That Obama was aware of at least part of the spying is clear following the revelations about the 5/1/17 White House confab.
Whether there'll ever be sufficient evidence to pin this in whole or part on Obama is doubtful. The Deep State and the mainstream media look after their own and the wagons are already circled. That's not to say that Burr/Durham won't unearth a Liddy type who might be prepared to tell it all rather than suffer a long jail sentence. But such a person would have to ponder whether they'd want to become another Epstein.
Why they went after Flynn still intrigues me. We know he was primed to pull the whole Iran deal apart - perhaps there's still more corruption there to be unwound.
But I'd prefer to await the results of the Burr/Durham investigations. Purportedly there is much more to come from that quarter although, unlike the Mueller 'probe', very little has been leaked.
After all that, its really quite amusing to watch those who fell hook, line and sinker for the Russian election interference story as well as the Trump as Putin's puppet trope and the Burisma rubbish, based, it has to be said, on minimal and, ultimately, zero evidence, suddenly now decide that unless there's a smoking gun there's nothing to see.
Hypocrisy abounds.
