the FISA judge may even preempt Sessions, who seems a bit distracted by perhaps making a new DARE poster, by telling those clowns who signed off on the application to appear before him FORTHWITH to explain why he was “misled”.

If the judge is a Clinton or Obama appointee, don't count on it. The judge might even have been in on the scheme!

Right. My question was: did the FISA court just rubber stamp the renewal every time they were asked to renew it, or did they ever ask (as required when granting these things) “Do you have a separate finding of probable cause for the renewal?”

Is the approving FISA judge known to the public?
