From: Mark Levin To: Brian Stelter Sent: 3/6/2017 11:31:11 A.M. Eastern Standard Time Subj: You are so thoroughly dishonest http://money.cnn.com/2017/03/06/media/mark-levin-joel-pollak-breitbart-trump-obama
Did you listen to my show on Thursday, before President Trump tweeted? Did you watch my appearance on Fox and Friends Sunday morning? I know you are ticked I did not appear on your show, despite your numerous requests. Your ad hominem attacks about "right wing" radio host and conspiracy theory stuff … incredible.
I simply put together the stories that YOUR profession reported, on the public record. Do you deny there were two FISA applications? Do you deny the first was turned down? Do you deny the second was approved? It's called the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. It is about surveillance. The fact that we cannot discern all the details because of the secrecy, except for what the media have revealed and selective leaks by the government, should cause you to want to know more, not to trash those who point it out.
And yes, we can make several logical implications based on events and experience. A FISA application is a big deal. One, or two in this case, that involve campaign surrogates, or a server or computer related to a candidate or campaign, etc., is a big deal. President Obama's statement is not a definitive statement of anything, other than he, personally, did not order a wiretap, which I never claimed. But that does not mean he was unaware of surveillance activity by several of his departments, even through routine reports to the president, such as the Daily Intel Briefing or information conveyed to him or his staff via the Justice Department re the FBI counter-intelligence activities. As for Clapper, despite his past dissembling before Congress, he may not have been aware of what was taking place since the FBI counter-intel operation reportedly sought the warrant. The Daily Intel Briefing might provide useful information in that regard as well.
Of course, the release of the FISA applications would also shed a lot of light on events, assuming YOU believe reports that they were filed.
Furthermore, Clapper has said, as recently as yesterday, that no connections between the Russians and the Trump campaign have been found. I am extremely critical of Russia, Putin, and the efforts to influence our election, although I do not believe they succeeded. That said, how would Clapper know of no connections if he, as former Director of National Intelligence, didn't look? On what is that based?
Your lack of curiosity and dishonesty about such matters and in dealing with me demean you and your profession. You are free to circulate this communication to whomever you wish, as I am making it public.
get’m Mark L!
Anyone who works for me CNN, MSNBC, or the New York Times have no idea what it means to be an honest journalist.
what is stelter’s side of the story? what gave cause to levin to single out stelter?
I usually don’t like Mark Levin, in fact haven’t really ever listened to him...
But when it comes to something like this, a Constitutional matter, you will be hard pressed to find someone other than Mark Levin to stand with it...
Way.To.Go.Mark!!!
Also ABC, CBS, Washington Post, Associated Press, and most at FauxNews.

oh, it was referred to at the link to a cnn article by selter about levin at the top of the letter

I had to turn it off because he is not even attempting to be objective. He started off with biased language and throwing in his little criticisms of Trump thinking he's being smart and playing to his liberal audience. He's is a poor television reporter, to say the least.
Well, he's only smart by half....
I haven’t been a fan of “the great one” lately but GO Mark GO!
Also, if you get the chance to listen to one podcast today, make it Dan Bongino. He talks about the real scandal behind the Trump-Russia Story.
Dan was a former United States Secret Service agent.
He is on soundcloud and apple podcasts.
Enjoy.
Job #1 is to get ahold of the FISA requests and make them public which is normally not done.
Then we need to compare what was different about the second request that caused it to be approved, because omitting material information that is relevant to the courts determination is a felony - perjury.
Like leaving out the name “Trump”...

A copy of the warrant will appear on the front page of the New York Times the next day.
Brian Stelter is far too ugly to be on TV.
In fact, he’s downright repulsive.
This is the Brian Stelter who blamed Trump when his own headquarters in NC were attacked during the campaign. He is very biased. As far as Levin, I bet he had a phone conversation with Donald Trump.
Obama didn’t read his PDB, and he didn’t attend security briefings.
Possibly because he wanted plausible deniability.
Possibly because he couldn’t follow what the hell they were talking about, and he was afraid they’d figure that out, which would result in an embarrassing scene.
Thank you for posting the link!
