A Cabal of Sociopaths
American Thinker ^ | 21 May, 2023 | Clarice Feldman

The continued life of this Constitutional Republic is in grave danger from the cabal of sociopaths in critical positions of power.

If we learned anything this week, we’ve learned that the continued life of this Constitutional Republic is in grave danger from the cabal of sociopaths in critical positions of power, and that it is because scaremongers and a supine press and judiciary have permitted enactment of dangerous legislation and illegal conduct to go on and on unpunished. Worse, the perpetrators are being richly rewarded for their violation of law and public trust.

FISA

Friday the FISC (Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court ) released a report that was written and kept under seal since last year.

It found that:

The FBI continued to abuse a powerful digital surveillance tool even after the Bureau promised reforms following its Trump-era abuses, according to a newly-unsealed Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court document.

The FBI misused Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) more than 278,000 times, the Washington Post reported, “including against crime victims, January 6 riot suspects, and people arrested at protests in the wake of the police killing of George Floyd in 2020.” In one particularly egregious case, they reportedly relied on Section 702 to spy on 19,000 donors to a congressional candidate.

Section 702 is a provision of the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 that “permits the government to conduct targeted surveillance of foreign persons located outside the United States, with the compelled assistance of electronic communication service providers, to acquire foreign intelligence information.”

There has been some talk of deputizing other law enforcement to prosecute the federal bad actors. To some degree this has already been happening with state AG’s filing suits against the feds. Unfortunately neither they nor this administration has held any individuals accountable.

Congress can ratchet down the leeway of the FISA court and demand the retirement of the FISA judge who approved Comey’s “Russiagate hoax.” That judge should also face some penalties (fines) for his laxity.

There could be a class action suit against FBI/DOJ and creditors for illegal invasion of privacy by persons whose bank records were submitted to FBI. We are NOT without remedies!
