Mr. Obama will be investigated. His communications with the DNC will be parsed in excuisite detail, publically. Surveillance found to be conducted without a FISA warrant will result in indictments. Hows that whole Russia thing working out for you Dems? http://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...nel-will-address-trump-wiretapping-claim.html
Absolutely great . Trump has been in office less than 2 months and he's in a bigger mess than Obama was in 8 years.
Obama seems to have broken the law. There will certainly be interminable investigations on it. What law is Trump suspected of breaking? None. Zip. Zero. Zilch. If you folks want to play Scorched Earth you had better get into your asbestos onesie because the heat just got turned up.
There have been numerous GOP Obama investigations the last 8 years ,how many convictions?None. Zip. Zero. Zilch.No cabinet member resignations or recusals due to scandal either.
Well the Dems sure broke the law now and will have, as private citizens, to pay for their own defense teams. Maybe they can ask George Soros for a loan or maybe they can start a legal defense fund on GoFundMe. Either way, your team overplayed its hand to an epic degree and some of them are going to jail.
Here are the problematic aspects of the Obama surveillance on Trump’s team. First, it is not apparent FISA could ever be invoked. Second, it is possible Obama’s team may have perjured themselves before the FISA court by withholding material information essential to the FISA court’s willingness to permit the government surveillance. Third, it could be that Obama’s team illegally disseminated and disclosed FISA information in direct violation of the statute precisely prohibiting such dissemination and disclosure. FISA prohibits, under criminal penalty, Obama’s team from doing any of the three. At the outset, the NSA should have never been involved in a domestic US election. Investigating the election, or any hacking of the DNC or the phishing of Podesta’s emails, would not be a FISA matter. It does not fit the definition of war sabotage or a “grave” “hostile” war-like attack on the United States, as constrictively covered by FISA. It is your run-of-the-mill hacking case covered by existing United States laws that require use of the regular departments of the FBI, Department of Justice, and Constitutionally Senate-appointed federal district court judges, and their appointed magistrates, not secretive, deferential FISA courts. It is clear abuse of power and highly illegal.
If this turns out to be true, that Obama ordered the FISA wiretaps on Trump which yeilded no evidence of criminal activity, he's done. Clearly a political smear campaign to bring down a political opponent in a representative democracy. That's it for that cotton picker. And I rarely use that term. They want a war, they can have one.,
