Washington (CNN)US investigators wiretapped former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort under secret court orders before and after the election, sources tell CNN, an extraordinary step involving a high-ranking campaign official now at the center of the Russia meddling probe.
The government snooping continued into early this year, including a period when Manafort was known to talk to President Donald Trump.
Some of the intelligence collected includes communications that sparked concerns among investigators that Manafort had encouraged the Russians to help with the campaign, according to three sources familiar with the investigation. Two of these sources, however, cautioned that the evidence is not conclusive.

Good stuff there, gaijin. He needs to hear us mocking him in one huge ROAR.
Trojan Hose Sessions willfully engaged in deceitful conduct against our President. He stood right by the President-Elect’s side and accepted his appointment knowing FULL WELL he intended to recuse himself. He deserves the same fate as all the other traitors. Despicable deceitful little pus face.

I wonder when they’re going to edit the word “wiretap” out of the headline like the NYT did.

CNN is lying again. They said getting a fisa warrant means you have proof of wrong doing and it’s very hard to get them approved by a judge.
This is 100% false. FISA Warrants are almost always approved. The fact that some have been denied when trying to spy on Trump is the real news.

Your observation is so very true, DesertRhino.
The sad truth, though, is that DJT and his administration are doing absolutely NOTHING to pursue ANY of the illegal activities of the 0bama regime...and those illegal activities are in the HUNDREDS.
Draining the swamp very likely means getting some sludge on your boots. Let’s get to it.

The Dems manufactuered Trump dossier has proven to be a gold mine justifying all kinds of underhanded, unscrupulous behavior.

Exactly. And Obamas gonna change the world Oct. 31-Nov. 1 with 200 leaders from around the world. What event is he speaking to?
Interesting date (Halloween, "sacred" to Satanists....no joke!)
If the Lord calls us home, then they can have all the "Peace and Safety" conferences they want.

Assuming that is true, why? The DNC emails were at worst embarrassing. They showed the DNC was partisan, but anyone with 2 brain cells could tell the DNC was rigged. Bernie never stood a chance and it had nothing to do with collusion and everything to do with the way the DNC counts delegates. The DNC leak did not derail her campaign. I don’t think that the DNC leak even made the list in her book of reasons for losing.
If they were willing to go to such lengths to cover up a small embarrassment, I shudder to think what they have done over much more important topics.

I’ll keep asking: Where the heck is Jeff Sessions? Has the guy gone AWOL and no one told us? The DOJ needs to act and now.

Sessions is a back stabbing, cowardly scumbag - there is no doubt about that anymore.
