Many of these are not exact quotes. They're as close as I could get them on a first pass-through. If there are quotes around a statement, that means it's closer to being an exact quote; no quotes means it's closer to a paraphrase. 1. "I briefed the president on the concerns I had concerning the incidental collection of data." 2. The reports I was able to see did not have anything to do with the Russian ties investigation. 3. Reporter gets huffy and demands to know why he is briefing the president about this matter, as the reporter thinks Trump is a criminal and should not be told about the Legal Noose tightening around his gangster neck. 4. He answers that the reason is that from what he saw, the surveillance had nothing to do with the Russian investigation. 5. "Brings up a lot of concerns about whether things were properly minimized or not" (minimized = masking/redacting names of US citizens before disseminating) 6. "What I've read bothers me, and it should bother the President himself and his team, because some of it seems inappropiate." 7. "It definitely goes beyond General Flynn." "We don't know how [that name] was picked up [collected, intercepted]." 8. "So far the FBI has not told us if they're going to respond to our March 15th [request for additional information]." 9. "What I've read seems to me to be some level of surveillance activity, perhaps legal, but I don't know if it's right and I don't know if the American people would be comfortable with [it.]" 10. Press continues attempting to Save Obama by focusing relentlessly on whether there was a physical wiretap of physical phone lines. 11. Asked if Obama ordered the surveillance, he says only "we don't know" who was responsible for "the taskings." (Which I take to mean the orders to survey.) 12. Intelligence reports were scattered across "a whole bunch of other agencies" 13. "I was only able to see a few dozen" of the intel reports. Some do have some foreign intelligence value -- implied, some don't. 14. "I think the president is concerned -- and he should be." 15. Again, a reporter digs down on "wiretap," trying to justify the Trump Lies article he's already pre-written in his brain. 16. Asked if he can rule out the possibility that "senior Obama officials were involved in this," he says "No, we cannot." 17. Nunes says that the monitoring is itself less of the issue (he seems to think this was permissible, or could be argued to be permissible), but the unmasking of names in intel reports is what he finds concerning. 18. "Yes," he says, when asked if actual Trump team communications are included in the intelligence reports. 19. Who brought him the information? "Well I can tell you this -- we've been asking people to come forward, and they came through through the proper procedures" (i.e., in comportment with whistleblower statutes, I think he means) 20. He thinks it was legal collection, but then possibly illegal dissemination. I thnk he's also suggesting that given that most of the intercepted communications have no foreign intelligence value, our foreign intelligence collection agencies should not have been typing them up, analyzing them, and then disseminating them -- what our our foreign spy agencies doing spying on US citizens? Or typing up the "incidentally intercepted" conversations of US citizens, if those conversations have no foreign intelligence value? Are they spying on foreign threats -- or against political opponents? Note all those questions are not quotes; they're what I think Nunes is getting at. 21. Was it information monitored in real time, or was it captured, stored, then sifted through later? He says it happened "pretty quickly," i.e., near real time. 22. Press: "Are you attempting to give the president cover for his wiretapping claim?" Of course they ask this. He answers that many documents do not seem to rise to having any foreign intelligence value, which makes him wonder why US citizens were unmasked in the reports. 23. Says he can't get into the issues here too specifically, but suggests people look into the "incidental collection" of data on Congress last year, because that case is similar to this one. Update: When asked if he feels "vindicated" by what Nunes has told him, Trump says "I somewhat do, I very much appreciate they found what they did."Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

Onca again, in his tweet Trump put wiretapped in quotes. He meant surveilled or spied upon.
MSM reporters are being willfully blind to this, obviously, so that they can keep spinning it as Trump lied about President Precious, instead of the Obamans are sneaky diabolical shits. The unmasking and dissemination are killer facts. It shows that it wasn't accidental or incidental, but purposeful. Posted by: Ignoramus at March 22, 2017 03:39 PM (SIY7D) 119
here's the analogy for "incidentally intercepted" comms of trump team. It's like when you start dating a girl and she turns around to change her shirt and you incidentally watch her boobs through her reflection in a mirror she's not aware of.
you know, you're not at the "I get to start at you naked stage but the 'tee hee, turn around, silly' phase" Posted by: Joe Inaugurating 45 in DC at March 22, 2017 03:40 PM (55//3) Posted by: Mortimer, FINISH HER! at March 22, 2017 03:40 PM (KakCb) 121
"The reports I was able to see did not have anything to do with the Russian ties investigation."
"Yes," he says, when asked if actual Trump team communications are included in the intelligence reports. ........ He thinks it was legal collection, but then possibly illegal dissemination. Was it information monitored in real time, or was it captured, stored, then sifted through later? He says it happened "pretty quickly," i.e., near real time. Press: "Are you attempting to give the president cover for his wiretapping claim?" Of course they ask this. He answers that many documents do not seem to rise to having any foreign intelligence value, which makes him wonder why US citizens were unmasked in the reports. WTF?! So Obama was "legally" wiretapping or surveilling or collecting communications information from ( however, you want to slice it semantically - but surveilling it definitely is) members of the Trump transition team (i.e Trump Campaign affiliated people) and this surveillance had NOTHING to do with "Russia ties" (not surprising since there are none). And we are now supposed to believe that this is all A-OK - totes fine - and was only "incidental" and ONLY commenced after the election. Mmm hmmm? Sure. The Obama admin just happened to be surveilling Trump people after the election - just accidentally, just simply slipped right into their computer files. Mmm hmmm. Perefectly reasonable - nothing to see here - move along back to that "Manafort did some work for the Russian President in 2005" story again - cause RUSSIA, Trump iligitm`t! Eleventy!

