Nunes: FBI Failed To Include ‘Exculpatory’ Evidence In Carter Page FISAs
The Daily Caller ^ | 08/07/2018 | Chuck Ross

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes claims that the FBI and Justice Department omitted ‘exculpatory evidence’ on Carter Page in spy applications.

Nunes is investigating the FBI and DOJ for possible FISA abuse.

The Republican also claims that DOJ official Bruce Ohr will become ‘more and more important’ to his investigation.

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes claimed Monday that the FBI and Justice Department failed to include exculpatory evidence in surveillance warrant applications against former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.

“There is exculpatory evidence that we have seen, of classified documents that need to be declassified,” Nunes said in an interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity. “Exculpatory in nature in what way? Exculpatory in what way?” Hannity asked.

“In that the Carter Page FISA when the judges should have been presented with this exculpatory evidence that the FBI and DOJ had,” Nunes replied.

“The big picture—The O’muslim regime was a treason regime. We’ve had a massive conspiracy of high treason-—So many agencies were corrupted and turned into an enemy of the people under these marxists, maoists and muslims that controlled the executive branch for 8 years. They(Obama, Hillary, and our corrupt stasi state) tried to thwart the candidacy of Donald Trump and are currently trying to overthrow President Trump through the mueller coup.”

I’ve pretty much given up thinking anyone is going pay for this, the left controls the media and the media doesn’t report this stuff. Now social media is shutting everything down.

Nothing short of treason trials and hangings on the national mall will restore the rule of law.

I agree. And putting that slimy little weasel Wray in charge of the FBI was ANOTHER serious mistake. Does anyone who’s seen this guy’s testimony in front of Congress believe he gives a rat’s ass about clearing up the misdeeds and reputation of the FBI (as opposed to covering it up?). I don’t.

Sessions was the other big mistake - and not just because of the incredibly ineffectual jack-ass that he turned out to be (except for the enemies of the administration - I guess he’s not ineffectual for THEM). The guy just doesn’t have the balls to go after the people who needed to be brought to justice, and that should have been obvious from day one (the fact that he’s 107 years old and couldn’t intimidate a butterfly should have been the President’s first clue).

True...very demoralizing. The left are going to pull out all the stops in this upcoming election with voter fraud, etc. The DOJ is in the hands of the left thanks to Jeff Sessions...The mueller coup is going full steam ahead thanks to Jeff Sessions.

It’s sickening.

“Sessions was the other big mistake -”

Has that rat bastard said anything about that Chinese spy working for Feinstein for 20 years?

Time line: Two weeks before election POTUS declassifies all related documents.

One week after election and Republicans maintain control of house and pick up 4 seats in the Senate.

Two weeks after the election POTUS fires Jeff Sessions and appoints an acting AG like Giuliani. Giuliani fires Rosenstein.

Three weeks after election Giuliani stands up a Grand Jury and assigns a hand picked DOJ Prosecutor to bring charges against Comey, Clinton, Ohr, Mueller, Page, Strzok, et el under the RICO Act.

One month after the election Trump continues to drain the swamp and proceeds to "Make America Great Again".

Two years after the election the criminal class above is sentenced to prison and Trump wins second term.

How do you like me so far? :-)

Sure, legally they are probably only compelled to produce that evidence for discovery.

However, if they had verified evidence in their possession that conflicted with the unverified contents of the dossier that they were using as basis for their warrant, and they didn’t disclose that to the judge... isn’t that the same as lying to the judge? That is certainly perjury, at the least.

Well we know that is never happening. The best we can hope for is that a few minor flunkies lose their jobs and maybe... just maybe do something like 6 months in jail. They’ll probably still keep most of their government pensions when they get out too.

It’s LONG past time some of these people were taken to account and this witch hunt ended.

******************

Its also long past the time when the members of the subservise cabal should have had their security clearances taken away. We were led to believe this would happen, but this too hasn’t been done and probably won’t be.

The Deep State are getting away with not being punished or held to account. Its sickening. Trump’s reluctance to take control of his own executive branch is very disconcerting.

I can’t stand when Hannity’s does that. Nunez was about to give out some good info when “boom” Shawn get him off track with his annoying interruptions.

It wouldn’t surprise me that there is a current FISA warrant to monitor President Trump, signed by Rosenstein.

It might explain why Trump had the Oval Office remodeled.

Exculpatory evidence is part of the “whole truth, nothing but the truth”. You can’t just leave something out.

A secret court that denies due process to citizens is UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
