Spygate is a conspiracy theory initiated by President Donald Trump in May 2018 that the Obama administration had placed a spy in his 2016 presidential campaign for political purposes.[1][2][3] Trump's first accusation was in a May 17, 2018, tweet[4] in which he quoted Andrew C. McCarthy, who had just appeared on Fox & Friends repeating assertions from his May 12 article for National Review.[5]
Trump made more assertions, without providing evidence, on May 18[6][5] and May 22–23, 2018, adding that it was done in an effort to help Trump's rival, Hillary Clinton, win the general election. He said this spy, later identified as Professor Stefan Halper, was paid a "massive amount of money" for doing so.[7][8] In the middle and second half of 2016, Professor Stefan Halper, a longtime confidential source for U.S. intelligence, began working as a secret informant for the FBI, targeting three Trump campaign advisers separately in a covert effort to investigate suspected Russian interference in the 2016 United States elections. However, as of May 2018, the Trump administration had produced no evidence that Halper had actually joined the Trump campaign or that the predication for his surveillance of the campaign was improper.[9]
On June 5, 2018, Trump further alleged that a counterintelligence operation into the Trump campaign had been running since December 2015.[10] The House Intelligence Committee, then in Republican control, concluded in an April 2018 report that the FBI counterintelligence investigation of the Trump campaign did not begin until late July 2016, while the February 2018 Nunes memo written by Republican aides reached the same conclusion, as did the February 2018 rebuttal memo by committee Democrats.[11][12][13] Whether the use of the FISA warrant, which permits investigators to collect archived communications well prior to the issuance of the warrant, includes the December 2015 date remains partially classified.
