The Committee held a hearing in connection with the statement of trump, accusing the previous government in tapping phones of his election headquarters in new York’s Trump Tower skyscraper. “We, based on the information we have, we do not see indications that the Trump Tower was the subject of surveillance any government before or after voting day in 2016,” — an excerpt from a document of the Agency.

This was done once in early March, trump in his Twitter wrote that the Obama administration at the end of October 2016 allegedly wiretapped the phone in the Trump Tower. However, no evidence he had not.
The representative of Barack Obama Kevin Lewis denied the charges.
