AG Barr in an interview with Martha McCallum stated that FISA Court should stay and that he is happy with Wray’s progress in crafting “solutions”.
Yeah, I saw that. The courts themselves are not under DOJ purview anyway. The FBI, of course, is and I have no idea if Wray can be trusted to set it straight. As I see it there is no other way, other than for management to select submittals occasionally, perhaps sometimes randomly and go over them with a fine tooth comb. Even more important discipline anyone who is caught screwing up. The severity of the discipline should depend on the seriousness of the screw up, with termination always an option for the dirty cops.
The courts are another matter. If judges are not ensuring that the submittals are thorough and accurate, they are failing to do their jobs and should be removed.
I’m not at all confident any of this will happen. When it comes to government employees it’s always “justice for thee, but not for me.”
It sucks
