Did you watch the video? Of course Obama told him to - StaleyTiger MU - 10/8 14:05:18

The right-wing echo chamber is amazing. I'm pretty sure - BigSlickTiger MU - 10/8 14:15:08

yeah, I'm trying to figure out what the outrage here is - ashtray UF - 10/8 14:07:29

For the longest time they denied spying on the Trump - Sal MU

The Attorney General stated in testimony it was happening - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 10/8 14:34:54

He doesn't appear to have any context to anything - Sal MU
