For the Record: For the Win

Weird result of searching for an image of Planē, Goddess of Error: John Collier, Clytemnestra After the Murder, 1882, from mollyoyo's Pinterest.

1. Obama admin didn't wiretap anyone in Trump campaign. They used section 702 surveillance.
2. They didn't surveil the candidate, only ppl in campaign caught directly conspiring with surveilled foreign persons; maybe Manafort, Page, certainly Flynn.

Not 702, that's a serious error—702 and Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court are used only for the surveillance of non-US persons; warrants on Page and Manafort (issued in 2014) and Flynn would be under section 1803 of FISA under the jurisdiction of a seven-judge panel appointed by the Chief Justice.

5. It's hardly likely Obama "did" any of this. He had a great staff capable of acting on this important stuff on their own. I suppose they kept him informed.

Five gross errors in 23 words! Are you shooting for a record?
