I hope I don't have any problems next year when I bring my new australian wife over. Oh wait, I have a simple legal process to follow. And in a few years we wish to move to Australia, I'll follow the legal process.
Not that we would, I think she can apply for German citizenship (EU too lol) because of that family left because of nazis thing. Aristocrat, not jew or gypsy since I knew someone would ask.

Trump's tweeted himself in the foot with his "Obama tapped me!" Breitbart baloney.

"If the Feds Did Wiretap Trump Tower, It’s Not Obama Who Should Worry"
Trump’s wiretap claims, then, carry presumably inadvertent implications. First, based on previous reporting and the nature of FISA courts, any wiretaps within Trump Tower would be legal. And they would stem from overwhelming evidence that the Trump campaign, or someone within it, has unsavory ties to Russia or another foreign power. Otherwise, it’s unlikely those wiretaps would exist at all.

If federal authorities did have cause to listen in on Trump Tower, though, and they provided enough evidence for a FISA court to approve the snooping, Obama is not the one who ought to worry.

Perhaps it wasn't Trump who was being tapped - just the people he was calling or who happened to call him.

The kicker is, those wiretaps were leaked to the press through the Obama administration during the campaign. Oh, and nothing was found. Now the legal attention turns to not only who leaked it, but who knew about and authorized it.

Here we go. Now who is sick:
White House calls for investigation into unsubstantiated claims Barack Obama ordered 'wiretap' on Donald Trump


Mr Obama's spokesman has denied the allegations


The White House has called for the US Congress to investigate President Donald Trump's claim Barack Obama ordered Trump Tower to be "wiretapped" during the US election.

In a series of tweets, White House press secretary Sean Spicer called Mr Trump's allegation, for which he has provided no evidence, "very troubling".

He said Mr Trump is requesting Congress examine whether "executive investigative powers were abused" during the 2016 election campaign, as part of an ongoing congressional probe into Russia's influence on the election.

More...
No evidence but still wanting an investigation. Talk about being sick.

Last week Sean Spicer was telling the press that there didn't need to be an investigation to find out what went on between Trump's campaign team and the Kremlin because there was no evidence to justify it, and this week he's telling the press that there should be an investigation into Federal wire-taps at Trump Tower in order to find out what went on.

Go figure.

Obama's guilt is one of those alternative facts!

The Trump puppet master's know that his supporters hate Obama. Better to focus their indignation on Obama than let their curiosity be piqued by stories of possible collusion with foreign powers.
