Man in CrosshairsBy Selwyn Duke

Did the Department of Justice hack the Trump campaign? As the story of possible Obama administration surveillance of the Trump Tower evolves, this has arisen as a distinct possibility.

While dismissed by the Fake News (mainstream) Media as a free-association salvo by a loose-cannon president, Donald Trump’s allegation that Barack Obama monitored communications at his Trump Tower was never too far-fetched.

    Everyone is missing the key part of this “Obama wiretapped Trump campaign”, narrative. The NSA taps everything, no exceptions, everywhere it can. The FISA Court provides legal cover for those who want to look at some particular part of that database by issuing a warrant that, supposedly, authorizes the “search” of the object(s) of the warrant. In fact, the search has actually already been done by NSA. The warrant only authorizes some named part of the IC to look at the data about that person or persons and read or listen to what NSA has already recorded. So, no of course Obama didn’t order that Trump or his campaign be wiretapped; they were already wiretapped as a routine everyday part of NSA’s operations. No one ordered it, the NSA does it 24/7/365, forever. That is what’s wrong with that entire part of our government: a search is already made, the things to be seized have already been seized, the only question is what hidden part of the national bureaucracy gets to look, read, listen (depends on how the seized material is recorded) to what has already been done. That’s the scary part, that’s the part where it’s totally wrong.

    And, in case you didn’t figure this part out, that why there are leaks of classified “tapping” of private communications, because the material was already recorded and is just sitting there – wherever NSA etc stores the products of their illegal evesdropping – and someone from Clapper’s office or Comey’s office or Holder’s office or the White House staff simply looks it up and looks at what the NSA already recorded. That’s how you get weasel answers to straight questions about FISA warrants and wiretapping and all the similar things: no one has to order the wiretapping – whatever the actual method of seizure of the information – because it was already tapped. So there may not be a FISA warrant for any of the information released – in violation of classified documents law and regulations – because no warrant was ever issued, the criminal(s) simply went to wherever the data is stored and read it off or printed it out and gave it to their minions in the media to publicize. Illegal? You bet!!! Anyone going to jail? Not a chance. Consequences? First, every administration after this one will have to watch itself. Second, the legitimacy of government at all levels takes another massive loss of public confidence. Third, widespread genuine violence – a real Civil War II, for those who can’t figure out what I meant – is made that much more likely. And probably more that I’ve not figured out either, all of them bad.
