Trump takes action in response to reports suggesting FBI spied on his campaign

The tweet comes after reports on a man recruited by the FBI to get information from the Trump's camp during the 2016 elections

Newsroom May 21 11:53

President Donald Trump announced on Sunday that he is officially taking action in response to recent reports that have suggested that the FBI spied on his campaign during the 2016 presidential election.

In a tweet, Trump wrote: “I hereby demand, and will do so officially tomorrow, that the Department of Justice look into whether or not the FBI/DOJ infiltrated or surveilled the Trump Campaign for Political Purposes – and if any such demands or requests were made by people within the Obama Administration!”
