Two Senate committees are expanding their investigations into the Obama-era scandal that involved surveilling members of the Trump campaign, which Attorney General William Barr has said amounts to “spying,” saying that they have reason to believe that they are becoming increasingly concerned that the surveillance started before the FBI’s “Crossfire Hurricane” investigation.
Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Chairman Ron Johnson and Finance Committee Chairman Charles Grassley wrote a letter to Acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell asking for the declassification of “additional information related to the unmasking of Americans around the time of the 2016 election, but also to expand the scope of our request to include information as early as January 2016.”
“Based on our investigation and recent press reports, we are increasingly concerned that the surveillance of U.S. persons affiliated with the Trump campaign began earlier than the opening of the FBI’s Crossfire Hurricane investigation in late July 2016,” the letter continued.

Be real. Surveillance began the moment Obama set foot in the White House.
CLEAN HOUSE NOW!!!
It started the day Trump came down that New York escalator. That's when I started to believe in the American way. Thank God for Trump.
.
NOTHING will happen and NO ONE is getting arrested or jailed.
I wish they would just stop all of these "expanding investigations" (said breathlessly whenever possible, to make it SOUND like SOMEONE is in trouble).
I'm really getting tired of all this "this time, we're gonna get 'em!!"
hype.
I think they just want to pad the pockets of their friends (who do the investigations) and keep Americans angry and divided.
If Obama can give drug dealers automatic weapons and one is used to kill a federal agent, if Hillary can set up a private server in her bathroom and put top secret stuff on it, and if she can destroy evidence like she did, and officials in the FBI, CIA, DIA, IRS, and DHS can use their power to spy on and attempt to derail a Presidential election (!!), and NO ONE GOES TO JAIL, well, you are absolutely dreaming if you think THIS TIME, there will be punishment for the political and wealthy elite.
It's ALL BS. All of them are protected by Two Sets of Laws.
Jail is for "we, the people" so we don't get too uppity.
Keep cheering, you total dingbat goofs.
