In 2013, Clapper said there was no data collection "wittingly," but apparently millions of Americans had their info collected.

After Trump tweeted that he had been wiretapped, Clapper said on March 5, 2017 that neither Trump nor his campaign had been wiretapped.

On March 20, 2017, Comey agreed.

Now, Sara Carter's research has been proven correct and it is known that apparently Manafort was wiretapped before and after the election, and that the FISA info was also correct.

What a sad day for CNN, for Clapper, and for any American citizen who wants to believe that intel is not abused for political reasons.

So what are you telling us Johnnie? That the politically connected elite should not be criminally investigated because it will ruin their political careers?

Trump claims that he was wiretapped...however he has no evidence to prove it...less he shows up with the FBI search warrants. Not to mention the fact that Trump lied about recording his conversations with Comey...

Somebody explain this to Elkindoofus.
His blinding stupidity gives me a headache.

Trump knew the system was rigged and the whole Obama Admin was out to keep him from beating Hillary, but they still lost. Trump needs to drain the White House of ALL Obama left overs, every single one of them. When Trump said his campaign was wire tapped, he wasn't guessing he knew and the whole Obama Admin up to Obama lied when they said there were no wire taps, now we learn they did have wire taps. Never has there been such wide spread abuse of power and deceit.

Elkie, what I'm telling you is that NO POLITICAL PARTY IN POWER SHOULD ABUSE INTEL FOR POLITICAL PURPOSES.

NO PARTY.

If Repubs had been in power and abused intel this way, Dems would (and should) scream bloody murder.

[Clownkicker]

I guess we'll have our chance to witness abuse of power with the next Presidential election, won't we, johnny?

And will a single Republican get upset about it then? Of course not.
johnny will be here making excuses for Trump even then.

You are completely wrong.

I was glad Nixon faced consequences for his lies, and if any Repub president absuses the IRS or the FBI (as Obama apparently did), you will find me at the forefront of those noting it.

What the Obama Administration did with unmasking, with the IRS targeting, was disgraceful.

Wiretapping Trump before and after inauguration was the Left's attempt to derail him.
