FBI's Comey: 'I have no information' to support Trump's wiretapping tweets FBI Director James Comey on Monday publicly refuted President Donald Trump's claim that the Obama administration wiretapped Trump Tower before the 2016 election, saying neither he nor the Justice Department have evidence to back the president's explosive tweets. "With respect to the president's tweets about alleged wiretapping directed at him by the prior administration, I have no information that supports those tweets. And we have looked carefully inside the FBI. The Department of Justice has asked me to assure you that the answer is the same for the Department of Justice and all its components," Comey testified before the House Intelligence Committee. It marks perhaps the strongest rebuke yet of Trump's allegations, which the bipartisan leaders of both the House and Senate intelligence committees said they have not seen evidence to support. National Security Agency Director Michael Rogers, who also testified Monday, said the U.S. did not ask Britain to spy on Trump. In defending Trump recently, White House press secretary Sean Spicer cited a Fox News analyst who alleged the key ally did so, prompting an angry rebuff from the intelligence agency GCHQ. The White House has defended Trump's tweeted accusations even amid rebuttals from top congressional leaders and a key foreign ally. Despite Comey's public statement on behalf of the FBI and Justice Department, Spicer said that Trump has no plans to back away from the claim and suggested that all information may not yet be available. Trump himself did not back down from the accusation as recently as Friday. "On wiretapping by this past administration, at least we have something in common, perhaps," Trump told German Chancellor Angela Merkel during a joint press conference. The NSA allegedly monitored phone calls involving Merkel and her aides, straining relations with Trump's predecessor, President Barack Obama. Following Comey's rebuttal, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., called on him to "retract his claim immediately." The White House and its allies in recent days have attempted to change the interpretation of Trump's explosive tweets from earlier this month. In four separate statements on Twitter, Trump said he was the target of a wiretap. In two, Trump put quotes around the term, which Spicer said means he may not have meant it literally. Still, in one of those tweets, Trump called it a "fact that President Obama was tapping my phones in October." Spicer argued on Thursday that Trump referred to "broad surveillance," not a physical wiretap. He contended that reporters have focused too much on the president's accusation, which he made without citing evidence, and not statements denying that Trump campaign officials had ties with Russian officials.  Honesty is the best policy. |

Obama was the biggest crook, even bigger than Nixon, to ever be President. Trump is the biggest liar ever and he will be impeached. Trump approval rating is only 37% and still keep dropping lower. Honesty is the best policy.

I trust Obama's integrity over Trump's dishonesty. Obama has already finished his 8 yrs term as 44th U.S. president, why Trump still suspect Obama so much?? How many lies Trump has said?? No president can order to wiretap any civilian?? Only "psycho" can hear and imagine weird accusation that Obama spy on Trump??? I trust Obama didn't use surveillance or any other device to eavesdrop Trump. Obama was a "lame duck" at that time, he didn't need to do those wiretapping Trump. Obama was looking forward to retiring from been an U.S. president and enjoy his life as a civilian again. Talk about that Kelly Ann Conway, she gave free advertisement of Ivanka Trump fashion brand on a TV interview, kneeling on Oval Office sofa tweeting, She also famously coined the term "alternative facts" and referred to a "Bowling Green massacre" -- which never happened -- during an interview, ..... For so many weird acts and talking, we would think that she should face disciplinary action. No, under Trump administration, she not only didn't get disciplinary action, but also her husband got a position appointed by Trump. Gee.  Those weird things just keeping going on in Trump administration. What is our standard? How low can we get?? I am so disappointed. Honesty is the best policy.

I can't forget nor forgive what Trump said "If I stood at 5th Avenue in New York and shot someone, I won't lose a vote". I can't forget nor forgive Trump said "Grab them by the pus*y, you can do anything". I can't forget nor forgive Trump said "Disarm Hillary's bodyguard weapons, see what happened to her"....., and other things. This is the president people voted for U.S. president. Nobody care about his personality, character, attitude, behavior, .... ??? He promoted violence, lewd language, racial discrimination (Obama is a Black), ..... This is the president people voted. OMG. Honesty is the best policy.

t seems to me that Trump has personal vendetta toward Obama. From the birther, religion, to the Affordable Health Care Act (Obama Care), to the crowd sizes comparison in inauguration, now wiretapping accusation. Obama is not Trump campaign opponent, but Trump has to attack him again and again. Trump wants to tarnish Obama's reputation, so Trump used his wide imagination and tweeted "Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my "wires tapped" in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!" 3:35 AM - 4 Mar 2017 "Is it legal for a sitting President to be "wire tapping" a race for president prior to an election? Turned down by court earlier. A NEW LOW!" 3:49 AM - 4 Mar 2017 "I'd bet a good lawyer could make a great case out of the fact that President Obama was tapping my phones in October, just prior to Election!" 3:52 AM - 4 Mar 2017 "How low has President Obama gone to tapp my phones during the very sacred election process. This is Nixon/Watergate. Bad (or sick) guy!" 4:02 AM - 4 Mar 2017 Trump himself is a sick guy, he needs to see a psychiatrist doctor. He tweeted at 3 a.m. in the early morning to accuse Obama wiretapped him. This is lunatic. People elected him to be our president. OMG. Honesty is the best policy.
