Confirmed: the FISA warrants were obtained fraudulently

Many have long suspected that the FISA warrants on Carter Page and the Trump campaign were phony, but now the proof has begun to emerge. Via @Paul Sperry:

• The FBI's application to spy on Carter Page and Trump campaign repeats to FISA judge the myth that the GOP platform on Russia was watered down

It was not.

• The declassified FBI warrant application attests to secret FISA court that "THE FBI LEARNED that Page met with at least two Russian officials during the trip,"as if FBI learned this independently,when in fact it's clear it relied on Clinton-paid dossier for the information
• Target of FBI's FISA warrant broader than Page; also names Papadopoulos & Trump campaign: "FBI believes Russian Government's efforts to influence the 2016 US presidential election were being coordinated w Page & perhaps other individuals associated w [Trump's] campaign"

Both, IMO, were set up.

Here's the license to target anyone they wanted:

• The FISA docs for obtaining surveillance warrant on former Trump campaign advisor Carter Page state that the FBI has the authority to "INCIDENTALLY acquire other information" against additional targets while monitoring Page

The FBI recycled the same information over and over to renew the FISA warrant.

• JW's Tom Fitton: "These docs are heavily redacted but seem to confirm FBI & DOJ misled the courts in w/holding material information that Clinton campaign & DNC were behind the 'intelligence' used to persuade the courts to approve the FISA warrants that targeted the Trump team"
• In all the FISA apps filed to spy on Trump advisor Page there is no evidentiary source listed other than "Source #1" -- and "Source #1" is Christopher Steele. (There is no Source #2 or Source #3, etc. Just a single source -- Source #1.)

You've read me say this as well:

• Time & again, the FISA apps accuse Carter Page of being "an agent" of Russian intelligence engaged in criminal activities, yet Page has never been arrested or charged as a spy. And the FISA surveillance ended last year. Cleary, FBI got it WRONG. Otherwise, he'd be behind bars

Carter Page has been under FBI surveillance since 2013. You'd think they could figure it out by now, yet- nothing.

• FBI stated in FISA application to spy on Trump advisor Carter Page it didn't care what Steele's motive or "reason for conducting the research into [Trump's] ties to Russia" b/c he "provided reliable information to FBI [in the past]." Therefore, his dossier is "credible"

Steele never went to Russia. He did not get any of his information first hand, but the FBI swallowed it anyway.

• Christopher Steele hired "subsources" who collected dirt on Trump for his Clinton-funded dossier. The former British intelligence officer did not actually collect the information himself.

About that, former CIA #2 Mike Morrell said:

“The intermediaries paid the sources and the intermediaries got the money from Chris [Steele]. And that kind of worries me a little bit because if you’re paying somebody, particularly former FSB officers, they are going to tell you truth and innuendo and rumor...”

Morrell also said:

The FISA Court was never told (and apparently never asked) that all of the alleged information came from the hillary campaign and the DNC

• Newly declassified FISA application on Carter Page reveals FBI never told the court that its main source -- Steele -- was paid through the Clinton campaign. It merely says he was hired by a "business associate" and a "law firm," which it never ID's as Clinton/DNC lawyer

The FISA warrants were issued on the basis of media articles (with information all paid for by hillary and the DNC)

• Over and over, the newly released FISA app on Carter Page reveals the FBI cited liberal media articles, along with the Clinton-paid political dossier, as EVIDENCE to support the warrant to spy on Page, and by extension, the Trump campaign.

Someone needs to explain why the FBI would not do its own research to verify. (Actually, that's unnecessary- we already know that Comey, McCabe and Strzok were not interested in anything other than taking down Trump.)

And now Strzok is looking at perjury charges:

I’ve long thought that RosenWesel should be brought up on Fraud charges.

"the FISA surveillance ended last year."

What is the status of the actual surveillance?

[bboop]

Take the keys and lock them up - in Gitmo. They love Cuba; let them escape to the island but not beyond.

[EnglishOnly]

Of course they were...…. after all, this is the land of lawlessness.

Anybody seen or heard from Sleepy?

I’d like to see Alan Dershowitz step forward, sharpen his sword, and make mincemeat of ALL these pieces of garbage, and that includes Obama.

[Arm_Bears]

Let’s roll.

[marktwain]

Once again, this shows the powerful interaction with the media and the government intelligence operatives.

The media, or at least, accepted Progressively reliable Media, is used as an integral part of the subversion of state resources to target people the Media deems unacceptable.

[Bullish]

The truth isn’t coming out until this is all laid at the feet of the main instigator. Barak Hussein Obama.

[Paladin2]

I just have to believe that Mueller is getting daily intel updates.

[raiderboy]

Factually and legally correct on all counts. This should go immediately to a grand jury. Whoops that would take sessions doing his job, sorry.

[butlerweave]

Rigged the Dem side for Hillary and then tried to rig the Presidential Election for Hillary .Forcing your opponent out of the race , Obama’s favorite tactic

[oldtech]

Isn’t the time past due that some jail sentences were handed down in this matter?

[Paladin2]

Collusion, Never News

I’d like to see Alan Dershowitz step forward, sharpen his sword, and make mincemeat of ALL these pieces of garbage, and that includes Obama.

Dersh is not really on our side. He only thinks that this was all incompetence and not a criminal conspiracy against Trump.

“Anybody seen or heard from Sleepy?”

Last I heard he was still after some ranchers out west. Beyond that nada.

Paul Manafort is not amused.
