If the FISA judges that signed off on these warrants were NOT part of the conspiracy, immediately upon the public release of the Steele propaganda, they would have summoned Comey, Clapper, Brennan, and Rosenstein to appear before them and they would have been Remanded in to Custody for Contempt and a Criminal Referral would have been made for FRAUD UPON THE COURT, Perjury,...

Everyone needs to stop pretending the court was hoodwinked, they ARE IN IT UP TO THEIR EYEBALLS!!!

Good point. By now they should have all been before the judge(s) making their case for how they did not lie (by not mentioning) certain items in their application. Seems to me I would be boiling mad if I were one of the judges who signed any of those warrants. The FBI’s own procedures call for verification or corroboration of the details. The
corroboration seems to be news articles based on the same dossier AND comments by the candidate and Harry Reid, one big daisy chain.

I learned the expression “Never assign to malice what might be incompetence.” Your theory is the malice, and is very plausible. There might be something else involved here besides malice and incompetence.

It is also possible that since the whole FISA process is closed, and it basically involves a judge and the government (there is no defendant in these secret processes), whatever the government asks for, the judge grants. A culture and working relationship exists that the judge could really be replaced by an auto-rubber stamp machine in a room. If the judge screws up, it won’t see the light of day in 99.99999999% of the cases, ... except this one.

Now, presume this judge did play rubber stamp and was not part of the conspiracy. If the judge intervenes now with potential contempt proceedings, hell and fury will be released upon the judge reaching levels of hate shown the PResdient, and perhaps his or her personal safety is at issue. A contempt proceeding would interrupt and perhaps end the Mueller fake investigation. The stakes are extremely high. And the judge surely knows from the inside how Washington “really works” and would not want to run counter to its insider rules and culture.

Leftists love to talk about an independent judiciary except in such a case as this. If the judge doesn’t act on potential contempt, then it shows the FISA process cannot work as currently constructed because there is no real remedy for improper and perhaps illegal government action. The judge has to decide if (s)he is going to uphold the Constitution and hold the government accountable. I think the judge has been intimidated indirectly and will stay away from intervening, to be able to retire in peace and harmony with a big fat pension. It is a sad day for America, and this judge will be a footnote in American history rather than a bright example of great American who stood up for the rule of law - even against the powerful who abuse the government for their own political purposes.
