In a tweet on 4 March 2017 at 6:35 AM President Trump wrote "Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my "wires tapped" in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!"
This montage photograph by Paul Shambroom uses a 1944 self-portrait by Weegee to create a visual satire on Kellyanne Conway, adviser to President Trump, and her comment on surveillance:
"There are many ways to surveil each other now, unfortunately. “There was an article this week that talked about how you can surveil someone through their phones, certainly through their television sets, any number of different ways. And microwaves that turn into cameras, et cetera. So we know that that is just a fact of modern life." (reported in The LA Times, "Kellyanne Conway on surveillance: We have 'microwaves that turn into cameras'", 13 March 2017, 8:03 AM)
