"the FBI used foreign-intelligence-gathering FISA laws to tap the communications of key Trump campaign staff who were in touch with Kremlin officials."

I think you've got your allegations mixed up there Reg.

Dems say FBI were spying on trump staff with links to Kremlin - although the only link published so far that I can find is Trump Jr turning up to a dodgy meeting with a Russian lawyer (who also had links to the dodgy dossier) which now apparently was all set up the Clinton/DNC.

GOP say FBI were spying on Trump himself, authorised by Obama, based on evidence gathered in the dodgy dossier, which has now been widely discredited and may have actually have been commissioned by various bad actors (including the Clintons and McCain) purely for the purpose of being used as evidence to authorise the FISA spying on Trump.
