Donald Trump Claims Former President Obama Wired His Phone Lines !! 

BHR Hollywood Reports.........This morning (March 4) the president tweeted out a previously held belief, with no evidence to back it up, that Barack Obama and his administration wiretapped his office in Trump Tower prior to the election.

“Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my ‘wires tapped’ in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!” Trump wrote, and followed up with, “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!”

For the past two weeks, slowly but surely, more and more damaging evidence has been coming out about the Trump, administration's connections to Russia.

Late this past week, the most damning bit of information yet was reported.

 It appears that Jeff Sessions lied under oath during his confirmation hearing to become Attorney General when he said he had no contact with Russia during the campaign, when in fact he reportedly met with Russia's ambassador to the US twice, including while in Cleveland for the Republican National Convention.

 This led many to call (and continue to call) for Sessions' resignation. That shoe has not dropped, but Sessions did recuse himself from the ongoing investigation into the Trump campaign's ties to Russia.

This reportedly infuriated Donald Trump.

It has now been over 24 hours, and Donald Trump has offered not a stitch of proof of anything that he said. The White House for their part issued a statement calling on Congress to investigate the President's (totally unfounded) claims, but not before saying that The White House and the President wouldn't comment further.

A spokesperson for the 44th president called Trump’s most recent cockamamy story a complete falsehood.

"A cardinal rule of the Obama administration was that no White House official ever interfered with any independent investigation led by the Department of Justice," Kevin Lewis said in a statement. "As part of that practice, neither President Obama nor any White House official ever ordered surveillance on any US citizen. Any suggestion otherwise is simply false."

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!

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!

How low has President Obama gone to tapp my phones during the very sacred election process. This is Nixon/Watergate. Bad (or sick) guy!
