Adam Schiff Drops A Bombshell By Showing How Trump Knew About Russia Collusion

10. Here we go again, with Mensch's "sources with links to the intelligence community."

This makes no sense. First she says Trump is on "tape" (there is no "tape" any more) calling in to the meeting, then she says Manafort was the source of the "tape" because his phone was legally "hacked" (phones are not "hacked&quot , turning it into a hot mic that recorded the whole meeting. (This is technically possible, but unlikely to have occurred in Trump Tower because it requires the installation of a separate, miniature cell tower or transmission device that signals the phone to look like it's been switched off but it's on, using the microphone. http://money.cnn.com/2014/06/06/technology/security/nsa-turn-on-phone/index.html.)

But how could Manafort be the "source" of the alleged "tape" of his phone, supposedly acquired through a FISA warrant?

Once again, the article contains a lot of speculation and a lot of cloak-and-dagger buzzwords, but if the allegation had any substance it would be on the front page of the New York Times, not in this goofy little hobby blog.
