NPR FACT CHECK: No, Clapper Has Not 'Admitted That There Was Spying' On Trump Campaign:
Clapper said they were spying on what the Russians were doing.
Eh? The contents of your linked story say the opposite to your summary. It quotes Clapper saying that as far as he was aware they only sent one person to 'spy'.
we know from other sources that the spying began before the official investigation!
Here you have Obama's Director of National Intelligence bluntly admitting to potentially criminal acts
To get from that, to criminal, you've got to invent some sort of crime (other than the crimes that the Trump team was conspiring to commit with the Russians).
As I asked previously, suppose we found out in 2020 that Trump had planted spies inside the campaign of his Democrat challenger
So far from the right-wing conspiracy theorists trying to counter the Mueller investigation we've had:
- The "unmasking" conspiracy.
- The "wiretapping" plot.
- Nunes' midnight rush to show the president a crucial document.
- The "release the memo" controversy.
- Nunes' memo itself.
And now:
- "Spygate".
None of them have had any merit.
