LawNewz Founder Dan Abrams will host an hour of live legal coverage of the bombshell claims of wiretapping made by President Trump this weekend. You can watch the discussion in the player underway when it gets underway at 12:30 EST. While many are viewing it through a political prism, the questions and issues are often legal as is evidenced by President Trump’s tweets themselves:
Is it legal for a sitting President to be “wire tapping” a race for president prior to an election? Turned down by court earlier. A NEW LOW!

I’d bet a good lawyer could make a great case out of the fact that President Obama was tapping my phones in October, just prior to Election!

Dan, who shared some of his thoughts on Good Morning America this morning, will be joined by several attorneys and experts including LawNewz columnist and attorney Robert Barnes, and national security law expert Bradley Moss.
