The '''Obamagate''' controversy refers to several scandals during [[President Barack Obama]] tenure, notably the misuse of government agencies, media manipulation, illegal wiretaping, and domestic spying on American citizens to harass political opponents and critics. By the election year of 2016, Obama officials vastly expanded the use of the foreign intelligence gathering apparatus as a weapon against domestic political opponents. In 2013, there were 9,600 FISA search queries involving 195 Americans. But in 2016, there are 30,355 searches of 5,288 Americans.<ref>https://sharylattkisson.com/2018/05/20/collusion-against-trump-timeline/ </ref><ref>http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2017/05/intelligence-reports-raise-questions-about-obama-administration-surveillance.php </ref>
