      PUBLIC Alfa Bank story (on which Mensch hung her "tapping Trump" claim, which was dodgy anyway) was about server in Philly, not Trump Tower.

      .@LouiseMensch Yes. And on the server they agree with me and don't make the egregious error you made which set off Trump. @CNN

      the other original reporting on this suggests the FISA order, if there is one, targeted wider odd financial transactions

      Right. Mensch's confusion was assuming targeting of Alfa bank (+SVB) mean targeting of that server.

      still seems to me the evidence points to probable intercepts of Page, Manafort + one or more of Flynn, Cohen, Stone
