      Let's be careful here. Obama spokesperson said that neither Obama nor anyone at the White House ordered any wiretap (surveillance).https://twitter.com/cbsnews/status/838084940248010757 …

      The statement says nothing about whether it happened.

      And, yes, I know that there has been reporting from @LouiseMensch and, later, the Guardian and, since, others on the FISA warrant.

          That's not same as confirmation from exec branch that it's so. Trump seemed to suggest it is so today, esp w "found out" & "the fact" lines.

          There is wiggle room, though. "A good lawyer could make a great case," as one might say, that Trump's tweets aren't statements of fact.

          I know! That's ridiculous! Yet, here we are. They could say he was simply relying on the Breitbart report, not any classified info.

          Indeed, the Obama spokesperson was specific in the language used, never stating a wire tap did not actually occur. Just no Obama order.

          You should read the thread before you comment. That, literally, is my earlier point in the thread.

          I did read your thread and felt it needed more elaboration. Sorry if my comment bothered you.

          Also that reporting said, at most, the warrant covered 4 Trump associates, not Trump himself.

          if the wire tapping was classified, does him tweeting about it declassify it and make that info available per FOIA request?

          she's not really a reliable source tho. Americans who think so should really read up on her history in the U.K. as an MP
