James O'Keefe and his associates manipulated the telephone system in a federal building, likely intending to bug phones.

Once inside, according to the FBI, they quote, manipulated the telephone system, which led some to believe that their true intention was to bug her phones. You can't do that. You can't. No, you can't. Like, you couldn't come here and manipulate your phone device without us being like, this is a crime. O 'Keefe denied that that's what he was doing, but ultimately it's hard to see what the goal of this stunt would have been. She said her phones were really busy, so they dress up like telephone employees and mess with the phone system to prove the phones aren't receiving a higher call volume? Their actions don't really make a lot of sense in that context, but they make a ton of sense if their goal was to illegally tap her phone.
