Obama Justice Department Obtained Secret Order to Monitor Trump Campaign Adviser in June 2016

The FBI and Justice Department obtained a secret warrant last summer to monitor the communications of an adviser to then-presidential candidate Donald Trump, the Washington Post reported Tuesday.

The secret order allowed the government under the Obama administration to monitor the communications of the adviser, Carter Page, as part of an investigation into potential links between Russia and the Trump administration.

Trump tweeted on March 4 that he had his “wires tapped in Trump Tower” during the campaign, for which critics bashed Trump, arguing that Obama himself could not order such a thing.

But the report validates that the FBI and Justice Department under the Obama administration were indeed monitoring an associate of the Trump campaign.

After 9/11, there was pervasive electronic scrutiny, and certainly some entity such as the NSA would take note of every national political candidate.

Secondly, the Left was taking refuge in the notion that wiretapping was not done when, if you think of physically tapping a wire, that probably has not been done anywhere since the 1950s.

Months ago, numerous sources were talking about FISA warrants having been obtained to surveil Trump and his associates after he got the nomination in July.

Loretta Lynch was intensely partisan. If she was not a race-baiter, then it would be fair to label her a racial campaigner. Nobody would believe Lynch was anything but a Left Wing partisan with a racial axe to grind.
