FISA Abuse by FBI

“The Act came into public prominence in December 2005 following publication by The New York Times of an article[5] that described a program of warrantless domestic wiretapping ordered by the Bush administration and carried out by the National Security Agency since 2002; a subsequent Bloomberg article[6]suggested that this may have already begun by June 2000.”

Surprise! From the same administration that informed us that the Executive Branch is not constrained by the Constitution.

IG is now reexamining first FISA application based on the link in post 1. Apparently this info was withheld from IG. IG already determined FISA apps 2-4 were bad. Criminal referals coming. Go get them Horowitz!

These are just my opinions, no reason to take them serious.

Right after the indictments come in from Trimp's Blue Ribbon Commission on Voter Fraud. I mean, when they disbanded it was because they had passed down indictments, right? That's what Fox told us.

Former FBI leaders rebut questions about the Russia investigation

“The case was about Russia,” he said. “It was about Russia. Period. Full stop. That was the focus of the investigation. . . . We have groups of people that constantly, their job is to focus on nothing but Russia. As we’re staring at the Russian problem, to the extent that other people, third-country nationals, or Americans or anybody else comes across our radar screen and has a connection to the Russians in some way that looks nefarious to us and falls within the scope of the attorney general guidelines that authorize us to conduct investigations — if that comes across our radar screens, then we go and investigate that and run it down wherever it goes."

Moonbug and other Trumpkin legal beagles who talk like a criminal's lawyers trying to get the crime boss off the hooks even though we all know he's guilty are completely missing the reason for this investigation. It was not about Trump. The FBI's investigation was about Russian attacks on the US election system. In spite of the fact that after more than a year of investigations by two different Republican Congressional committees into claims the FISA warrant was invalid, their conclusion was No Evidence that the FBI's investigation into Trump's campaign's connections with Russia were improper.

So then moonbug posts an opinion piece where the publisher up-front disclaims a connection between the truth and what the author said.

650+ US Attorney's agreeing about anything specific is in and of it self a rarity. The fact that they all agree that what he did was criminal is pretty significant.

I have no problem with defendants defending themselves. Much more to come out on all this. Stay tuned.
