President Trump and Attorney General Bill Barr have both indicted their belief that then-President Barack Obama abused his official power to have the Trump campaign “spied on” during the 2016 election – a maneuver that perhaps gave rise to the “RussiaGate” investigation.

There are concerns that a FISA warrant used to conduct surveillance on the soon-to-be President may have been authorized based on faulty information from the “Steele Dossier” – an unverified and unverifiable collection of salacious and unsanitary rumors about Donald Trump.
