    White House officials have learned that President Donald Trump’s cellphone conversations are being intercepted by Russia and China to gather information on his associates and policy positions, The New York Times reported Wednesday.

    The officials cited in the report, who remained anonymous, said they were alerted by individuals working within these foreign governments. They said the Chinese have determined a list of contacts with whom the president speaks most frequently.

    The president keeps two official iPhones with modifications by the National Security Agency, and a third personal phone for personal contacts, White House officials said. But using any cell phone poses some risk. The report indicated Trump prefers using his cell phones over the White House's more secure landline.

    China has sought to use the information to form ties with Trump’s associates or "friends of the Trump friends" to ensure Beijing’s views will be delivered to the president, according to the officials cited in the report.

    Two men named in the report were businessmen Stephen A. Schwarzman and Steve Wynn, who both have dealings in China. Both declined to comment for the paper.

    Fox News reached out to the White House early Thursday to confirm elements of the report but did not immediately get a response.

    Russia does not monitor the president’s phone conversations to the extent of China because of Trump’s supposed affinity for Russian President Vladimir Putin. But Trump's aides have reportedly warned that Russian spies are "routinely eavesdropping" on his calls, the report said.
    =================================================================

    Is it okay with everyone that your mentor your high priest as he risks the national security of our entire country because he refuses to use a secure phone provided to him? Trump has gone as long as five months without having his phone checked by security experts. President Barack Obama handed over his white house phones every 30 days. Trump's call-capable cellphone has a camera and microphone, those are features that Obama abandoned in favor of security protocol.

    Trump needs to resign, or be removed by Amendment XXV.

    Trump is not the victim; he is the creator of the situation that allows Russia and China to punk him.

    Absolutely. Failure to use an official landline at all times is certainly an impeachable offense.

    An impeachable offense is what Congress says is an impeachable offense.

    However, I said Amendment XXV.

    He used a phone sanctioned and monitored by the Nsa and it is being intercepted?!? The question we should be asking is what is going on at the Nsa or better yet, what is going on with these phones at these specific foreign governments? If it was a problem on our end, they would be monitoring All Trumps conversations. It's not like they would only listen to conversations with foreign entities and the give Trump his deserved privacy in other calls.

    If true, this is a very serious national security issue. It would fit into the Manchurian candidate that I have described him.

    No silly, spies don't have to hide around Trump. He invites them into the Oval Office and gives them state secrets.

    No, they do know. Trump just does not care. Surely you don't find that the least bit surprising.

    This is a lot more real, and obvious, that all that phony crap about Hillary's e mail and server.

    Can you imagine how insufferably boring it would be listening to Trump go on and on about his greatness and victimhood.

    Hannity has texted Trump and advised him to remove and destroy the SIM card and smash the phone with a hammer. Now we’ll never know the truth...

    Then all Trump has to do is put Comey back in as Director and it’s all good.

    Am I calling this right?

    The Trumpers will double down on "nuh uh" instead of admit that Trump is willful and does not use good common sense in using these phones.

    Trump wilfully has personal conversations on his personal phone? Gasp. I hear he refuses to dry off with bath towels embroidered with the presidential seal too.

    Trump has conversations that have to do with the business of the President of the US as well, as you know. Stop the alt fact nonsense. Your boy is a danger to the American welfare.