How many bytes of data and lines of print have been devoted to speculation about the possibility that Trump was under investigation for something?

It is clear the Obama regime monitored and disseminated information from the trump campaign. It is likely none of it was technically illegal. What can be done in response? Force them to put up or shut up. Their goal is death by 1,000 papercuts. No actual evidence of malfeasance will be produced, but they'll continue pushing "troubling reports" to their buddies in the MSM, demanding investigations, and claiming Trump shouldn't be allowed to enact his agenda while under a cloud of suspicion. Trump just has to ignore them and push ahead with his agenda. That's what will make or break him, not the expected political witch hunt from the Dems and media.

What I don't get is, why does Trump and his surrogates, spokespeople, etc basically have nothing to show and draw this out without answers? I know one answer is "to give the people enough rope" but after a certain point with all of this unanswered and your FBI Director basically calling you a liar, how about showing what you have and heads start rolling?

If it really was Abu Azzadeen, the UKL govt has some serious 'splainin' to do. That guy was already infamous and even I have long known about him for years as one of the unapologetically outspoken Islamic "preachers" who spend all day calling for the death of England and the triumph of Islam. They've thrown him in jail a couple times for inciting terrorism, but they always let him out after a very short time.

The only actual news I've seen relating to this surveillance story is ex-CIA head Michael Hayden on CNN claiming the unmasking of Americans caught up in incidental collection is actually legal and routine. He had an anecdote about John Bolton asking for exactly that, and it was the Dems who were needlessly rending garments over something totally above board.
That certainly doesn't tack with the stories about Obama changing intelligence sharing rules as he went out the door, and I trust any CIA talking head as far as I can throw them, so I'm skeptical.

One thing that doesn't happen is the release of sensitive information in the middle of an ongoing investigation. It's very possible that Trump was shown stuff and asked not to provide the evidence until the investigation is completed. The goal here is not to prove Trump was spied on although that is important.

wanted to see what Larry Johnson had to say about this and his website is down. He is former CIA who was blogging about the coup attempt since before Trump was inaugurated. Very anti-Clinton.

Rest assured, I will be suing media outlets that falsely named me as the Parliament attacker. This is a gross example of character assassination. While I fully support the attack, I couldn't possibly have committed it, as I'm still in jail!

I've said this for awhile. The big Known Unknown is if the Trumpsters can identify specific leakers of classified information in order to indict them. If you can, this is an easy conviction because you don't have to prove motive, just that they did leak.

Posted by: Maritime at March 22, 2017 04:32 PM (9cYRJ) Union leadership in Philly has their own one hour radio talk show. The boss of all bosses said straight up that his members give no fooks about the Russia story. All they care about are jobs and health care.

About "incidental collection" of data. From WaPo in 2014.
http://tinyurl.com/lxcsrup "U.S. communications increasingly travel across U.S. borders --- or are stored beyond them. For example, the Google and Yahoo e-mail systems rely on networks of "mirror" servers located throughout the world. An e-mail from New York to New Jersey is likely to wind up on servers in Brazil, Japan and Britain. The same is true for most purely domestic communications. Executive Order 12333 contains nothing to prevent the NSA from collecting and storing all such communications --- content as well as metadata --- provided that such collection occurs outside the United States in the course of a lawful foreign intelligence investigation. No warrant or court approval is required, and such collection never need be reported to Congress." Posted by: geoffb5 at March 22, 2017 04:52 PM (d3wbb) 415
NSA's incidentals.
"... NSA's upstream collection -- the latter of which pulls communications directly from domestic internet backbones. The upstream collection has no targets. Instead, it grabs everything it can (including audio communications) it can and sorts through it for targeted terms, as well as anything related to the targeted terms NSA analysts add to the filter. http://tinyurl.com/mfwtsnq Posted by: geoffb5 at March 22, 2017 04:58 PM (d3wbb) 416
