DNI Declassifies FISA Judge James Boasberg 2018 Ruling – FBI Conducted “Tens of Thousands” of Unauthorized NSA Database Queries…

Posted on October 8, 2019 by sundance

There is a lot to unpack in a decision today by the Director of National Intelligence to declassify (with redactions) a 2018 FISA court ruling about ongoing unauthorized database search queries by FBI agents/”contractors” in the period covering 2017/2018.

BACKGROUND: In April 2017 the DNI released a FISA report written by Presiding Judge Rosemary Collery that showed massive abuse, via unauthorized searches of the NSA database, in the period of November 2015 through May 2016. Judge Collyer’s report specifically identified search query increases tied to the 2016 presidential primary.  Two years of research identified this process as the DOJ/FBI and IC using the NSA database to query information related to political candidates, specifically Donald Trump.

[…]  The court ruling identifies tens of thousands of improper searches of raw intelligence databases by the bureau in 2017 and 2018 that it deemed improper in part because they involved data related to tens of thousands of emails or telephone numbers—in one case, suggesting that the FBI was using the intelligence information to vet its personnel and cooperating sources. Federal law requires that the database only be searched by the FBI as part of seeking evidence of a crime or for foreign intelligence information.

If nobody goes to jail, the deep state won, and the next DemSocRat POTUS will cement the Commies Uber Alles deal permanently.

The band is warming up.

Getting the American public used to the idea that the government has abused them.

I hope we soon see some other FISA court documents released.

This for posting!

An Obama judge, but seems reasonable.

Newbie judges seem to get appointed to the FISC court.
I guess it’s hard duty.

mueller and rosenwiesel. Using the data bases to screen for dirt on opponents, and also to screen new employees to make sure they have something on them to keep them inline.

I noticed something in the snippet from the Mueller Dossier:

“made 13 requests to foreign governments pursuant to Mutual Assistance Treaties”

Hmmm, isn’t that what the faux impeachment is all about?

Why yes, yes it is exactly what the parody impeachment is about.

It could have been done in conjunction with the Mueller Report.

I have a strong feeling these push polls coming out that there is a majority that wants impeachment are full of sht.

The rank and file, being the good guys that they are, are no doubt hopping mad over this. Expect them to speak up. Any minute now.

They are probably heading to the microphones as we sepeak...

This is big news. This all happened under the corrupt obama regime. The corrupt President and Administration set the tone for the entire government to be corrupt.

Those in law enforcement positions to be corrupt should have been the people to prevent it but instead they joined in or even led the corruption. The deep state got deeper and even more corrupt.

How deep up the chain of command did the corruption go? We already know it went as high as the VP. I find it impossible to believe the President at the time didn’t know what was going on all around and under him in the chain of command.

I join Nunes in saying people need to go to jail over this starting with obama and his entire cabinet which of course includes Biden and Hildebeast. This wasn’t a mistake or poor judgement. This was an outright crime that anyone of us would get 10-20 years in prison for.

I guess we now know what one thing obama meant when he said he was going to fundamentally change America (and the government). Destroy America by any means necessary.

These judges knew the cases were bad. That’s the whole point of bringing it to a judge. The judge looks at the evidence presented and decides to issue the warrant or not issue it. These judges are responsible for their actions (or should be.)

Hope Judge Boasberg does ATONEMENT tonite for the Jewish Holyday!

Atkinson.....DIRTY DEEP STATE DEMOCRAT! And totally INCOMPETENT also!

So I assume the people that were illegally targeted will be notified under the court order, right? If I were one of these people I’d be on the phone to a civil rights attorney and hitting them with the biggest civil class action suit in history.
