Attkisson: ‘FBI FISA abuses routine’ before spying on Trump even began
The National Sentinel ^ | 5/20/19 | Jon Dougherty

Posted on 05/20/2019 1:36:45 PM PDT by SleeperCatcher

During an appearance on Mike Huckabee’s Saturday night program on the TNT network, former CBS News ace investigative reporter Sharyl Attkisson discussed how she was spied upon by the Obama regime and how deep state espionage against the Trump campaign was based on abject fear of what the president-to-be was promising.

Initially, Attkisson — who exposed this in her blockbuster book, “Stonewalled: My Fight for Truth Against the Forces of Obstruction, Intimidation, and Harassment in Obama’s Washington” — talked about how she, with the help of cyber-forensic allies, discovered while working for CBS that all of her computers and devices had been infiltrated with government (intelligence agency) spyware.

In addition, Attkisson said that cyber-forensic experts discovered a classified document that had been placed on her computer by someone in the U.S. intelligence community which she believes was planted to give the Obama regime an excuse to go after her for her investigative reporting on a variety of scandals including the “Fast and Furious” gun-walking operation.

“But Obama said his administration was scandal free?”

You have to remember that :

God, please help President Trump and keep him safe.

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

Trump can help himself by declassifying and releasing the FISA docs. He has promised to do it — several times — but yet never does. Just saying.

I’d bet these FISA judges are in on the deep state conspiracy.

Julian Assange, too.
He knows he did not get the DNC e-mails from the Russians.

The UN partition resolution was adopted in November 1947. The British had announced they were ending their mandate as of May 15, 1948. Before then fighting had broken out between the Jews and Arabs in the territory of the Palestine Mandate. I think the difference after May 15th was the involvement of the Arab states like Egypt and Transjordan (I don't think their forces were actively fighting inside Palestine before May 15th but I could be wrong). I wasn't alive at the time but once did some reading in weekly news magazines in a library to see how they covered the story.

Truman indeed announced his recognition of Israel about 15 minutes after the Israeli declaration of independence. Stalin also recognized Israel immediately. But Tito sent a small number of Yugoslav Muslims to fight on the Arab side.

The Deep State has been abusing power for many decades. It is sad so few were paying attention.

Angle-American jurisprudencs is based on adversary system of justice. Plaintiff vs. Defendant, State vs. Accused.

Before FISA Court there is no one sticking up for the law, Constitution or accused (surveillance target), EXCEPT the Court. They must insist on overwhelming probable cause, and not accept abjure allegations which they blythely rubber stamp.

There has been too much abuse. Must abandon FISA totally. Force the government to go back to search warrants based on proven probable cause before the whole array of federal judged (not just the comfy critters who engage friends like Page and Strukz who bragged about being pals with FISA judges.)

FISA needs to go !!!

When the FISA courts were first instituted I was against them 100%. The potential for abuse against citizens was obvious and it has come to be a fact.

Maybe. There is also the matter of open investigations.

Like you, I’m skeptical, but it may well be the cause for delay.
