New York Times Admits Obama Admin Deployed Multiple Spies Against Trump Campaign In 2016

The New York Times admitted on Thursday that the Obama administration deployed multiple spies against the Trump campaign in 2016, confirming recent comments by Attorney General William Barr that 'spying did occur' during the campaign.

Following months of angry claims by journalists and Democratic operatives that the Obama administration never spied on Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign, The New York Times admitted Thursday that multiple overseas intelligence assets were deployed against associates of the Republican nominee. It is not the first time the Times has revealed widespread spying operations against the campaign.
In addition to noting that long-time informant Stefan Halper was tasked with collecting intelligence on the Trump campaign, the Times story details how a woman was sent overseas under a fake name and occupation to oversee the spy operation. The woman’s real name is not mentioned in the article, though the Times says she went by “Azra Turk” and has a relationship with an unidentified federal intelligence agency.

Isn't that one of those fake news sources we keep hearing the right complaining about?

From the article:

Quote:

The leak that fueled the Thursday NYT bombshell was likely placed in anticipation of the formal release of even more damaging information about how U.S. intelligence and law enforcement agencies potentially abused their authority to punish the government’s political enemies. The article specifically references the forthcoming release of an extensive inspector general review of potential improprieties at the Department of Justice (DOJ).
By leaking the information to the friendliest of friendly reporters, including Michael Schmidt at the Times, the individuals who ran the anti-Trump operation are likely hoping to spin the news in their favor.

Amy Coney Barrett: "I have an agenda to stick to the rule of law"

Quote:

US Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett has evaded questions about her views on key issues on day two of her Senate confirmation hearing.

The conservative judge repeatedly refused to be drawn on abortion, healthcare and LGBTQ rights.

She stated she had "no agenda" and vowed to stick to "the rule of law".

Democrats opposed to her nomination view her as a threat to healthcare reforms passed under former President Barack Obama.

Republicans are seeking to approve her nomination ahead of the presidential election in three weeks.

Not true. She didn't give the answers that Democrats and their media allies wanted to hear.

yes, nothing really going on, opposing party is trying to get a damaging statement out of her and she is answering like every other judicial nominee.

standard washington dance.

If the Dems have nothing stronger than discussing her judicial philosophy, she is probably a lock.

I think Trump will get his pick if not before then after the election.

One scenario you have not anticipated will come from Obama/Biden's closet has not yet been fully explored. The dark secrets of the Obama era will come to light right before the election to sway the voters, that will not even dare go out to the polls in person, to vote for not only President Trump, but for the GOP.

As u crank as stated the democrats are making Biden look silly with the open borders, health care for all, gun control including the rumor (right or wrong) that certain guns will be confiscated,
plus a woman for VP which will work for certain voters, but not for all.

Yes vienna you have not looked at the chess board of the National election in the same way as I have.

May the best man win and I don't mean between you and me

I would not believe this crazy story myself except my prophecy is coming true just three weeks before the election. This is real folks watch it and you wil lthink it's fake news ...

Where's vienna when you need him?

Okay eddie I see no one else wants to comment on this story fake or not, but just for the record (already retweeted by President Trump and covered on CNN by the way). Just for the record let's say it's fake news, but it's not fake prophecy about something is going to happen right before the election that includes dirty secrets of the Obama administration taking Biden down with him.

It's well documented that I said it would happen (without knowing what would happen) and of course we have em2nought saying something would happen too
