BREAKING: FISA Abuse Report Is ‘Lengthy’ And Has ‘Few’ Redactions, DOJ Watchdog Tells Congress
Daily Caller ^ | 10/24/2019 | chuck ross

The Justice Department inspector general’s report on possible FBI abuse of the foreign surveillance process is “lengthy,” and is likely to be made public with “few” redactions, the inspector general told lawmakers Thursday, according to a letter obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

Michael Horowitz, the inspector general, informed Republicans and Democrats on four congressional committees with a status update on the report, which will detail an investigation into whether the FBI complied with laws and policies in applications for Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrants against Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.

Republicans have anticipated the report for months, with many speculating that it will show that the FBI misled the FISA court by relying heavily on the unverified Steele dossier to spy on Page.

Horowitz’s description of the report is likely to please Republicans, in that it suggested most of the information that the watchdog uncovered will be made public.

“Given that our draft report is lengthy, and concerns sensitive national security and law enforcement matters, we understood that it would take the Department and the FBI some time to work through and appropriately mark the entire report,” Horowitz said in the letter.

Horowitz, an Obama appointee, said the process is “nearing completion,” and that his office is working “constructively” with the Justice Department and FBI.

“The goal from my standpoint is to make as much of our report public as possible,” said Horowitz, adding that he anticipates the final report “will be released publicly with few redactions.”

I thought that you were just busy and not a clueless dolt who doesn’t understand what it takes to prevent a deep state coup d’etat. I was wrong. My apologies, please continue.

There is a ‘rumor’ that one of those named in the report, is one Adam Schiff.

He helped to propagate the Russia hoax and even mentioned that there was irrefutable evidence that would lead to the impeachment of Trump. He’s a big part of the deep-state, which is why he’s so adamant about getting Trump on something, even on fabricated evidence and even on non-impeachable actions.

Adam Schiff will be doing the perp-walk, soon.

Unless his name is redacted and we wont be allowed to know his name.

This!!! Is what Schiff was trying to get in front of...

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

Tonight’s news on Durham’s criminal investigation, coming on the heels of Horowitz’s announcement of the impending release of the FISA report, cannot be coincidental.

The Dems know that Crossfire Hurricane is now heading toward them and is a Cat 5 storm.

It could contain overwhelming evidence of first degree murder and the Clinton/Obama holdovers in the DOJ would still decline to prosecute.

It goes to the DOJ and the FBI for redacting.

That gives me no confidence.

If the GOP wants a happy holiday season, they better bear down and fight for our President.
Next time they storm a secret commie trial they should bring bats.
