CIA and foreign intelligence agencies illegally targeted 26 Trump associates before 2016 Russia collusion claims: report...
Nothing illegal about it and opinion columnist Matt Taibbi just continues with more sensationalist nonsense and lies.
We all know the facts now. And those facts are that there is NO SITUATION where a foreign intelligence agency reports to the CIA or FBI that they got information from within one parties campaign, that they were being fed information by Russians to the impact the election, that the FBI SHOULD NOT OR WOULD NOT open an investigation.
The point is not whether that information ends up true or not, and is that they simply must investigate to determine if it is true or not.
And then once the FBI opened the investigation and started to reach out to the Trump campaign with questions, and everyone in the Trump campaign began lying about their many contacts, the FBI has no choice but to broaden and go deeper.
No is to blame for the investigation but Trump and his lying and the lying of those around them.
