Conway suggests Obama was spying on Trump using microwave ovens.

[RandySF]

ALPINE, N.J. — The White House is offering yet another wrinkle in its attempt to support President Trump’s allegation — unfounded, so far — that his campaign headquarters in Manhattan was wiretapped by the Obama administration. The latest comes from Trump’s senior counselor Kellyanne Conway.

She says the “surveillance” may be broader than even Trump suggested.

In a wide-ranging interview Sunday at her home in Alpine, where she lives with her husband — a possible nominee for U.S. solicitor general — and their four children, Conway, who managed Trump’s presidential campaign before taking the job as one of the president's closest advisers, suggested that the alleged monitoring of activities at Trump’s campaign headquarters at Trump Tower in Manhattan may have involved far more than wiretapping.

“What I can say is there are many ways to surveil each other,” Conway said as the Trump presidency marked its 50th day in office during the weekend. “You can surveil someone through their phones, certainly through their television sets — any number of ways.”

Conway went on to say that the monitoring could be done with “microwaves that turn into cameras,” adding: “We know this is a fact of modern life.”

1. Yea right

Like trump has been anywhere near a microwave oven.

[SkyDaddy7]

63. LOL!!!

I was taught a poem when I was a child...

"What a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive"

...Obviously the TRUMP team were not brought up with anything close to these types of values!

[leftofcool]

2. Come here Kellyanne, I have a microwave just for you.

[PerceptionManagement]

54. 'Microwaves That Turn Into Cameras Just an Alt Fact of Modern Life.'

[calimary]

78. An alternative fact here, an alternative fact there, pretty soon you're talking about real lies.

I'm only surprised that ANYBODY invites her on as an interview guest, on ANY news/information/talk show ANYWHERE, anymore.

She's such incredibly damaged goods by now that it's not even funny anymore.

[IdiotsforPalin]

70. Kelly should stick her head in the microwave and take a selfie.

[Beartracks]

10. No! They can surveil you through tinfoil hats!!1!

You must wear a tinfoil hat OVER your tinfoil hat!!!



=======================

[milestogo]

19. Must keep tinfoil hat out of Microwave Oven

or bad things will happen.

[Beartracks]

24. ROFL

[sheshe2]

6. You mean that they can see

how much popcorn I pop in my microwave ?!!???

Oh noooos! Some one please throw a net over her now so we can measure her for a straightjacket!

[True Dough]

7. Here's something to throw in your microwave, Trumpsters!

Quite apropos, actually.

[Sculpin Beauregard]

8. Why does anyone

Listen to anything that comes out of her mouth? Jeezus.

Hey, can anyone create an app that makes fart noises anytime she speaks? I'd support that. Please, someone, make it so!

[sheshe2]

25. Hahahaha

"Fart Noises" you funny.

Welcome to DU, Sculpin~

[Sculpin Beauregard]

45. Thanks sheshe! :-D

[BlancheSplanchnik]

61. Laffing so hard I'm crying!

I needed a good scatological joke!! 😆😆

[niyad]

80. welcome to du, and thank you for standing with us.

[Elwood P Dowd]

9. Let's start telling all the brainwashed Trump voters that Obama is spying on them

using Obamachips in their microwaves and computers tuned to the same frequency as Fox News appears on their TV. It's called ObamaWare.

[Beartracks]

12. It activates when the TV is tuned to FOX...

... or when their device is running any FOX app.

LOL

======================

[Elwood P Dowd]

15. ObamaWare spying on Fox News. Hearings to start this week on 7 House committies

investigating Obama's use of the massive George Soros backed shadow government hacking campaign.

[Beartracks]

23. They read it here first!!

=======================

[HAB911]

53. Reinforce their paranoia until the vein on their forehead POPS

[Satch59]

11. She's not helping their situation...which is great!

Also, what's with this photo, there's a bizarre photo in a frame of I assume Kellyanne, looking like Norma Desmond...WTF...

[Warren DeMontague]

18. NO WIRE COAT HANGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Beartracks]

21. The photo.... It's from a 2009 calendar...

I guess I didn't realize she was considered one of the "leading ladies" of conservatism, even back then. It's a calendar where they are wearing mink furs.

13. I have one of these.

Great way to keep an eye on the fridge. Of course I have a fridge cam to keep an eye on the microwave. The appliances cannot be trusted.

39. Late at night do you ever hear them kind of beeping at each other?

67. When the ice cubes start rattling, they're up to no good. n/t

[ProudLib72]

14. It is certainly an absurd claim

And tomorrow when tRump doesn't show any evidence for his wiretapping claim, his supporters will turn to Kellyanne's theory for reassurance. "Phones are too obvious! You have to check all the appliances."

[Elwood P Dowd]

16. What about conventional ovens?

Surprised she didn't mention them with their 4 eyes and modern electronic programming capabilities. Obama may have inserted ObamaWare chips in them.

[Warren DeMontague]

17. you laugh, but it explains the tin foil.

