| So the Democrats claim the Obama administration had nothing to do with the surveillance of Donald Trump and his team. | |
| Well, that story and that lie and that myth is now continuing to unravel. | |
| Earlier this month, Evelyn Farkas, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense under Obama, well, she disclosed how she was urging colleagues to gather the intelligence on Donald Trump and his team before he took office. | |
| Speaking to MSNBC, she said it was more actually aimed at telling the Hill people get as much information as you can, get as much intelligence as you can before President Obama leaves the administration. | |
| If the Trump administration found out how we knew what we knew about the Trump staff dealing with Russians, they would try to compromise those sources and methods, meaning we no longer have access to that intelligence. | |
| Something tells me that Evelyn Farkas may want to consult with a good attorney. | |
