FBI asked Justice Department to reject Trump claim: report
By Rebecca Savransky - 03/05/17 04:44 PM EST
FBI Director James Comey reportedly asked the Justice Department this weekend to publicly reject President Trump's claims that former President Barack Obama wiretapped Trump Tower before the election.
Senior American officials told The New York Times on Sunday that Comey has said the president's wiretapping allegations are not true and asked the Justice Department on Saturday to publicly correct the record.
The report comes after President Trump, in a series of early Saturday tweets, claimed President Obama had ordered the wiretapping of Trump Tower.
The FBI and the DOJ declined to comment to the Times.

"Senior American officials told ..."
That is the problem, no names. I am not going to believe anything about this wiretapping, whether it happened or not, until the Dept. of Justice says they did it or not. A former deputy FBI director just said on Fox that this is the purview of the Justice Dept., and they are the ones who need to address this accusation. He also said he knows there has to be a lot of running around in Washington right now to deal with Trump's accusation. What I do think I know, is, Trump will never stop attacking using twitter. From the time he became a candidate, his tweets kept him in the news every day and that is going to continue for four years and maybe four years after that.

I always thought AG Jeff Sessions to be an 'honorable' man, the next few days will probably shine a big light on my perception of him.

Multiple media outlets reported the FISA order. It either exists, or it doesn't. If they're trying to deny 'wiretapping' by technicality (computer, not phone), that's garbage.

I disagree. Circle gets the square.
