    The Daily Bell is simply a click-bait news aggregator, not a primary source.

    Here's some comments by the site's moderator in response to some pointed comments seeking actual evidence.  None was forthcoming.

    Commenter
    "This is a shabby article. There is no link to the original source and no specific accusations or evidence is provided. How would McCain be able to tap the president's phone? what is the evidence?"

    "This was a follow to a previous article two days ago, That article is freely available. This article makes extensive use of an article by Truth Pundit, also freely available. The article relays that information. McCain could have seen transcript or he could have listened to conversations courtesy of the CIA."

    Commenter
    "how does that add credence to this story where the reporter prevaricates rather than definitively states any proof?

    "some officials think the senator listened"
    "They say, reportedly "
    "McCain definitely seems a major player"
    "figure out McCain’s full involvement and along with the laws broken."


    Weasel words instead of actual journalism??

    "McCain is a high profile public figure. And this is speculation surrounding him. If it turn out not to be true, we'd report on that as well.  We'll continue to report on the speculation surrounding him without saying definitively that it is true. It's of legitimate interest."

    Fake News or just sloppy reporting ?? (I followed the link in the opening comment here).
