Houston, we have a problem... If that's the case, we need to impeach a judge or two or three on the FISA court. Political documents with their known bias should not be considered as justification for a warrant by any judge.
The FBI should be angry with the Democrats for lying and playing politics with the agency.
Are Schiff’s eyes popping? If so, he’s lying, as usual.
I don’t believe one word that comes out of Adam Schiff’s mouth.
The phrase “political bias” is injected to pretend the FISA judge was aware that the Hillary campaign and the DNC PAID FOR the dossier.
It is a LIE!
So is Schiffhead illegally leaking talking points from the RAT memo?
Schiff should be more clear on what he is saying and not saying.
Apparently, there was a footnote in the application to FISC that indicated Steele may have demonstrated political bias against Trump.
What the application did not say is that Trump’s political opponent paid Steele and/or Fusion GPS. By all accounts, that is a material omission.
I saw a great analogy today. How would the SEC view a statement made by a public company to the effect that it was having supply chain issues in South America, versus saying that Venezuela had nationalized the firm’s assets?
There are many ways to lie, which Schiff so amply demonstrates time and time again.
Schiff went there. ...and publically accused the judge(s) of knowingly approving an fraudulent application.
Popcorn please.
What video is he talking about?
"I think the FISA court was made well aware..."
That's one of the problems, Schiff for brains, you don't think, you can't, without a functioning brain stem. And what you think the FISA court was made aware of, or not, is irrelevant. But, never mind, you know this already.
Right.
Had the court seen the obviously fabricated salacious passages, they may have been more inclined to regard the entire instrument as a politically motivated fabrication, which it was.
The salacious parts go DIRECTLY to the credibility of the info. Cherry-picking select data can make ANY information seem “credible”.
Thank you Mr Schiff for confirming that the FBI did not present all the relevant info.
There's your sign...
“I think”................not they where but I think.
Yep.
a) Schiffhead is lying.
b) The FISA courts are totally corrupt.
If ‘b’ go to Special Counsel.
Schiff sounds like a whiny dem poof.
If the FISA court were nonpolitical they would have had a show cause hearing by now as to why the DOJ lawyers who got the Carter Page and other Trump team warrants from the court should not be held in contempt for committing fraud on the court. The longer they refuse to take contempt action against the DOJ lawyers, the more it becomes clear they knew about the phony dossier justification for the warrant and went ahead and ordered it anyway, which makes them complicit along with the DOJ lawyers in violating the FISA.
Only "some" of it?
On its face, that sounds like a clear admission that whoever attested under oath to the veracity of the evidence proffered for the FISC committed a felony.
This guy is Schniffing too much Whiteout. So the FISA court was told that the smears against Carter Page were cherry-picked from a politically biased “dossier” but the judge approved the request anyway? And he thinks that gives us comfort? This is the most pathetic attempt at “plausible reportability” I’ve ever seen. But you can be sure NPR will be crowing that Schiff has refuted the Memo with this inanity.
Now Schiff is pointing out the FISA court is crooked as a way to try to say the warrants were justified - not enough popcorn in the world for where this is going....
