So this is just ONE investigation. It was following up on a report that Trump's computer servers were being pinged by a system in Russia.
I am not going to expect any of you to be smart enough to fully understand what I just said, and I am too lazy to explain it more.

Wow, you are a true moron. The bank in Russia wasn't pinging Trumps server, a fake server was set up in Trump's name by a third party and was pinging the Russian bank. This way they could justify the FISA warrant.
You really need to spend more time over at the chans. Idiot.

Umm, no, it actually wasn't, they're referencing a Circa report which details more than one branch of investigation and goes beyond pinging a server:

Are you talking about the server out of Trump Tower that Vault 7 exposed as actually being run by the CIA?
