Rand Paul Thinks He Was Spied On

Rand is pressing for answers:

Sen. Rand Paul, the former Republican presidential candidate and vocal champion of civil liberties, has received allegations that the Obama administration sought intercepted intelligence from the National Security Agency on him and other members of Congress and has asked President Donald Trump to conduct a formal investigation, Circa has learned.

Paul quietly asked for the probe nearly a month ago in a letter to Trump that was obtained by Circa.

“An anonymous source recently alleged to me that my name, as well as the names of other Members of Congress, were unmasked, queried or both, in intelligence reports of intercepts during the prior administration,” Paul wrote Trump in a letter dated April 10.

“In light of the revelations that the names of persons associated with the Trump campaign were unmasked, I believe the allegations that myself and other elected members of the legislative branch may have also been unmasked or caught in intelligence gathering warrants investigation.”

This is bad, mainly because you don’t deploy only one form of surveillance on a target. If Rand was specifically targeted for a database pull, then he likely had much more intrusion into his life, in many more ways. I’d be surprised if he didn’t have a dedicated team, given Obama and Jarrett’s tendencies and attitudes toward libertarianism. When government starts doing that, it has to be a mile marker on the road to collapse.

My own suspicion is Rand is under immense surveillance, probably by several different entities. I doubt any member of Congress goes anywhere without being picked up and followed by two or three different surveillance operations.

I would assume there is some US Government Deep State, though since those are probably official sworn agents, they probably cloak that as being advance security, or undercover security, and integrate it with his security team. I would suspect major business entities with interests being heard by committees Rand is a part of probably deploy some periodic surveillance, in the form of private investigative firms to follow him around, just in case they could catch him kissing a mistress or slipping a phone number to a nubile young fan. I’m sure there is periodic Democrat Party surveillance in the form of PI’s hired to see what dirt they might stumble into if they followed him, and I’m sure there would be periodic foreign intelligence surveillance as well, for obvious reasons.

I find it hard to believe he doesn’t assume he is under surveillance given what is out there. I mean NSA guys joked about doing sexint, which was running surveillance and database pulls on girlfriends and women they were interested in. Does Rand think nobody in Obama’s administration was pulling data similarly for political gain? Rand is a smart guy, he must know.

Which raises the question, does Rand really asking to find out if he was under surveillance? Is he asking for this data innocently, or is he, like I suspect President Trump was, laying down evidence he can use later to argue that he too was a victim of something nefarious, should it one day be uncovered?

I’m just looking at it from the outside, but it feels like a lot of preemptive ass covering may be going on. It also feels increasingly like our elected leaders are not so much driving the nation’s direction, as they are riding a bucking bronco, and they themselves have no idea what it is doing or where it is going – and they are all preparing for Apocalypses of varying types.

Tell everyone about r/K Theory, because if surveillance is listening to you, you’re telling two for one
