Fox-
he Justice Department on Monday asked lawmakers for more time to gather evidence related to President Trump’s claim that former President Obama ordered wiretaps on Trump Tower’s phones during last year’s presidential campaign.
The House Intelligence Committee said it would give the Justice Department until March 20 to comply.
Current and former administration officials have been unable to provide any evidence of the Obama administration wiretapping Trump Tower, yet the president’s aides have been reluctant to publicly contradict their boss.
On “Fox & Friends” this morning, Judge Andrew Napolitano said that even if the Obama administration did spy on Trump, there may never be a way to prove it.
He explained that the statutes allow the president to order the surveillance of any person in the U.S., without suspicion, probable cause or a warrant, but that would leave “fingerprints.”
In this case, the alleged surveillance was reportedly ordered in a way that left no record, he said.
“Three intelligence sources have informed Fox News that President Obama went outside the chain of command,” Napolitano said. “He didn’t use the NSA, he didn’t use the CIA, he didn’t use the FBI, and he didn’t use the Department of Justice.”
Instead, Napolitano said, Obama used GCHQ, a British intelligence and security organization that has 24-7 access to the NSA database.
“There’s no American fingerprints on this,” Napolitano said. “What happened to the guy who ordered this? Resigned three days after Donald Trump was inaugurated.”

I remember when the Naval Air Systems Command was in Crystal City, VA and the windows on the floor that contained all of the highly classified projects had special devices to prevent outside listening devices, regardless of the spectrum, to protect conversations and data.
The technology today is probably 10 times better on capturing voices, data, etc.
That’s a very good point, Helo Driver.
Plausible deniability, sounds plausible.
The Usurper was very clever, who would ever thinking of checking on a non-US source for intelligence? Somebody did!
A quick and oversimplified version.
1970s to early 80s.
Lasers can be bounced off the glass windows or any hard surface, but the thinner the better.
The reflected beam is then processed with the equivelant of a mic – signal and then converted into an audible freq range.
Basically using the windows as a speaker cone.
A big vibrating dildo taped to inside of the window is / was a very effective countermeasure, in multiple ways.
Just like in the movie Clear and Present Danger. Recording a conversation in a hotel room from another hotel
Time for President Trump to employ the Maxwell Smart “Cone of Silence” for all sensitive communications.
Trump has deep pockets.
Put a bounty on the proof, nail that skinny fucker to the floor, and he and his brood can reside elsewhere in shame
“What happened to the guy who ordered this? Resigned three days after Donald Trump was inaugurated.”
Resigned with extreme prejudice?
Trump probrably had his Elite Tech force investagate beforehand .
If he’s questioning our Agencies allegiances , this is the time to test them.
I don’t know about this. The Brits had to know that this request (wherever it came from) was extremely dangerous in that regardless of whether Trump was elected if proof got out the Brits had spied on a Presidential Candidate there would be hell to pay. The only way out would be if MI6 (or whatever) gathered conclusive, irrefutable proof that Trump was a Manchurian Candidate. Does anyone really think that Putin would take that chance?
However if Congress wanted to be sure then issue a summons to testify to this fellow who resigned. If he tries to take the 5th then give him immunity in exchange for his testimony about who ordered him to ask the Brits. If he refuses to testify then toss him in a supermax until he changes his mind. When he does then work your way up the food chain.
At this point somebody is lying their ass off and it would serve your country well to find out who.
When and who ruled that this is legal and Constitutional —
” Judge Andrew Napolitano said that even if the Obama administration did spy on Trump, there may never be a way to prove it.

And let’s not forget that Obozo gave himself the power of extrajudicial execution of Americans, which he has done…….wait, Trump has that power now..
