VJ at Bolshevik central. Serious question, seems that wiretapping is okay as long as we are trying to protect American sovereignty. We could be dealing with a Muslim brotherhood connection.

Mmmm huh...just like giving 50 cal. machine guns to the Mexican Cartels down on the Border was "okay".

Delusion - and the deceit required to justify delusional Policy - is not good. Won't end well.

Was kinda hoping to hear from the lib constituents since they seem to be out in full force these days, would be nice to get their opinions on record before they receive their marching orders.

I won't hold my breath.

Someone on Fox and Friends now attempting to make a distinction between Obama the person and the Obama administration as if you can't accuse Obama if someone in his administration executed the wire tap order...

The mental gymnastics will be in full swing.

Can y'all knock it off with the BS? If Trump tower was wire tapped then he must had a warrant, which means it was probable cause. You really think Trump has proof? Why won't he show it? Probably because it's another conspiracy theory like the birther issue. This dude makes up to much nonsense and I feel bad for the gulible people that fall for it.

Presidents don't wiretap people.

You're assuming they can actually think for themselves. That's a bold assumption.

False. I can guarantee you if the NSA decided they needed to wiretap Trump, they would most certainly approach the president himself for approval. They are not going to go forward wiretapping a political opponent of the president without running it by him first. They are going to cover their asses and make sure the buck stops with him.

So there is evidence that Trump was acting against the country with a foreign agent after he had already won the Republican nomination?????

For U.S. persons, the FISC judge must find probable cause that one of four conditions has been met:
quote:


(1) the target knowingly engages in clandestine intelligence activities on behalf of a foreign power which "may involve" a criminal law violation;

(2) the target knowingly engages in other secret intelligence activities on behalf of a foreign power under the direction of an intelligence network and his activities involve or are about to involve criminal violations;

(3) the target knowingly engages in sabotage or international terrorism or is preparing for such activities; or

(4) the target knowingly aids or abets another who acts in one of the above ways.


You have no concern that a political opponent used FISA to spy on the Republican nominee for president????

At this point, Trump should request a FISA Warrant to tap Obama; that is likely why Obama moved Jarrett into close quarters...so they can talk, with no record.

If Obama's prints (paper trail or whistleblower) can be found on the tapping of Trump Tower, Post Election, you have what is essentially an effort to bring down a POTUS elect. That is big stuff.

Waiting for the talking points with the "common sense" explanations.

I think the case could be made that anybody ever having contact with Dreamy Mcmompants should be wiretapped. And really, under RICO statutes, that should be expanded to everybody that is part of the worldwide Soros/Obama/Clinton/DNC criminal conspiracy.

On Saturday, Representative Eric Swalwell, a Democrat who is a member of the House Intelligence Committee, told Fox News that Trump "is not credible when it comes to talking about Russia."

Swalwell downplayed Trump's allegation. "I think this is just the president up early doing his routine tweeting, he said. "Presidents don't wiretap anyone. These are pursued by the Department of Justice in accordance with the FBI and signed off by a judge."

Under U.S. law, a federal court would have to have found probable cause that the target of the surveillance is an "agent of a foreign power" in order to approve a warrant authorizing electronic surveillance of Trump Tower.
