7. Now, this authorization by POTUS (eg Obama) requires certification by the AG (eg Lynch - DOJ) that MUST be lodged with ‘the court’ (eg FISC):

'The (AG)+ shall immediately transmit under seal to the court ...(FISC).. a copy of his certification.' 8. So if my analysis is correct, a copy of that certification is currently under seal AT LEAST with the FISC & DOJ.

THAT'S what they're trying to desperately hide. 9. But that's just the start.

Yup, I’m assuming Trump is going to pound the table on this all summer long until the truth is revealed, and if so, I’m greatly looking forward to this summer!

I think this is highly probable. That kind of information would justify special handling because the consequences of inadvertent leaks could jeopardize future prosecutions of high level people.

Very interesting analysis and probably very close to what actually went down. Heads need to roll.

What they get caught at when a real investigation of the Clinton server is finally done is going to dwarf even this seditious conspiracy. She was operating a fire sale on US policy, open to bidders of any kind foreign or domestic.

There may as well be a blanket declasification of everything prior to Trump taking office, as any information of value has already been sold to enemies.

And Rip van Sessions is perched on the very top of this steaming pile of sedition.

Remember obozo the jug eared assclown, for at least a year before the 2016 election, constantly braying about how confident he was that Trump was not going to be the next president. He knew it was a sure thing because he had illegally rigged it a dozen different ways.

And guess what:

FBI Director of Counterintelligence Bill Priestap just happened to be in London in May 2016 at the same time Aussie diplomat with MI6 ties Alexander Downer was getting Papadop drunk and trying to get him to repeat to Downer the information about Russian Hillary emails Joseph Mifsud injected into Papadop.

EXCLUSIVE: BILL PRIESTAP, the FBI Assistant Director for Counterintelligence, (fmr. boss of PETER STRZOK) visited LONDON 🇬🇧 in the middle of May 2016

This previously undisclosed visit may have taken place the same week that ALEXANDER DOWNER met with GEORGE PAPADOPOULOS

The FBI Director of Counterintelligence coincidentally in London at the same time the biggest development happened in the biggest counterintelligence case in years, and which event they claimed was the basis for starting the investigation later on at the beginning of August.

Riiiiiiiiight.

I’d bet the buck stops with ValJar. obama is too slippery (Slimy?) to leave his prints on this.

He will claim that ‘someone’ must have done this while he was out golfing. It never made it to the nightly news and nobody informed him. So he was completely in the dark.

“Farsi-speaking Valerie Jarrett, the senior adviser to Obama, his right-hand woman was born in Iran. She also has ties with terrorist William Ayers, and her father-in-law, Vernon Jarrett is a card-carrying communist party member and associate of Frank Marshall Davis, the controversial Communist Party activist who was Obama’s childhood mentor. Davis is mentioned many times in Obama’s autobiography.

That would certainly explain why the deep state will not release the details of what started the investigation and any of the documents filed with the FISC court.

“An American POTUS can LEGALLY authorize electronic surveillance ‘without a court order... “

Yes, and they’ve muddied the intelligence trail just enough that it’s justifiable and nothing will happen.

I do t remember exactly when or who but we had something posted here last year - maybe it was Sundance that stated this : that Obama knew that the ‘legal’ way to go about this was via MI6/GCHQ as 5-Eyes because that would give cover spying on Trump. That’s what Rodgers found out and why MI6 guy quit day after Trump sworn in.

I think the author of the blog should follow his own advice and actually read what 50 U.S. Code § 1802 says:

(a)
(1) Notwithstanding any other law, the President, through the Attorney General, may authorize electronic surveillance without a court order under this subchapter to acquire foreign intelligence information for periods of up to one year if the Attorney General certifies in writing under oath that—
(A) the electronic surveillance is solely directed at—
(i) the acquisition of the contents of communications transmitted by means of communications used exclusively between or among foreign powers, as defined in section 1801(a)(1), (2), or (3) of this title; or
(ii) the acquisition of technical intelligence, other than the spoken communications of individuals, from property or premises under the open and exclusive control of a foreign power, as defined in section 1801(a)(1), (2), or (3) of this title;
(B) there is no substantial likelihood that the surveillance will acquire the contents of any communication to which a United States person is a party; and
(C) the proposed minimization procedures with respect to such surveillance meet the definition of minimization procedures under section 1801(h) of this title; and if the Attorney General reports such minimization procedures and any changes thereto to the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence at least thirty days prior to their effective date, unless the Attorney General determines immediate action is required and notifies the committees immediately of such minimization procedures and the reason for their becoming effective immediately.

IOW, according to the highlighted, neither Obama, nor any other President can simply bypass the FISA court when it comes to investigated US Persons. The only allowable targets are defined in §1801(a) 1,2 & 3:

(a) “Foreign power” means—
(1) a foreign government or any component thereof, whether or not recognized by the United States;
(2) a faction of a foreign nation or nations, not substantially composed of United States persons;
(3) an entity that is openly acknowledged by a foreign government or governments to be directed and controlled by such foreign government or governments;
