5 easy steps that explain just how out-of-bounds Donald Trump's FBI move really is

 

The President of the United States is alleging, with zero evidence, that the FBI secretly planted an informant in his 2016 campaign for the express purpose of spying on him. Sources have told CNN that the confidential source was never embedded in the campaign but rather spoke to Trump advisers like Carter Page and George Papadopoulos, both of whom the Justice Department was concerned could be vulnerable to Russian recruitment efforts.

The President of the United States, via Twitter, demanded that his own Justice Department conduct an investigation to "look into whether or not the FBI/DOJ infiltrated or surveilled the Trump Campaign for Political Purposes - and if any such demands or requests were made by people within the Obama Administration!"

The Justice Department complied with Trump's request almost immediately, releasing a statement directing the department's inspector general to examine the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act process to see if there was any wrongdoing or political motivations for its actions.

Trump met Monday at the White House with the head of the FBI, Christopher Wray, and the deputy Attorney General, Rod Rosenstein. Following that meeting, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders made clear that "based on the meeting with the President, the Department of Justice has asked the Inspector General to expand its current investigation to include any irregularities with the Federal Bureau of Investigation's or the Department of Justice's tactics concerning the Trump Campaign." (The Justice Department had already announced – prior to Monday's meeting – that the IG was looking into potential impropriety. So it's not clear how the Monday meeting was the trigger for that investigation.)

Justice and the FBI have agreed to allow certain congressional leaders to see classified documents related to the confidential source, a capitulation to longstanding requests by the likes of House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R-California). Again, Sanders: "It was also agreed that White House Chief of Staff [John] Kelly will immediately set up a meeting with the FBI, DOJ, and [Director of National Intelligence] together with congressional leaders to review highly classified and other information they have requested."

Here's the short version: Trump demanded the FBI/DOJ look into an idea he had heard about that an informant may have been placed in his campaign as a spy. Numerous knowledgeable sources made clear that the confidential source was a) never embedded in the campaign and b) was part of a counter-intelligence operation aimed at rooting out Russia's attempts to meddle in the 2016 election. The FBI/DOJ comply with Trump's demands – after being told to do so via Twitter and in person by the President.