[Doreen]

20. I worked at an animal shelter once.

and one of the ladies working there tried to convince us that we were being recorded by tiny recorders outside in the spare cat kennels and therefore should not be talking about personal stuff or making jokes about the government. May I remind you this was an animal shelter and it was in a small town. I say she was nuts. Sounds to me like CONway is also.

[workinclasszero]

22. Reich wingers are really losing it now...don your tin foil Conway

[Kablooie]

26. Yes, so they can watch the nefarious doings of Trump cooking in his kitchen. Bwa-hah-haaah!

[oldtime dfl_er]

27. yea

I'm sure Trumpy uses the microwave all the time.

[Rollo]

37. He may be using it...

To reheat his $28 Taco Bowls and melt the crayolas he uses to style his hair...

[world wide wally]

28. Lock her up

In a soft room

33. I remember that episode of NCIS...

Ziva was missing and Tony told McGee to monitor all of her electronics, INCLUDING HER TOASTER OVEN!!!

I think it was around season 4.

[RealityChik]

34. Thanx for the comic relief and...

the priceless LOL moment. I laughed from here to next Tuesday on that one!

[jmowreader]

35. There's a surefire way to block surveillance from microwave ovens

When I worked for Army Intelligence, we did a research project on the possibility of microwave emanations from a microwave oven penetrating the human skull to extract information from the skull owner's brain, and discovered that it's completely possible. We also studied ways to prevent this from happening.

We found the most effective method was to use low-density polyethylene sheeting of at least 1.0 mil thickness. This material is cheaply and readily available because it's what grocery store-quality garbage bags are made of.

To ensure complete protection from enemy surveillance, simply stick your head in a garbage bag and secure it to your neck with duct tape, ensuring the tape goes all the way around in a continuous band. For maximum protection the bag must not be punctured.

[Rollo]

38. That's the ticket!

Let's all each send a roll of garbage bags to Trump & Co.!

[Blue_Roses]

79. lol...

On second thought: Am I suppose to be laughing...

[fescuerescue]

42. Sounds like she is referencing the "great seal" bug of a US ambassadar in Moscow

This does go back awhile, but the soviets did use Microwave signals (not the oven) to eavesdrop audio. I don't think this applies to video though

46. I use my microwave oven for selfies all the time.

I just hold it in the palm of my hand at arm's length then push the button and it's done. So easy!

[keithbvadu2]

66. Do you use 700 watt black and white or 1100 watt full color?

[Buckeyeblue]

47. In wacko land

People believe that the government has being brain washing us via the microwaves. A women explained all of this to my wife to be and I when we attended a Y2K readiness convention. We laughed our asses off at some of the crazy shit we saw.

But this was a definite message to that crowd.

[Vinca]

48. Don thinks he's putting regular tape on the back of his ties . . . . LOL.

Testing 1-2-3, testing 1-2-3. Can you hear him O?

49. I think what the ghoul was getting at

http://spectrum.ieee.org/tech-talk/semiconductors/optoelectronics/mits-3d-microwave-camera-can-see-through-walls

was this technology but not smart enough to convey her message. Sometimes a little knowledge is worse that none at all. In her case that is the case.

Peace



Just my three cents worth anyway

[MrScorpio]

60. I'm worried about the morons who'll believe her.

FDT.

[smirkymonkey]

62. She's barking mad.

Someone needs to lock her up.

[Honeycombe8]

64. She sounds more idiotic every time I hear her. nt

[JHB]

65. Breaking: Kellyanne reveals her source...

...Meg A. Tron, leader of the Cybertonian government-in-exile. "There's more to microwave ovens than meets the eye."

Even more Breaking: Michael Flynn files retroactively files papers as paid lobbyist for the Decepticons.

[Amaryllis]

68. So I thought this was satire till I went and read the article. Good way to distract from Russia.

Watch this become the media focus. Except Rachel, who seems to be able to keep her eye on the ball.

[drm604]

71. Is she talking about microwave ovens or actual microwaves?

Actual microwaves (the electromagnetic waves used in ovens) apparently can be used for surveillance.

http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/7426757/

But I'm certain that's not what she was talking about, and saying that they turn into cameras would make no sense at all.

[yellowcanine]

72. The Saturday Night Live skits write themselves.......

[ck4829]

73. Wow...

[Laura PourMeADrink]

74. It is so damn clear - they are trying to find out IF they were bugged because they are

scared of what they have said in TT. They want to be 100% sure - no way, no how, did anyone
hear their colluding with Russia.

[LakeArenal]

75. Like he ever gets near a microwave oven...

[crazylikafox]

81. True. I don't think he's ever seen the inside of the kitchen in Trump Tower.

[delisen]

76. They have figured out that Russian microwave ploy that tripped up Trump

Ah, the presidential suite at the Moscow Ritz Carlton. There it sat, so conveniently placed directly across from the emperor-sized bed, the bedroom minibar cabinet in elegant ipe wood trimmed in gold, with the latest model microwave on its upper shelf. He still remembers the very tiny electronic light flashing......flashing.......flashing.

[Merlot]

82. That explains the CIA leak.

I wondered what purpose that would serve.
