Intel agencies secretly monitored conversations of members of Congress while the Obama administration negotiated the Iran nuclear deal.

In 2014, the CIA got caught spying on Senate Intelligence Committee staffers, though CIA Director John Brennan had explicitly denied that.

There were also wiretaps on then-Congressman Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio) in 2011 under Obama. The same happened under President George W. Bush to former Congresswoman Jane Harman (D-Calif.).

Journalists have been targeted, too. This internal email, exposed by WikiLeaks, should give everyone chills. It did me.

Dated Sept. 21, 2010, the “global intelligence” firm Stratfor wrote:

[John] Brennan [then an Obama Homeland Security adviser] is behind the witch hunts of investigative journalists learning information from inside the beltway sources.

Note – There is specific tasker from the WH to go after anyone printing materials negative to the Obama agenda (oh my.) Even the FBI is shocked. The Wonder Boys must be in meltdown mode…

The government subsequently got caught monitoring journalists at Fox News, The Associated Press, and, as I allege in a federal lawsuit, my computers while I worked as an investigative correspondent at CBS News. On Aug. 7, 2013, CBS News publicly announced:

… correspondent Sharyl Attkisson’s computer was hacked by ‘an unauthorized, external, unknown party on multiple occasions,’ confirming Attkisson’s previous revelation of the hacking.

Then, as now, instead of getting the bigger story, some in the news media and quasi-news media published false and misleading narratives pushed by government interests. They implied the computer intrusions were the stuff of vivid imagination, conveniently dismissed forensic evidence from three independent examinations that they didn’t review. All seemed happy enough to let news of the government’s alleged unlawful behavior fade away, rather than get to the bottom of it.

I have spent more than two years litigating against the Department of Justice for the computer intrusions. Forensics have revealed dates, times and methods of some of the illegal activities. The software used was proprietary to a federal intel agency. The intruders deployed a keystroke monitoring program, accessed the CBS News corporate computer system, listened in on my conversations by activating the computer’s microphone and used Skype to exfiltrate files.

just to add to the mix…

the old adage of never ask a question unless you already know the answer…

CRUZ: It is true that other individuals who were not the direct employee of the Democratic nominee for president were prosecuted for that conduct. Let me – let me shift to a different topic.

Director Clapper, you – you also testified that you're not aware of any intercepted communications of any presidential candidates or campaigns, other than the Trump campaign that's been discussed here. Is – is that correct?

CLAPPER: Yes. But that's to my knowledge. But, you know, prior administrations, prior campaigns – they wouldn't have been visible to me. So I – I can't – I can't say…

CRUZ: But – but in 2016, you're not aware any other campaigns or candidates?

CLAPPER: … no.

CRUZ: And, Ms. Yates, same question to you.

YATES: I'm not aware of any interceptions of the Trump campaign.

CRUZ: And are you aware of any intercepted communications of any other candidates or campaigns?

YATES: No.

CRUZ: Okay. Because earlier, when Chairman Graham had asked you that, I – I thought you'd declined to answer. So perhaps I misunderstood that.

YATES: And I may have misunderstood the question. I thought the question I declined to answer was a different one than that. So I'm – I'm glad I got a chance to clear it up.

CRUZ: OK. So you have no information of any interceptions of the Bernie Sanders campaign, Hillary Clinton campaign…

YATES: No.

CRUZ: … or any other candidate…

YATES: No.

CRUZ: … in 2016, or campaigns? YATES: No.

Although specific to 2016, he qualifies the question with or campaigns…

what did Ted know when he asked these questions?

and one last little tidbit to tie back to the "pied piper strategy" previously mentioned

The following are facts that do not appear to be in dispute by anyone who isn’t a card-carrying member of Team Obama:

President Obama weaponized for political purposes the intelligence and law enforcement apparatus of the federal government, including the Department of Justice, Federal Bureau of Investigation, and Central Intelligence Agency.

President Obama spied on Congress.

President Obama spied on journalists.

The following assertions are open for debate but are backed by significant evidence and quickly moving to the indisputable fact column:

President Obama used the weaponized intelligence apparatus to spy on the campaign of Donald Trump in order to benefit President Obama’s chosen successor, Hillary Clinton.

President Obama began spying on the Trump campaign while the Republican primaries were still competitive and before Donald Trump was the presumptive nominee.

Against this background it seems reasonable, albeit uncomfortable, to ask: In addition to spying on the Trump campaign, did President Obama spy on the campaigns of other Republican presidential candidates? After all, if he was willing to spy on one rival campaign why wouldn’t he go ahead and spy on others?

This is a serious question with serious implications if the answer is affirmative. A few weeks or even perhaps a few days ago this would have been a fringe question. Not long ago Senator Rand Paul wondered aloud whether his presidential campaign had been spied on by the Obama team. For the most part, Paul was ridiculed for even bringing up the possibility. However, based on everything we know now about the way President Obama used the DOJ, FBI, CIA and various other agencies for political purposes, this is not only a legitimate but a necessary question.
