    Barack Obama is such a powerful former President he could investigate and indict future crimes against Chris Collins that happen in Trump's White House.

        He’s also so powerful he could direct Loretta Lynch to get FISA warrants on the Trump campaign without having a FISC hearing.

        Sure, except hearings aren’t held for FISA warrants. Pretty sneaky.

        Lol, of course their are. That’s why @JudicialWatch asked for the transcripts. And there was none.

        Only in rare cases, not as a matter of course. Just do a *smidge* Of research, kay? http://www.fisc.uscourts.gov/sites/default/files/FISC%20Rules%20of%20Procedure.pdf …

        I’ve read FISC hearings are held at all hours of the night. But one can’t be held to spy on a Presidential campaign?

        That’s true. But with a Level 3 FISA warrant they surveilled anyone he was coming into contact with. So, they were spying on the Trump campaign. Candidate 1 was mentioned in a warrant.

        Trump is panicked. His allies are no longer ALLIES. The people who have hid his secrets for decades are talking to Robert Mueller. Trump knows he has NOWHERE to run.

        Yep. His failure to prosecute Bush administration officials and Wall Streeters was part of a long game to lure Trump into a trap, which he set as far back as 2009...

        Yes, good additional point about this deeply troubling @realDonaldTrump tweet. It’s factually bogus too—the Collins insider-trading events occurred AFTER Obama left office.

        In particular, indictment narrative began while Collins was attending Trump-hosted June 2017 congressional picnic on the South Lawn of the White House.
