The FISA court officially acknowledged Thursday that the FBI submitted false information when obtaining warrants to surveil Trump campaign aide Carter Page. Therefore, the FISA warrants that were issued are invalid.
"Thanks in large part to the work of the Office of the Inspector General, U.S. Department of Justice, the Court has received notice of material misstatements and omissions in the applications filed by the government in the above-captioned dockets. See Docket No. Misc. 19-02, Order (Dec. 17, 2019; DOJ PIG, Review of Four FISA Applications and Other Aspects of the FBI's Crossfire Hurricane Investigation (Dec. 2019)," the court released in an order. "DOJ assesses that with respect to the applications in Docket Numbers 17-375 and 170679, 'if not earlier, there was insufficient predication to establish probable cause to believe that [Carter] Page was acting as an agent of a foreign power.'"
During the time the FBI was illegally surveilling Carter Page with illegitimate and illegally obtained FISA warrants, Page was working for the CIA on behalf of the United States. He was not working for the Russias as the FBI and their friends in the media repeatedly stated.
In his long awaited report about FISA abuse, which was released late last year, Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz found the FBI failed to meet "basic obligations" when applying for warrants. FBI agents and attorneys, led by former Director James Comey and Deputy Director Andrew McCabe also made nearly two dozen egregious "mistakes" in the process.
Due to the seriousness and extent of the FISA abuse uncovered by Horowitz, a number of Senators have considered shutting the court down.
I still can’t understand how they were so stupid as to not realize that a CIA asset would not reveal that if things got hot.
Any never now.
Whoever signed them should be in prison.
My question exactly.
Why aren’t the f*ckers who took those warrants out in jail like yesterday?
You or I would be, for much, much less.
Getting seriously sick of these people walking all over us and laughing about it.
Getting seriously sick of these people walking all over us and laughing about it.
You and me both.
L
Holding my breath......... Okay, I’m done.
As soon as a Republican steps out line. All rats are safe.
so when do they rescind them and all the “evidence” and convictions based on them get revoked?
Will this be reported on the “news”?
Rush suddenly is off today, Hannity as well. I get the feeling something big may be up tomorrow.
Democrats can break the law, nothing happens.
That is why Trump is being impeached. His duty as POTUS was to look into Americans violating treaties and threatening other counties (the Bidens). Therefore all DEMOCRATS think its just political attacks.......because They are above the law.
99,999,999
99,999,998
99,999,997
...
Trump should have had his people burning this whole sham down.
Start with Brennan, Comey, Lerner, and work down the list.
As I said - you or I would already BE in jail for much, much less.
This is pure and total bullsh*t that it’s allowed to go this long.
Hannity was on his radio show today.
FISA is unconstitutional and every senator worth keeping ought to shut the corrupt, damn star chamber down.
I suspect the FBI has been abusing their power when dealing with conservative Americans too... and for a long time. We deserve better than the FBI - a lot better.
About 4 frickin’ years too late.
Under Brennan’s employ. HMMMM....
If I were Page I would hire Nick Sandmann’s attorney and make a list of people to serve. Minimum settlement per person $5M.
