The Russia connection was from the beginning a ruse and the formal investigations by FBI confirm there is no evidence of collusion and no evidence that Russia in any way impacted the outcome of the election. I believe the congressional investigation into the spying on President Trump and his team will reveal that Obama ordered and AG Lynch executed the warrant to spy on Donald Trump and his entire team for political purposes only. Sixteen intelligence agencies should be more than sufficient to secure the national security of the United States of America.
Now that everyone knows the extent of the spying thanks to the WikiLeaks spy dump, once the congressional hearings conclude the drumbeat to dismantle the CIA and create a new intelligence operation to take its place or not will beat long and loud.
When ordered for political purposes only like Obama did, this will be the undoing of FISA, the Patriot Act and the CIA itself once the congressional investigation reveals this came directly from Obama through Lynch. It may be legal but the political fallout for a sitting President to order deep surveillance on a private citizen not involved in criminal activity or not a threat to national security is chilling. This surveillance power began with President Jimmy Carter and continues with President Trump. The process goes through the Attorney General for certification to spy. The FISA law is written to grant all sitting Presidents broad powers to order deep surveillance on anyone they so choose.
President Obama had the authority to order a wiretap or any other deep surveillance to spy on then candidate Donald Trump according to Judge Andrew Napolitano.
