DOJ snooped on House Intelligence Committee investigators during Russia probe, subpoenas show
JusttheNews ^ | John Solomon

Posted on 12/20/2022 2:14:27 AM PST by Tench_Coxe

In an extraordinary intrusion on congressional oversight, the Justice Department used grand jury subpoenas to secretly obtain the personal email and phone data of at least two top House Intelligence Committee investigators back in November 2017 just as they and their boss, then-Chairman Devin Nunes, were assembling bombshell evidence of FBI abuses in the Russia collusion probe, Just the News has learned.

(snip)

The subpoena does not specify which component of the DOJ was leading the investigation, but included a numbering system suggesting it was being handled by the U.S. Attorney's Office in Washington D.C.

Makes you wonder who is really running the Federal Government, doesn't it?

One thing for certain-its not the people of these United States.

It would be neat to find out what would happen if you snoop on the DOJ.

Barely.

The Deep State has become an all-powerful beast.

The FBI and the DOJ combined have almost unlimited power and there is no practical mechanism for stopping them. Add in the intelligence agencies and ask yourself "Who is like this beast? Who is able to make war with him?”

As an aside, I am not saying the Deep State is the Biblical Beast. But, seriously, can we imagine a beast with greater human/natural (i.e., not supernatural) strength?

Daniel 7:23 says the final world government beast shall come.

I expect it to start on a theater level before the final world government beast comes to complete fruition.

But that’s a guess.

The lockdowns implemented global tyranny almost overnight.

Daniel 7:23
King James Version

23 Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.

From the article:

Nunes said the subpoenas gave the DOJ and FBI unprecedented potential to learn in real-time what his investigation was learning about misconduct in the Russia probe. He called on the new Republican Congress to probe the subpoenas aggressively.

“The FBI and DOJ spied on a presidential campaign, and when Congress began exposing what they were doing, they spied on us to find out what we knew and how we knew it,” Nunes told Just the News. “It’s an egregious abuse of power that the next Congress must investigate so these agencies can be held accountable and reformed.”


Will the new congress actually investigate this unconstitutional act?

They will have the capability. They have the smoking gun. They have the precident of the Jan 6th investigation. But there are way too many deep state agents in the Republican party.

Oh yeah. We have country. We just don’t have a Constitutional Republic anymore.

Nope.

And speaking of Deep State, it’s not just social media and the national media that it has infiltrated.

Folks should start taking a good look at who’s working for their local enemedia.

Hint, hint...

This is the same Devin Nunes who would make appearances on Fox News every night to complain about FISA warrant abuses … then go back to Congress the next day and push his fellow Republicans to pass legislation to extend the FBI-CIA authority to conduct FISA surveillance.

These people are so full of sh!t.

Due to the internet, no govt has ever known as much about their individual citizens as now. A few keystrokes and they know more about me than I do.

You have a point there.
OTOH …. Devin might have been pushing for significant reforms in the FISA laws?
Hmmmm …. well, that would have been nice.
But, like I said: You make a good point.

Yes, they know your real identity, every post you made on FR, every comment you made online, every bank transaction, traceable purchase, etc. It is all stored in those datacenters in Utah.

I am 56 and when I was younger, we talked about the FBI having a paper file on many people without their knowledge. Well, that file is now digital and expanded.

At a gathering this week someone said that PINO Joe is a legitimate asset / operative for the CCP — an actual member. We know he’s been bought and paid for, along with so many others who run our government.
