In reply to the discussion: Nunes just revealed IC collected info about Trump & Americans associated w/ the Trump transition [View all]NWCorona
(8,541 posts)58. If true, I'm gonna go out on a limb and put my two cents in and say that this
Is National Security logs that were queried and shared. You can just enter a name and everything comes up. That would cover the "incidental" and there would be no warrant needed. It would also explain the IC head's testimony on Monday.
We need to see some receipts.
Edit: Nunes just said that this info was taken from multiple unrelated fisa warrants anD then put into intelligence reports.
