#1 I'm running out of popcorn on this one. First there were no wire taps, then there was. Trump was right? Who leaked it to Trump? To CNN? Who signed the FISA? Rice? Is she in contempt for denying it to congress? Oh how this will make a great movie, it can run with days of our lives...

#3 From VRWC's posting above:

12. "Why did Attorney General Jeff Sessions say there was no basis for Trump’s tweet when it seems clear that in fact someone as senior as Manafort, working and operating within Trump Tower, was indeed wiretapped? It is possible he was being literal and specific. But if this wiretap did indeed pick up conversations with Trump, how did Sessions not know about it? Was his recusal part of that? Did it end prior to his confirmation?"

Perhaps 'U.S. Intelligence didn't conduct the alleged electronic surveillance? Would it be too big a leap to assume Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak was also being monitored by other intelligence services ?

Would shared production (and incidental collection) from a fellow 'Five Eyes' member be a method in which cumbersome U.S. privacy laws could be circumvented ?
