Radio host Mark Levin, who sent President Donald Trump into a rage on Twitter after floating a conspiracy theory about wiretaps ordered by President Barack Obama, admitted on Sunday that he had no concrete proof that the former president was involved.

On his radio show and in a column for Breitbart, Levin called for an investigation into Obamas so-called silent coup against the new president. Without presenting any proof, Levin alleged that Obama personally ordered wiretaps of Trump associates. The evidence is overwhelming, Levin told Fox News host Pete Hegseth on Sunday. This is about the Obama administrations spying.

Levijn repeating the list of sources offered in his [link:http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/03/03/mark-levin-obama-used-police-state-tactics-undermine-trump/Brietbart column] as proof that Obama allegedly ordered the wiretapping of Trumps team. A careful reading of those reports, however, do not back up Levins conspiracy theory.

Donald Trump is being attacked for (the accusations) he tweeted, Levin said. Donald Trump is the victim, his campaign is the victim, his transition team is the victim, his surrogates are the victim. These are police state tactics. When pressed for details on President Obamas personal involvement, Levin replied, Im not Nostradamus here.

24. An incantation that bruits the underlying psyche - beware!

[underpants]

8. Do any of those fake books in his fake library set tell him that Nostradamus predicted the future?

He didn't report on the past.

Aaaand we get the full victim effect

“Donald Trump is being attacked for (the accusations) he tweeted,” Levin said. “Donald Trump is the victim, his campaign is the victim, his transition team is the victim, his surrogates are the victim. These are police state tactics.”

9. Where is nurse Ratched when you need her most?

[BumRushDaShow]

10. "Police state"

You mean your own party's police state since you all are in charge and seemed insistent on "taking charge" by actively violating the Logan Act before and after the election even though none had been sworn in yet?

[C_U_L8R]

11. More like a lyin' Nostra-de-anus

I can't wait for their ship to sink

[Bengus81]

12. WTF?!?!? This $hit was all started by that flaming RW idiot Levin???

[mtngirl47]

22. Yep. Don't it make you feel good that the so-called President gets

his information from Levin, Breitbart, and Fox & Friends!?

Eejit

picture the monster (Peter Boyle) in "Young Frankenstein" grabbing at un-seen flies...

[louis-t]

16. Oh, it was Levin! That nasally, obnoxious asshole.

Ever notice all these assholes have the same, irritating radio voice? Hannity, this guy, another guy from Michigan named Mark that used to be on. Mark Scott, I think.

[TheCowsCameHome]

17. Mark Levin started this? Seriously?

WTF??????????????

That figures.

[eppur_se_muova]

18. "I can't predict the, um, the past." nt

19. this is a really special new kind of crazy we are seeing. Truly sick minds.

[rug]

20. His source is Sprite.

[Sunlei]

29. Americans would be much better off with President Sprite instead of ANY Republican.

[Vinca]

21. One of these days one of these idiots will get us into a war.

"Normal" people don't believe them, but it's fairly clear Dear Leader isn't "normal."

[lillypaddle]

25. Certifiably insane

all of them.

[Charles Bukowski]

26. Levin wasn't asked to make a prediction (Nostradamus' claim to fame), he was

asked to present evidence of Obama's personal involvement.

Conservatives can't even do analogies correctly. Morons.

[Sunlei]

28. FOX & BREIBART MADE IT UP AND FED THE 'idea' TO THE REPUBLICAN'S PRESIDENT.

Why don't the experienced Republicans help their paranoid president? They wanted him as president republicans backed him to be elected, help the man! he needs help.

[RussBLib]

33. bizarre that he only trusts the real fakirs

FOX NEWS, the original fake news, bears a lot of blame for this fiasco

[Sunlei]

53. republicans fox lies has always been an arm of the republican party. trump watches fox daily.

trump is a perfect example of how paranoid people are who watch that RW propaganda. trumps a dumbass birther.

[world wide wally]

32. Shouldn't the bin be just about full with loonies by now?

[LiberalLovinLug]

35. Too late....the deplorables have already filed it away

Added to the long list of criminal activity done by Obama and the Clinton crime family.

And no damn "fake news" network is going to dissuade them from hanging on to this new development that proves their distrust of the black man in the white house.

They have this amazing bubble where any outlandish alternate fact can enter but it can never get back out.

[randr]

36. The whole world is witness to a prime example of Fake News

and the damage it can do.
Live by the sword---die by the sword

[Warpy]

38. It figures it was based on a lie by some right wing radio crank

Honestly, we've got to figure out how to get that idiot out of office sooner rather than later.

[Gothmog]

39. Mark Levin is a liar and a fraud- he has no support for his claims

[Sparky 1]

40. "Gullible's Travels" - the story of Trump

[Hekate]

41. They're still trying to get him killed, aren't they?

I'm going to have to go back to praying for the Obama family's safety.

[truthisfreedom]

42. Nancy Pelosi called it. It's a "wrap-up smear."

http://www.rawstory.com/2017/03/its-a-tool-of-an-authoritarian-nancy-pelosi-rips-trump-for-lying-about-obama-tapping-his-phones/

“It’s called a ‘wrap-up smear,'” she continued. “You make up something then you have the press write about it, then you say ‘everybody is writing about it.’ It’s a charge. It’s a tool of an authoritarian, to just have them talking about what you want them to be talking about. Rather than Russia, we’re talking about President Obama. And then to take it to the Congress and say, ‘Now you investigate this,’ when he’s in favor of Congress of investigating anything but what do the Russians have on Donald Trump, politically, financially or personally.”

[ck4829]

43. Nope, too late, got to investigate it.

We don't want to cover up for the Secret Muslim Kenyan Pretender now, do we?

[BadGimp]

46. PROOF?!?

We don't need no stinkin Proof!

[MissMillie]

47. where is the groper-in-cheif calling this "fake news" (n/t)

.

[tclambert]

48. You're not Noisy Dumbass?

I won't believe that until I see your birth certificate. Long form.

[Nitram]

49. LOL. "I'm not Nostradamus. I just make shit up to get attention."

[Eliot Rosewater]

51. Lesson? Rightwingers, especially radio rightwingers, lie ALL the time, and when

their lies are investigated, we are reminded of this.

Proving they lie constantly has no effect on their minions.

[jzodda]

52. How Odd

Every week living in this country continues to get more strange thanks to this madman President.
