One technical question I’ve had is can warrants be executed as retro-active. Could a judge say, so you’ve collected data that proves the denied application should have been approved? Then I’ll back date it for you.
This would just be crossing Is and dotting Ts if the judge and requestors were absolutely certain HRC would win, and HRC opening investigations on DJT.

interesting
“But then DNI Clapper publicly stated that there was no FISA Court warrant targeting team Trump.”
Warrantless surveillance on US soil was only meant to be used against suspected terrorists:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NSA_warrantless_surveillance_(2001–07)
The Flynn call with the Russian ambassador should have a warrant or was done illegally.
And it's only a matter of time until this story blows wide open. It's ticking down. This is well on it's way to being one of the biggest political bombshells in American history.
The thing that kills me is that Robby Mook is on record saying that the Hillary campaign knew all about the Obama surveillance of the Trump campaign.
That’s very much like how the DNC worked against the Sanders campaign. You basically have the Democrat president titling the playing field in favor of the Democrat candidate. They do that in banana republics. And now here.
btt
So when the hell is the other shoe gonna drop on this...?
How much more patience do we need??!
That’s all I ask... for now..

Or, they were tapping calls, not to Trump Tower, but in and out of the Russian embassy. That’s where the tap point might have peen, Perfectly legal
Tapers are supposedly to stop recording call if American involved, but? ????
Yes he has!
Great stuff, thanks. Assuming we did the tap and not someone like GHCQ, there must be a paper trail because the whole purpose of the FISA warrant is supposed to be to get information that will stand up to legal scrutiny. Thus, chain of evidence etc.
My guess is the Obama-Clinton axis played fast and loose with the process because they were not doing it to charge Trump or anyone with a crime, it was purely to gain information that could be used to damage or destroy him politically. They never dreamed they would end up in a position where they’d have to answer for all this because Hillary would have won.
This has more substance than anything I have read. He points to the specific statutorily required steps that had to be done and accentuates the undeniable crime of Tapping President Trump individually in innocuous phone called the the Australian Prime Minister and the Mexican President ( Absolutely no Russian threat there!!) Think about that. NSA transcripts of the actual phone calls on Trump!!! On NO warrant — for none other than political reasons completely out of the statutory requirements for release to even other agencies! much less the NYT!!
I skim a lot and miss a lot but if you care about the diabolical tapping on Trump by Obama this is a must read leading to his cogent and important conclusion as follows:
“There is no legal basis for any of this. And we have the beginnings of paper trail to begin the investigation. Find the FISA applications. Find the AG certification of a POTUS ordered surveillance if one was launched. And find the requests to NSA for the data that was clearly leaked to the Fake News Media.
There are names a plenty to begin the process if these exist.
And if they don’t exist – then someone broke some very serious laws in the Obama Administration
It’s an interesting study in political paranoia as well:
On one hand, the Clintonistas were nervous enough about Hillary losting to engage in what seems to be very risky acts to try to damage Trump, but on the other they did these things under the assumption that Hillary would win, thus making sure they were never discovered.
But if they were confident she would win, why do them?
Where do the 3 Awan bros. (IT guys) fit into all of this?
Unfortunately, under the Patriot Act he can — and both Bush and 0bama did.
This is an excellent piece of video:
