    2017 is Watergate in Reverse

    By Gabrielle Seunagal
    March 24, 2017

    For weeks, rumors have circulated that Obama wiretapped Trump Towers during the 2016 campaign. Moreover, reports from the United States Intelligence community indicated that communications from Trump supporters, the Trump administration, and possibly the President himself, were “incidentally collected.” A careful observant cannot help but note the parallels between the current wiretapping scandal and the Watergate scandal occurrence from 1972.

    In 1972, Richard Nixon covered up a series of events which would soon become known as the Watergate Scandal. These events included Nixon wiretapping his political foes and using the FBI, CIA, and IRS to investigate groups and persons whom he viewed in a disfavorable light. Eventually, a plethora of people in Nixon’s administration were arrested for their crimes and Nixon himself was forced to resign. Nearly seventy people in Nixon’s administration were indicted with almost fifty being found guilty of abuse of power.

    The Watergate Scandal is essentially the reverse of Obama wiretapping President Trump. In 1972, President Nixon’s illegal surveillance was exposed by the media; in 2017, the media is concealing Obama’s spying operations, but President Trump is uncovering them. The media has chosen to align themselves with the elitists and the establishment over the past decades. President Trump is a threat to big government, so the media will innately take action against him. Obama was vehemently against the victory of President Trump from the start. He campaigned for Hillary Clinton and stated that a Trump victory would serve as an “insult to his legacy.”

    The drastic media change is quite interesting, yet most unfortunate. 45 years ago, the media exposed the corruption of a President; in current times, the media is so threatened by the Commander in Chief that they have sunk to the level of concealing corruption and deceiving the American people. If it were not for the President (and conservative news outlets), Obama’s wiretapping operations would mostly likely remain as a secret.

    Nixon talked about using the IRS and that is what got him in trouble. He did not actually do it. Obama implemented the use of the IRS to go after his opponents He weaponized all the agencies within his power to illegally eavesdrop and coerce his enemies, Trump and [people affiliated with him. There are significant differences between the two.
    Funny isn't it WAPO and the LSM is calling for Nunes to be investigated for even mentioning Trump was illegally being surveilled.
    The detestable and despicable media continues to ignore this story in hopes that it is forgotten by the people. As we found with the FBI "investigation" of Hillary and her email servers, we are no longer a nation of laws. Obama will return to the US with his trademark smirk on his face and will continue to make mischief from his "shadow government" headquarters. I notice that as a back up Obama has extended his stay in Tahiti just in case things don't work out in his favor.

    Obama is reportedly stay in The Brando in Tahiti for a month, where he is believed to be taking some time out to finally work on his memoirs, for which he and his wife Michelle have reportedly signed a $60-million deal with the Penguin Random House publisher. Incidentally if things go south for Obama regarding the illegal use of the "Intelligence agencies" surveilling American citizens and in particular Trump during the 2016 campaign, Obama will be safe. there's no extradition with the US from the Island.

    I find it extraordinary that Obama haters read opinion pieces by biased writers and believe it's fact. It is amazing how they buy into this crap......I suppose it's because they think it confirms their own twisted beliefs. The notion that Obama personally authorized / ordered wiretaps / surveillance of Trump & Trump tower is, I'm sorry there is no other word for it - insane........

    Your hero (Trump) is a pathological liar, stop believing his tweets.......they are nothing but nonsense.

    The exact same thing can be said for you Trump haters. You believe Obama did no wrong and believe Trump can do nothing right.

    More mad scribblings from the lunatic fringe. They're like Orcs; they never sleep, they're always scheming to wreck something good.

    However, your ilk is prepared to believe unequivocally that Trump colluded with the Russians, while the opposite is true. For eight years Obama and Hillary colluded to give Putin and the Russians whatever they asked for including the pull out of anti-missiles from Poland, control of the Crimea and an American Uranium mine.

    Nope, I'm waiting for the evidence. In other words I cannot believe there was any collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russians until it is proved. As for Obama & Ms. Clinton giving Putin anything, you must be kidding. Putin absolutely hates Ms. Clinton for her words against him, particularly in past elections. Please, stop with the Clinton / uranium nonsense, it's embarrassing.......

    Not according Tony Shaffer and the evidence is coming soon. You should be more horrified at what the former Administration was doing as opposed to taking a political stance or throwing out nonsensical statements.

    These are actual crimes at the highest levels. It's gone too far and people have to be brought justice. This is bigger than Watergate.

    We're finding just how bad things became with 8 years Obama.

    If Hillary was elected she probably would've continued the police state tactics.

    Cash Flowed to Clinton Foundation Amid Russian Uranium Deal
    By JO BECKER and MIKE McINTIRE
    APRIL 23, 2015

    Continue reading the main story

    The headline on the website Pravda trumpeted President Vladimir V. Putin’s latest coup, its nationalistic fervor recalling an era when its precursor served as the official mouthpiece of the Kremlin: “Russian Nuclear Energy Conquers the World.”
    The article, in January 2013, detailed how the Russian atomic energy agency, Rosatom, had taken over a Canadian company with uranium-mining stakes stretching from Central Asia to the American West. The deal made Rosatom one of the world’s largest uranium producers and brought Mr. Putin closer to his goal of controlling much of the global uranium supply chain.
    But the untold story behind that story is one that involves not just the Russian president, but also a former American president and a woman who would like to be the next one.

    If you listen to AM talk radio or read Breitbart it becomes abundantly clea where these trained monkeys get their ideas.

    They never admitted to anything. They still blame losing the election on the Russians. Obama still supports Obama care and hasn't admitted it is about to fail totally.

    Obama never admitted making a mistake? You sure about that? Google Obama Libya......as for Clinton blaming the loss on the Russians, are you saying the Russians didn't meddle in the election? If you are, you are in direct contradiction of US FBI & other intelligence agencies.....

    As for Clinton supporting Obamacare, it seems a slim majority of Americans support Obamacare while only about 17% of them supported the now departed Trumpcare........I'd say Clinton was on the side of the majority.
