Donald Trump stands by phone-tapping claims

Al Jazeera  

President Donald Trump stands by his accusation that the Obama administration tapped his phones during the 2016 presidential campaign, the White House has said, despite three senior legislators rejecting Trump’s claim. “Based on the information available to us, we see no indications that Trump Tower was the subject of surveillance by any element of the United States government either before or after Election Day 2016,” Republican Chairman Richard Burr and Senator Mark Warner, the committee’s Democratic vice chairman, said in a statement. Ryan said: “The point is, the intelligence committees in their continuing, widening, ongoing investigation of all things Russia, got to the bottom – at least so far – with respect to our intelligence community that – that no such wiretap existed.” Trump accused Barack Obama of tapping his phone during the late stages of the campaign, but provided no evidence. In the briefing on Thursday, his press secretary cited unproved media reports that President Obama asked Britain’s signals intelligence agency, GCHQ, to monitor Trump in order to “make sure there were no American fingerprints”.
