It is now going to be evidence in an entirely different kind of investigation. A criminal proceeding.

A “heads on pikes” kind of proceeding.

Not good enough. All cases must be dropped

Not the ones dealing with who approved and signed the warrants.

I do want those heads on pikes.

My understanding is that there are NO “cases” with this FISA material.

A FISA warrant is used to get information for a counter-intelligence investigation. It’s such a blatant violation of a target’s constitutional rights that the evidence really can’t be used in a criminal trial even if everything is done properly.

FISA is unconstitutional star chamber.

No place in our constitutional representative republic.

Their only punishment: they can’t further abuse the illegally obtained information which has already been leaked extensively. Nothing changes, our elite law enforcement squad will just keep on doing outrageously unlawful things with the wink and nod approval of the court and seemingly the Attorney General.

I agree. I’m just pointing out that I don’t think there are amy criminal cases where FISA evidence was used to get a conviction.

FISA was once a good tool to protect America and the left destroyed it and bastardized it to become a political tool. Heads should be rolling if they are not on pikes or still attached to a rope on a tree.

Don’t they need to track down every place the evidence from the surveillance was used? Shouldn’t it affect cases which could not have been made without this surveillance?

But that’s kinda the point and I don’t have a cogent argument for you but the FBI uses a process called parallel construction where they develope two lines of evidence one that was obtained legally but in reality is cherry picked or augmented some sort of evidence gained Via illegal surveillance or other shenanigans , the parallel track, that FBI hides from the discovery process. Any case they had fisa warrants most likely has this augmented parallel track. Apologies for the ad hoc nomenclature to describe poorly their scam

So the TH I is pulling all the details to cover somebody’s guilty ass. Time to disband the FBI and start over again. In between use the agency budget to build the wall.

The way it works is the FISA phone, email, text etc. intercepts are used to get the names of potential players and info that they can then claim they acquired the info through proper methods.
