Dan Coats, the director of national intelligence just called Trump a lying sack of ѕhit under oath

Trump accused the Obama administration of illegally targeting his campaign for surveillance under the act, but Coats stated flatly that had never happened

“In the nearly 10 years since Congress enacted the (Freedom Act), there have been no instances of intentional violations of Section 702,” Coats said. “I’d like to repeat that: In the nearly 10 years since Congress enacted the amendments to the Freedom Act, the act that established the FISA, there have been no instances of intentional violations of Section 702.”

He could tell the truth and not get fired or hauled up for scorn on Twitter since Drumpf will have no idea what he actually said. The question is, will anyone tell him?
