The reason it was easy for the FBI to get FISA permission to spy on Trump was because spying on Conservative Americans WAS the FISA norm during the Obama years.

Statistics will give the answer... It's how Lois Lerner was 'unmasked' - she WAS targeting Conservative Groups - - numbers told the truth. Trey Gowdy can get the numbers on FISA.

To all of you Gowdy hating FRiends:

Some of you remind me of the same people who pronounce
their distain for Limbaugh during election season. I
am not so sure that their expectations are not a little
out of whack. In the case of Limbaugh he has a radio
show to do. His job is to defend conservatism not to
endorse a candidate in a primary. I know this because
I’ve listened since 1985.

As to Gowdy, what the hell kind of power do you think
he has? He tears apart libtard liars in Congressional
hearings but what else does he have the power to do
without the sayso from the House leadership. Can
he throw people in jail or hold a trial? I would
be happy to have somebody set me straight. Why should
we be happy to see Trey leave?

In March 2007 Devin Nunes visited the SCIFF at the White House and saw evidence of Obama’s direct involvement (as seen in his PDB’s) in illegal surveillance of Americans UNRELATED TO RUSSIA...

Flashback March 2017

‘Representative Nunes on Russia and 2016 Elections House Intelligence Committee Chair Devin Nunes (R-CA) said President Trump was concerned following their meeting in which he was told classified information showed members of the intelligence community collected “incidental” communications of the Trump transition team. ‘

Just FYI:

The eleven FISA judges rotate one week of presiding for each. If my math is right, that means that the 90 day renewals should never come up before the same judge as the last request.

“4 judges”

I’m assuming that’s the original application plus the subsequent renewals. And there’s no need to “Judge shop” these applications are only denied .02% of the time.

in, ranking minority member on the Senate Intelligence Committee, and Rep. Adam Schiff, ranking minority member on the House Intelligence Committee — released a joint statement that went further then what U.S. officials had publicly said about the matter.

“Based on briefings we have received, we have concluded that the Russian intelligence agencies are making a serious and concerted effort to influence the U.S. election,” they said. “At the least, this effort is intended to sow doubt about the security of our election and may well be intended to influence the outcomes of the election.” They added that “orders for the Russian intelligence agencies to conduct such actions could come only from very senior levels of the Russian government“

The presiding FISC judge assigns petitions to one of (at least 3) local judges following 50 U.S. Code § 1803 procedures.

See United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court Rule #38 HERE

Piro chuckled at the notion of more than one judge. She is privy to something ...

That is weak. I’ve seen it before w/out the asinine
sound effects. You sure as hell can support a Mueller
investigation while believing that Trump is guilty
of NOTHING. Even if Gowdy is not even sure about Trump
it makes him a part of the Deep State? Geesh! He has held
Demo feet to the fire better than any other. Further,
this is a recent video, I believe, and the Gowdy hate
has been going on for quite a while.

Got anything else, newfreep?

Thanks for responding but that don’t help none!

Are you among those who think Gowdy could do
everything by himself? I don’t think you’re
a serious Gowdy Pouty. Thanks for trying.

I could be swayed, still.....
