:"The Flynn docs likely are a product of surveillance on him during the campaign; and more specifically, exoneration evidence during the transition period after the election.
However, declassifying those documents means revealing how that exculpatory documentation was obtained. Now we are approaching the FISA-702 electronic surveillance process. See the issue?
The intelligence community cannot, hell, will not, put part of their critical intelligence gathering system at risk simply to provide exculpatory information.
Ask yourself this rather complex question: There has been a great deal of talk about demanding that President Trump declassify a specific set of documents that swirl around spygate
. but have you ever noticed that no-one, not once, not a single official, has ever even discussed the need to declassify the Collyer FISA report?"
Aside from the fact Solomon cites no evidence for is his contention, the FISA 702 process is not the issue.
The issue is that the US Intel agencies go far, far beyond 702 legal authority and collect ALL electronic communication, domestic and foreign.
And in doing so, all involved are committing felonies. Felonies that carry severe penalties.
Of course, there are many statists here on FR that are OK with that and see it as necessary to protect the nation.
I see it as felonious conduct against the American people and would, literally, hang each and every person involved.
