The press continues to want to protect former President Obama about the issue of the wire tapping that has been asserted by the new President Trump. ABC News' George Stephanopoulos on “Good Morning America" came down on the side of the former President and it was very apparent in his questions to the White House representative. According to various reports in several news outlets from over the past several months about the former president had him wire tapped. Also, with tweets from his former candidate against him in the election Hillary Clinton that showed there was wiretapping going on because she elluded to it on twitter.
Hillary Clinton ✔ @HillaryClinton
Computer scientists have apparently uncovered a covert server linking the Trump Organization to a Russian-based bank.

Hillary’s Tweet and her campaign’s press release point to Hillary having special, inside information about what may have been the subject of the wiretap. Where did Hillary get this information? Why did Hillary feel free to share it on Twitter? Is Hillary’s Tweet divulging confidential, classified information gleaned from an Obama administration wiretap of Trump Tower?

“Today, 23 February 2016 at 00:00 GMT [updated 12:20 GMT], WikiLeaks publishes highly classified documents showing that the US National Security Agency bugged a private climate change strategy meeting; between UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon and German Chancellor Angela Merkel in Berlin; singled out the Chief of Staff of UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) for long term interception targeting his Swiss phone; singled out the Director of the Rules Division of the World Trade Organisation (WTO), Johann Human, and targetted his Swiss phone for long term interception; stole sensitive Italian diplomatic cables detailing how Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu implored Italy’s Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi to help patch up his relationship with US President Barack Obama, who was refusing to talk to Netanyahu; intercepted top EU and Japanese trade ministers discussing their secret strategy and red lines to stop the US “extort[ing]” them at the WTO Doha arounds (the talks subsequently collapsed); explicitly targetted five other top EU economic officials for long term interception, including their French, Austrian and Belgium phone numbers; explicitly targetted the phones of Italy’s ambassador to NATO and other top Italian officials for long term interception; and intercepted details of a critical private meeting between then French president Nicolas Sarkozy, Merkel and Berluscon, where the latter was told the Italian banking system was ready to “pop like a cork.”
Then, the infamous meeting of former President Bill Clinton with DOJ Loretta Lynch.
What else significant happened in June? On June 27 former President Bill Clinton met with Attorney General Loretta Lynch on the tarmac at Sky Harbor airport in Phoenix. The two met privately for 30 minutes.
Several days later, Hilliary Clinton was interviewed by the FBI about her private server and her handling of classified information. Then, on July 5, FBI Director James Comey announced Hillary Clinton would not be indicted.
Speculation ran rampant about the secret Clinton-Lynch tarmac meeting. Conjecture centered around whether Clinton and Lynch negotiated how Hilliary’s FBI interview and the subsequent decision not to indict would roll out. Was there more to that secret tarmac meeting?
Could Attorney General Lynch and Bill Clinton have discussed wiretapping candidate Donald Trump?
But when it comes to the press covering for Mr. Obama and Ms. Clinton it is with strange ethics they hand the questioning over to George Stephanopoulos who worked for former President Bill Clinton. Now what is his motives and what is he hiding himself? Of course the FBI, CIA, NSA and our other intelligence gathering people will deny any involvement in this scheme because they call this plausible deniability.
