The Hill: Former CIA official on FBI's 2016 actions: 'I'd call that spying'
The FBI's reported attempt to obtain information under false pretenses from former Trump campaign operative George Papadopoulos in 2016 constitutes spying, former CIA counter-intelligence chief James Olson told Hill.TV in an interview Monday.
"It does sound like spying," Olson said, adding that "spying can take many different forms and the art of spying has evolved."
He went on to say that "the old fashioned ways of misrepresenting yourselves or approaching someone under false pretenses is still kind of the tried and true -- that sounds like what happened here."

blah blah blah
question is simple: did they or did they not (the FBI) have authorization from FISA to do what they have done, call it whatever name you will. FISA allows such things. That makes it legal.
So squirrel, you're saying that Clapper the ex director of the DNI is either lying or is incompetent. Can you inform us which it is?
I love it, via dem leadership were arguing semantics!! LOL
Any policy ideas, oh other then the massive spend bill they just put forth?
The parrot thinks that as long as Democrat supporters sign enough FISA applications it's cool to spy on the presidential campaign of the opposing candidate. Wow.
Clapper's IQ is really questionable. Just look at this guy and the way he talks. I am all for equal employment opportunities, but man, not at the highest levels where it impacts national security and trust in our institutions. He looks absent minded most of the time, barely forms coherent sentences and seems to be unaware of syntax or laws, for that matter.
