Trump calls for investigation of Obama wiretapping his campaign

On the other side of this dispute is a bunch of leftists who believe that the end always justifies the means.

From Fox News:

The White House on Sunday called for congressional investigations into its claims the Obama administration meddled in the 2016 election cycle in an attempt to gather information on then-Republican nominee Donald Trump.

"Reports concerning potentially politically motivated investigations immediately ahead of the 2016 election are very troubling," White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said in the statement.

Who was it that secretly said to Russian President, "Tell Vladimir that after the election I'll have more flexibility?" @foxandfriends

"President Donald J. Trump is requesting that as part of their investigation into Russian activity, the congressional intelligence committees exercise their oversight authority to determine whether executive branch investigative powers were abused in 2016."

The statement follows an explosive allegation Saturday by Trump that former President Barack Obama ordered phones wiretapped at Trump Tower and also states that nobody in the administration "will comment further until such oversight is conducted."
