President Donald Trump started off his Saturday morning Twitter attacks going after NBC’s Chuck Todd for continuing to focus on investigations into Russian ties to his administration, saying he should instead, “start talking about the Obama surveillance scandal.”

“When will Sleepy Eyes Chuck Todd and @ NBCNews start talking about the Obama SURVEILLANCE SCANDAL and stop with the Fake Trump/Russia story?” the president tweeted.

Trump later added, “It is the same Fake News Media that said there is “no path to victory for Trump” that is now pushing the phony Russia story. A total scam!”

With that tweet, Trump once again brought up his unsubstantiated accusations that former President Barack Obama wiretapped Trump Tower — an assertion that has roiled the White House and opened the door to multiple investigations by Congressional committees.
