Obama Spy Chief Claims Trump Wasn't Wiretapped – But He Has A History Of Misleading Statements
2017-03-06
James Clapper, Obama’s Director of National Intelligence, went on Meet the Press to discuss the charges. He offered a blanket denial that a FISA court order was ever issued against then-nominee Donald Trump.

But here’s what people immediately noticed about Clapper; he can’t be trusted. Clapper previously lied to Congress about NSA spying programs while under oath:

#7  It is of great import to note the consequences of 8 years of Obama allies and senior civil service "burrowing" by political appointees and preferential promotions to create nodes of allies whose allegiance is to a political party not the constitution. This is a serious threat to the stability and confidence of bedrock components of our government. It's cleansing will be rife with charges of racism and fascism. The complicit media will stoke civil unrest not seen since the 60's or perhaps worse. If not cleansed, worse will follow....

#6  Surveillance doesn't necessarily mean wire taps.

It could as Skidmark stated, mean the Feds used some "electronic devices" to monitor the goings on of the Trump campaign and feeding info to Shillary.

Of course, the real issue for the deep state is the vast corruption and pay to play of the Clinton Foundation which touched everything in the Obama administration...Obama had to know what was going on...I mean he probably cashed a few checks.

If this had been an Obama tweet about the Bush administration, the press would have gone slathering nuts to dig up evidence it occurred. The fact they are working so hard to discredit the claim just tells me there is some truth if not a lot of truth to the matter.

Remember "the guilty dog barks first" and the Obama administration and the press are barking like fox hounds on a hunt.

#5  I recall Clapper testifying before Congress and saying the Americans might have unwittingly been spied on.

#4  No wires if they 'lased' the glass.

#3  The word "wiretapped" may be key here. The term 'Electronically Monitored Communications' may be more appropriate.

#2  The fact Clapper has yet to be inidicted for perjury indicates the gravity of the struggle

#1  We have also seen him 'simply not know' yet pontificate due to his role as if he did.
