Former AG Michael Mukasey just stated on Lou Dobbs that Trump has power to access FISA warrants

Posted on 03/06/2017 4:40:11 PM PST by RoosterRedux

Yep, this is a vanity. But I wanted to get this important tidbit of information in front of youse guys.

Mukasey, who should know, stated that Trump has the power to get to the bottom of this matter at least as it pertains to accessing the FISA applications and warrants...and probably anything else that the intel community knows.

Trump is client number one, after all. U.S. intel works for HIM.

I have no links but if this matter results in a printed story (and I find it), I will post it here.

I believe that Napolitano said this morning that Trump could not access it directly through the court because that’s the judicial branch, but he has access to EVERYTHING in the Executive branch.

Odds are that he already has the evidence.

From what I hear, an agency can apply for a broad FISA warrant, for the Trump Tower for example, to listen for foreign influence in the elections (for example) and then (legally) wiretap every swinging peewee in the Tower.

Just a guess, but I wonder if this was the reason for Comey's 3 hour behind-closed-doors meeting with the House Intelligence Committee on Thursday. Reportedly, Rep Adam Schiff (Butthead-California) stormed out of the meeting when it ended.

I know a lot of people don't trust Comey, but I think he has the goods. I notice that the media likes to attach statements to him through "sources" but I think he's got all the nasty stuff and is willing to unload it all.

There's a storm coming to DC all right. Even Jim Cantore won't show up for that.

I remember after the first debate which Lester Holt moderated, and after which Hillary had a screaming fit because the questions had not been approved by her in advance - she was hysterical with her staff and was hollering at them, “If he gets elected he’ll throw us all in jail.”

And we thought she was referring to the server stuff, but it seems there was a lot more to it than that.

Their world is collapsing...and it must be hard to grasp just how big a deal this really is.

Yes, that's true. They patiently waited for over 60 years for their big moment with Hillary as the icing on the cake, thus establishing their Thousand Year Reich. They infiltrated government, the churches, unions, schools, victim groups, etc., to arrive at this crowning achievement, and then this irreverent New Yawk business tycoon steps and blows their cleverly crafted, plans to $hit.

What does that mean? Wikileaks Vault 7.

I saw the tweet but don’t know what it means.

I think it refers to he 7th floor at the State Department...where the residents were fired by President Donald J. Trump (ILWT) last week

if so could be a batch of their e-mails.

(ILWT = I Love Writing That)

And they’d have gotten away with it too, if hadn’t been for those meddling deplorables!

“AND WIKILEAKS JUST OPENED VAULT 7!

It’s shaping up to be a very interesting week...”

I’m wondering if they’re connected.

Yep. All that Alinsky planning, praying and sacrificing to Lucifer, and vast patience.

And then Trump comes along and destroys it all.

Lovin' it.

Holy Cow. If Vault 7 means the 7th fl of State...that is an incredibly big deal.

According to Judge Napolitano the President has the power to order surveillance on anyone he wants to and he doesn’t need a warrant to do so. If that is true Obama leaves no paper trail.

My bet is he does

Dream situation: If before Saturday morning, Trump had acquired the petition and resulting warrant, and he had declassified it, and it literally showed top officials perjuring themselves for abuse of power, with Obama's approval...

He would for this.

#21, perhaps he has the goods, but wants the Congress to investigate and supaena documents. To find out who will commit perjury, destroy evidence and those on Congressional Committees that will push the investigations and those that will obstruct.

Maybe Admiral Rogers informed Trump that Barry, Illary and Lynch were blackmailing Comey in the email mess so he took a dive in fear for his Family...

Instead of Comey being the Investigator, he will feed what he knows to Congress on the trail of Corruption to V.J. And Barry.
With Bill Clinton and Lynch as RICO players.

On top of all that it will play out on Live internet feed for everyone to see.
No super secret closed Court where the likes of Sid Blumenthal and Stefenopolus twisting the story.

A possibility....

Why isn’t he doing it???


To better set up the Establishment media for a fall.

Trump knows his timing. Must let them stick their neck out before you chop.

Maybe something else:

Feb 7, 2017 - Wikileaks began tweeting out a series of cryptic tweets with the hashtag #Vault7 on Feb. ...

The #Doomsday Seed Vault 7 is located in the Arctic at Svalbard
