This whole “no proof of spying” fake news narrative is idiotic.
We know for a fact that the spooks were spying on Michael Flynn – and that they were doing it to a political end.
Rand Paul said as much to Neil Cavuto on Fox yesterday.
“Everybody admits that somebody spied on Mike Flynn, and he was part of the Trump campaign,” Paul said. “It sounds like what the president said has already been proven to be true.”
He said that the media is confused, because they think that wiretapping means placing an “old-fashioned bug” on someone’s telephone.
“If you haven’t looked recently, most of our telephones don’t have wires,” Paul said. “‘Wiretapping’ is a broad term for surveillance.”
Cavuto said that surveilling Flynn is one thing, but he pressed Paul if Trump himself was tapped.
“I think ‘wiretapping’ to Donald Trump probably meant spying. And I think ‘Donald Trump’ or the ‘campaign’ also probably meant Mike Flynn,” Paul said. “So I think really we’re arguing circles around something that most people are admitting.”
“Somebody was spying on the Trump campaign and … Mike Flynn lost his job because of an illegal felony in which somebody released the results of spying on the Trump campaign.”
They are saying that they just picked up Flynn while wiretapping the Russian ambassador – but then why was it leaked? The fact that it was leaked means that Flynn was targeted which means that the Trump Team was spied on for political purposes.
What are the chances that Flynn was the only person they dropped in on looking for dirt?
Presumably, he’s just the only one whose transcript they leaked, for the precise reason that they could argue “oh well, we just picked this up randomly while spying on the Russians.”
