another thing certain now. Once he says he has info that Trump was monitored and that such surveillance was legally done, it forced Comey’s hand. The surveillance may have been legal - but leaking Flynn’s name is not. Comey refused to answer whether there was an investigation into the leak of Flynn’s name - trying to hide behind the leftist meme that Trump’s tweet about being bugged was an outrageous lie. As long as nobody could prove Trump was wiretapped, Comey was safe not to look for anything. Now that Nunes has come out with this publicly, Comey will now HAVE to investigate. And he has to give what he finds to Sessions - all of it, and do his job diligently or get fired. Nunes basically forced Comey into ratting out the leakers by saying what he said today. Very clever of Mr. Nunes.

If it turns out they tapped optical fibers (very difficult, I know) the fake-news MSM will say it proves Trump is a liar.

They don't have to tapp them they require the telcos to wire them into the major fiber hubs.
