That all the time. but its definitely strange for an american to be wiretapped by u.s. law enforcement or intelligence agencies unless there was some court-approved reason for doing that. and that lurks behind all the other drama surrounding flynn. it may also, honestly, be the noncrazy thing lurking behind the presidents repeated assertions that barack obama was tapping his microwave or whatever. whatever you think about the presidents tweets on this subject and the weird statements about it fr...

Listen. >> evidence still remains the same we dont have evidence that that took place. i dont believe in the last week of time with the people we talked to, i dont believe there was an actual tap of trump tower. >> today i see no evidence that supports the claim that president trump made that his predecessor wiretapped he and his associates at trump tower. thats where we have seen no basis for that whatsoever. >> ranking members democrat and republicans and we see no evidence. how much longer ca...

Accused president obama of wiretapping trump tower during the election, they started looking into that, too. now we have this statement. they say, quote, based on the information available to us, we see no indication that trump tower was the subject of surveillance by any element of the u.s. government, either before or after election day 2016. so, this is a remarkably definitive statement. its very short. they dont give us any additional context about what briefings they may have had that led t...

Circling the wagons, absent any evidence is really going to hurt americas credibility and this presidents credibility. you have lindsey graham, the intention committee chairs of both parties saying theres nothing hear. if this was an overly broad charge then it contradicts, and its a mess, i dont know where they go from here other than backing down completely. >> how do you explain press secretary sean spicer saying he is extremely confident that the presidents assertions will be vindicated. how...

This bipartisan investigation can proceed in a bipartisan way if you have one side, chairman basically ruling out a lot of investigation and the other very publicab publicly saying ive seen intelligence and we cant rule that out. its a big deal as this investigation goes forward. >> see if they can keep a semblance of a bipartisan investigation. athena, the white house is under enormous pressure to either refute the wiretap allegations against president obama or provide evidence to back up presi...

Bartnitski v. voper case. larry trooif and i offered on twitter to defend david if anybody comes after him. don in terms of taxes, this is the tip of the iceberg. these taxes are going to come out. it is a national security matter to understand mr. trumps ties, verify them, not just accept his assertions, particularly when people around him made so many false ones about russia but see what hes reported year after year about foreign connections. not just russia, troubling information about financ...

Assertions, technically whparti the people around him have made so many false ones about russia. and its not just russia. weve had a lot of very troubling information about financial benefits, trademarks, very valuable trademarks coming into mr. trump as hes changing his china policy, so we want to see what the tax returns say about financial actions there. >> why are you so sure that his tax returns will be released? you said youre sure theyll come out. >> weve seen this time and again in washi...

Sometimes revisionism isnt so blatant, it was a rewrite. he meant the obama administration may have conducted surveillance during the election of some people including some who may have spoken to people on campaigns or having communications with those campaigns. those are two completely different things. one is false and one is true. but other than the word obama, they have little in common. as with so many of these unfounded charges. 3 million to 5 million illegal votes. the highest murder rate...
