"Yes, apparently you did. On the Trump campaign, in an effort to subvert the will of the American people and fix an election in favor of your hand-chosen successor, Hillary Clinton. "Naturally, Twitter users had a field day with this tweet …Yes, we are finally learning about it

“Trump lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, implied that there may have been more than one spy. “I’m shocked to hear that they [the FBI] put a spy in the campaign of a major party candidate, or maybe two spies,” he told Fox & Friends. “Michael Caputo, a former Trump campaign adviser, also claims that there was more than one informant spying on the team. “Let me tell you something that I know for a fact … This informant, this person [who] they tried to plant into the campaign … he’s not the only person who came into the campaign. And the FBI is not the only Obama agency who came into the campaign.” “I know because they came at me. And I’m looking for clearance from my attorney to reveal this to the public. This is just the beginning.”Wow, word seems to be coming out that the Obama FBI “SPIED ON THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN WITH AN EMBEDDED INFORMANT.” Andrew McCarthy says, “There’s probably no doubt that they had at least one confidential informant in the campaign.” If so, this is bigger than Watergate!

“The media are all wee-wee'd up (as Barack Obama would say) over Donald Trump's charge that Obama spied on him at Trump Tower. They trotted out old James Clapper, a man who perjured himself before Congress while lying about government spying on the American people, to deny Trump's claim that Obama spied on him. “Does anybody remember former CBS reporter Sharyl Attkisson? BHO's people bugged her computer. “How about when the Justice Department seized Associated Press phone records? According to Mother Jones, a notoriously leftist publication:The tables are now turned on Obama’s telling Tweet, using the words “I spy” at the children’s library. After his fumbling of the spy ball, it’s now:“We spy with our little eye, a rat-fink of a used-to-be president who wouldn’t play by the rules of honesty in trying to get his protégé elected U.S. President.“Federal regulations require that the attorney general personally approve such a move, ensure the request is narrow and necessary, and notify the news organization about the request – in advance whenever possible. In this case, however, the Justice Department seems to have used an indiscriminate vacuum-cleaner approach – seeking information (from phone companies) about a wide range of phone numbers used by AP reporters – and it only notified AP after the fact.“The FBI also seized the records of the Washington Post and New York Times in just as cavalier a fashion. “Wikileaks says the U.S. spied on the French president, and, in point of fact, the NSA is also accused of spying on the presidents of Brazil and Mexico. “In point of fact, the Obama people ran something called the PRISM program in which the National Security Agency spied on Americans in general. “I suppose we are going at this backwards. The question is not if the Obama camp spied on Trump, but rather whom they did not spy on. It got so bad that Obama had to promise the heads of multiple nations he would stop spying on them. “How on God's green earth are we supposed to believe that Obama did not bug Trump Tower when he has bugged everyone else?
