WASHINGTON, DC: Southeastern Legal Foundation filed a Motion for Publication of Records with the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) on behalf of award-winning investigative reporter John Solomon and itself, seeking rulings, orders and opinions issued by the Court finding any of the attorneys associated with the Carter Page FISA applications violated rules of the Court or rules governing professional conduct by attorneys.
Southeastern Legal Foundation successfully pursued Bar sanctions against sitting President Bill Clinton, ultimately resulting in the surrender of his law license on the last day in office and disbarment by the U.S. Supreme Court (1998-2001) as part of the Agreed Order of Discipline from Independent Counsel Robert Ray.

"We face a serious crisis of public confidence in our judicial system. Our nation's highest law enforcement officers and government attorneys are suspected of lying, misleading and withholding information from the FISC in order to obtain permission to conduct surveillance on U.S. citizen Carter Page," said Todd Young, SLF executive director. "If true, even in part, one of the most profound ways to help re-establish public trust in the rule of law is to hold these attorneys professionally and publicly accountable for their alleged grievous violations of the law and public trust."

Roberts is DIRTY!
I STILL think that Carter Page is/was an FBI asset, put into the campaign to SPY.
Do you think he was unwitting or in on it?
Either way, do you think Barr will find out?
Carter Page is the dog that didn't bite!! There was NO indictment for him!
I thought it was a couple of years ago.
Liberal sycophants are used to lying to judges. They lied to Federal courts across the land the day they first defended Obozo against the charge he was not Constitutionally eligible to be president. Remember, they are the government so they knew the answer to the question from the get go. Those that did not know, had a duty to first determine the answer to the question before proceeding in court. Yet, they went into court time and time again, defensed the phony imposter, and straight up lied to the court that he was eligible to be president. Where are these lying bags of excrement today? I bet they are hiding out somewhere in the bowls of government. Their names are known, they signed the court briefs. As I see it. this subterfuge amounts to conspiracy or accessory to treason. The least that should happen to them is that they should be banished from the legal profession for life, but, alas, nothing has happened. that I’m aware of. It’s the Deep State taking care of its own.
I would guess the FISA Judges took the FBI affiants at their word. A FBI agent is presenting an application for search warrant or wire tap to the judge ex parte, there is only one side presented. The judge is relying on the word of that agent that everything contained in the application is true (to the best of the applicants ability). If the affiant lies to the judge, there are remedies for that act.
I am thinking the FISA Court is waiting to hear the outcome of the IG’s report before they do anything. It just makes sense. Right now, there are rumors and speculation about what the FBI did to obtain the warrants against Carter Paige and others. The IG report will contain fact. I am betting that once the report is released, you’ll see a lot of activity by the court to address the abuse. This isn’t the first time the court has been duped by the FBI, it was just a couple of years ago the court took the agency to task for alleged abuses of the FISA process.
Believe me, there is nothing worse than a pissed-off judge. Most don’t like to be lied to. I’ve seen attorneys dressed down in open court and found in contempt by judges. It is not a pleasant experience.
The FISA judges know the spotlight is on them. I will wager once the report is released the fraud on the court WILL be addressed and there may be a few high-profile booking photos shot in Washington afterwards.

HUH?

Headline of the story:
“Bombshell: Carter Page Revealed To Be FBI Informant On DNC Payroll”
As far as I can see, the headline is not supported in the story, but he was an FBI informant against the Russians in 2013.
Your first paragraph is 100% correct. But with the Feds, US Attorney’s are also present. I did work with the DEA and FBI when I was cop and on occasion they had AUSAs on the street with them, sometimes armed, that were there to provide counsel and advice as situations came up, ie...we grabbed a guy and he wanted to flip right then and there. The warrant application process for a Fed is a longer, more drawn out process than local cops. That’s why they have so many Task Forces. They can get a detective to write a warrant on the hood of car, knock on the door to a judge’s house at 2am and get a paper signed. Then the Feds will “assist” the local police.
So, I’m wondering if Page, Baker, or some other unnamed AUSA or staff lawyer helped draft and present the affidavits to FISC.
As for remedies....Perjury & Violation of Oath of Office...just to start. Going forward they’re looking at other charges and eventually civil suits on both an agency and personal level.
And I have my fingers crossed that your second paragraph, if the IG report is as bad as they’re building it up and the release of documents show how bad this is/was, comes to fruition. Obviously you’ve been in courtrooms. Judges have the ability to be drop the hammer on folks if they want to.
But, a lingering question for me is, what if they’re in on it? That one judge, who is friends with McCabe, seemed to duck out the spotlight rather quickly when the text messages started getting released. And being the snakes that they are, I think at least of few of them have information tucked away in the hopes that it could be a, get out of jail free card.
To think....they all thought she would win, we’d never know anything and they’d get away with all of it. Imagine what they’d be capable of when the target isn’t the President of the United States.
DUH!! That’s why I said I think Carter Page was an FBI INFORMANT put on the TRUMP CAMPAIGN!!
Having been involved with AUSA’s and Task Forces myself, it is not unusual to make a presentation to the AUSA assigned to the Task Force to help draft the warrant. Usually, there is enough of a “personal/professional” relationship the attorney relies on the agent to be a straight shooter.
In this case, since it looks like everything was based out of FBI headquarters as opposed to a field office, you are dealing with more political appointees and the proverbial ass-kissers who are assigned to desk jobs in the bureau. I would imagine the attitude is to “go along to get along”.
As for Judge Contraras, I would bet Strzok and the Judge go back many years and many cases. They obviously socialize in the same circles. Strzok used that relationship to “grease the skids” knowing his personal relationship with the Judge could allow him to BS any shortcomings in the affidavit. I can’t see Contraras as being a willing participant in this as he has way too much to lose. (Think former cases overturned because of misconduct.)
I am hoping the cancer isn’t so deep that it can’t be excised. Giving Barr the scalpel is a start in the right direction. I am confident he will root out the bad actors in the DOJ. My concern is the performance of Wray at the FBI has been less than stellar. He has had sufficient time to identify those involved. Maybe he is waiting on the IG report as well to start housecleaning.
If the IG report is damning, and Barr, Wray and the FISA Judges are truly interested in cleaning up this mess, the dominoes will fall quickly. Otherwise...welcome to another addition of Washington Kabuki Theatre.
I wonder if the dims can read this and come to know that this is what you do when you accuse someone of wrongdoing.
You get facts, statements, writings, conversations all together and then YOU HAVE A CASE.
Getting in front of a camera and repeating over and over that President Trump has committed crimes JUST DOESN’T MAKE IT.”
Is there any remote possibility that the Left understands the difference?
