Senator Kennedy Asks Trump to Declassify Carter Page FISA Applications
The Epoch Times ^ | December 14, 2019 | ZACHARY STIEBER

Posted on 12/14/2019 9:48:45 AM PST by george76

Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) wants President Donald Trump to declassify the applications to spy on Trump campaign associate Carter Page.

“The Inspector General report showed the FBI was willing to do anything in order to spy on Carter Page, including making 17 significant inaccuracies and omissions. The American public deserves to know everything the FBI did,” Kennedy said ...

“I’m asking President Trump to declassify the entire record so that Attorney General Barr and FBI Director Wray can release it to the American people. If the FBI wants to continue the employment of rogue, politically-motivated agents, then let the public read the entire record.”

Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz released the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) applications as part of his investigation of how the FBI used FISA to surveil Page, but the applications were partially redacted.

...

Horowitz found that FBI officials made 17 “significant errors or omissions” in applying to the court to spy on Page and a number of other errors under Woods Procedures, or internal guidelines on how to apply for FISA approval.

...

Trump had ordered in Sept. 2018 the declassification of documents related to the FISA warrant applications and other documents linked to the Trump-Russia investigation. He later said that Horowitz was reviewing the documents because of concerns within the intelligence community and among “key allies.”

Let Durham do his thing. I know Horowitz whimped out but my gut tells me they’ve got Clinesmith by the short hairs. PAJAMA boys don’t do well in the Federal Penitentiaries.

The criminal organization FKA the FBI needs a wholesale deep scrub. It should be unnerving to everybody that, not only did the higher ups engage in treason, but that NOT A SINGLE agent in the entire FBI spilled the beans.

If they care more for their salary and pension than their oath, then they are in the wrong business. Try mortician or grave digger. Maybe javelin catcher or carnival rifle target.

Page was an asset for both the CIA and FBI. He was a plant into the Trump campaign and the FISA warrant gave cover for the Brennen operation. He’s still playing both sides.

Field agents wouldn’t have known about this as it was happening but you would think all the 99% (according to Hannity) good guys would speak up at this point.

Why haven’t we heard from Admiral Rogers? And I want to hear from General Flynn after he gets acquitted. There has to be a reason why they wanted to keep him quiet.

I bet Comey, McCabe, and/or Strock/Page instructed Clinesmith to fix the report on Page.

I sent Trump a note suggesting he fire FBI deep state Christopher Wray and replace him with General Flynn.

I strongly believe that Sidney Powell deserves a prominent position at DOJ. Tell Trump.

Yup, great idea! Based on her being defense attorney for General Flynn, I’m sure Trump is aware of her skill sets. 👍

It will all come out. In his book George P said Page tried to set him up with a meeting with Mifsud. Hannity needs to get on this.....

Well said. Every organization, from the family to businesses to government, take on the morals of their leaders. The FBI didn’t turn dirty overnight and the filth isn’t limited to the top floors.
