   Radio host Mark Levin spent most of his Thursday evening show
   discussing the alleged scandal surrounding Attorney General Jeff
   Sessions and what he says is the real scandal: A "silent coup" by the
   former Obama administration against President Trump.
   
    "They are not going to stop, I told you that the day after the
   election," Levin urged.
   
    About Sessions' decision to recuse himself from 2016 investigations he
   wondered: "Did Loretta Lynch or Eric Holder ever recuse themselves from
   anything? This is the game they play! It is so pathetic to watch these
   Republicans on Capitol Hill. Not even 24 hours and they're all over the
   TV telling Sessions to recuse himself. Recuse himself from what?"
   
    About Obama's efforts against Trump: "There's a much bigger scandal
   here: We have a prior administration. Barack Obama and his surrogates,
   who are supporting Hillary Clinton and her party, the Democratic Party.
   Who were using the... intelligence activities to surveil members of the
   Trump campaign, and to put that information out in the public. Those
   are police state tactics. Nothing Flynn or Sessions has done is even in
   the same category as that," Levin said.
   
    "The question is: Was Obama surveilling top Trump campaign officials
   during the election?" he asked.
   
    "We absolutely know this is true, the FBI did a preliminary criminal
   investigation based on a potential connection between a server in Trump
   Tower and a couple of Russian banks. That turned out to be a dry hole,
   but one of the most outrageous things I've ever seen... totally
   uncovered by the media. Instead of closing the investigation, the Obama
   administration tried to turn it into a FISA court investigation in June
   [2016]. Apparently the first application they submitted named Trump."
   
    "Even the FISA court said no. There wasn't enough evidence to make out
   probable cause involving Donald Trump," he said. "In the middle of the
   campaign the administration was actively having Trump investigated."
   
   Breitbart's Joel Pollack put together this timeline of the so-called
   "coup" launched by Obama against Trump:
   
     1. June 2016: FISA request. The Obama administration files a request
        with the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISA) to monitor
        communications involving Donald Trump and several advisers. The
        request, uncharacteristically, is denied.
     
      2. July: Russia joke. Wikileaks releases emails from the Democratic
        National Committee that show an effort to prevent Sen. Bernie Sanders
        (I-VT) from winning the presidential nomination. In a press conference,
        Donald Trump refers to Hillary Clinton's own missing emails, joking:
        "Russia, if you're listening, I hope you're able to find the 30,000
        e-mails that are missing." That remark becomes the basis for
        accusations by Clinton and the media that Trump invited further hacking.
     
      3. October: Podesta emails. In October, Wikileaks releases the emails
        of Clinton campaign chair John Podesta, rolling out batches every day
        until the election, creating new mini-scandals. The Clinton campaign
        blames Trump and the Russians.
     
      4. October: FISA request. The Obama administration submits a new,
        narrow request to the FISA court, now focused on a computer server in
        Trump Tower suspected of links to Russian banks. No evidence is found —
        but the wiretaps continue, ostensibly for national security reasons,
        Andrew McCarthy at National Review later notes. The Obama
        administration is now monitoring an opposing presidential campaign
        using the high-tech surveillance powers of the federal intelligence
        services.
     
      5. January 2017: Buzzfeed/CNN dossier. Buzzfeed releases, and CNN
        reports, a supposed intelligence "dossier" compiled by a foreign former
        spy. It purports to show continuous contact between Russia and the
        Trump campaign, and says that the Russians have compromising
        information about Trump. None of the allegations can be verified and
        some are proven false. Several media outlets claim that they had been
        aware of the dossier for months and that it had been circulating in
        Washington.
     
      6. January: Obama expands NSA sharing. As Michael Walsh later notes,
        and as the New York Times reports, the outgoing Obama administration
        "expanded the power of the National Security Agency to share globally
        intercepted personal communications with the government's 16 other
        intelligence agencies before applying privacy protections." The new
        powers, and reduced protections, could make it easier for intelligence
        on private citizens to be circulated improperly or leaked.
     
      7. January: Times report. The New York Times reports, on the eve of
        Inauguration Day, that several agencies — the Federal Bureau of
        Investigation (FBI), the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), the
        National Security Agency (NSA) and the Treasury Department are
        monitoring several associates of the Trump campaign suspected of
        Russian ties. Other news outlets also report the exisentence of "a
        multiagency working group to coordinate investigations across the
        government," though it is unclear how they found out, since the
        investigations would have been secret and involved classified
        information.
     
      8. February: Mike Flynn scandal. Reports emerge that the FBI
        intercepted a conversation in 2016 between future National Security
        Adviser Michael Flynn — then a private citizen — and Russian Ambassador
        Sergey Kislyak. The intercept supposedly was part of routine spying on
        the ambassador, not monitoring of the Trump campaign. The FBI
        transcripts reportedly show the two discussing Obama's newly-imposed
        sanctions on Russia, though Flynn earlier denied discussing them. Sally
        Yates, whom Trump would later fire as acting Attorney General for
        insubordination, is involved in the investigation. In the end, Flynn
        resigns over having misled Vice President Mike Pence (perhaps
        inadvertently) about the content of the conversation.
       
      9. February: Times claims extensive Russian contacts. The New York
        Times cites "four current and former American officials" in reporting
        that the Trump campaign had "repeated contacts with senior Russian
        intelligence officials. The Trump campaign denies the claims — and the
        Times admits that there is "no evidence" of coordination between the
        campaign and the Russians. The White House and some congressional
        Republicans begin to raise questions about illegal intelligence leaks.
     
      10. March: the Washington Post targets Jeff Sessions. The Washington
        Post reports that Attorney General Jeff Sessions had contact twice with
        the Russian ambassador during the campaign — once at a Heritage
        Foundation event and once at a meeting in Sessions's Senate office. The
        Post suggests that the two meetings contradict Sessions's testimony at
        his confirmation hearings that he had no contacts with the Russians,
        though in context (not presented by the Post) it was clear he meant in
        his capacity as a campaign surrogate, and that he was responding to
        claims in the "dossier" of ongoing contacts. The New York Times, in
        covering the story, adds that the Obama White House "rushed to
        preserve" intelligence related to alleged Russian links with the Trump
        campaign. By "preserve" it really means "disseminate": officials spread
        evidence throughout other government agencies "to leave a clear trail
        of intelligence for government investigators" and perhaps the media as
        well.
