FBI’s Wray tells FISA court Bureau ‘deeply regrets’ failures in Carter Page case

FBI Director Christopher Wray told the federal surveillance court in a letter Friday that he “deeply regrets” the bureau’s many errors in the process to obtain surveillance warrants on former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.

“The FBI has the utmost respect for this Court, and deeply regrets the errors and omissions identified by the OIG,” Wray wrote in a letter to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC).

A judge on the FISC ordered the FBI on Dec. 17 to respond by Friday with a roadmap on how the bureau plans to address the problems identified in a Justice Department inspector general’s (IG) report regarding applications for warrants to wiretap Page.

The IG report, released on Dec. 9, identified 17 errors and omissions that the FBI made in its Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) applications against Page. The report said FBI agents withheld information that undercut the bureau’s suspicion that Page worked as an agent of Russia while he served on the Trump team. Agents also failed to disclose information that raised questions about the credibility and motives of Christopher Steele, a former British spy Democrats hired to investigate President Donald Trump.

The FBI relied heavily on Steele’s infamous dossier in the Page FISA applications.

Wray, who took over the FBI more than a month after the fourth and final Page FISA had been approved, said that one remedy he plans to implement will be to use the Page FISA as a case study in training sessions that FBI personnel will be required to undergo.

“FBI personnel will be instructed on the errors and omissions that were made in the Carter Page FISA applications and associated processes,” Wray said.

yea sadly that’s where it goes, what it the saddest to me is that on this course of no law we will be further fleeced until a generation later communism / soros land sounds good ... you get a potato a day..

Not sure what is saddest, the fact that it is happening or the USA has decided to die a whimpering death in lieu of trying to turn it around.. This will not happen unless main players are hung/jailed for life..the game is done...nothing left but guillotines theirs or ours, already at theaters near you

Ultimately President Trump is in charge of the DOJ.

L


Obviously, he is not. It is not a coincidence that POTUS and the country have been betrayed time and again by Senate confirmed executive branch positions.

And sadly, I agree with you.

The one nation that is standing in the way of Global Tyranny is the United States.

If the Rule of Law is finished, we are done as a nation.

This is the way it will be. Slaves and masters.

Then I heard what sounded like a voice among the four living creatures, saying, "Two pounds of wheat for a day's wages, and six pounds of barley for a day's wages, and do not damage the oil and the wine!"

Revelation 6:6

And Hannity has been kissing the a$$ of the "good rank and file men and women of the greatest law enforcement agency this world has ever known" for 3 years.

The FISA court let them lie. They’re all in on this.

True.

It's still a felony to lie to the FISA court.

And they lied.

It's open and shut.

So why hasn't Barr ordered arrests and prosecutions?

Everyone on the planet knows what they did was illegal - except FBI employees? They need training.

They need incarceration.

We never eradicated the Demoncrats greatest weapon.

The rigging of the machines, and the quantum balloting count rigging was never solved.

Trump had a Vote Fraud Commission set up, with Pence as the head.

They requested the voting rolls from the states, and the Democrat controlled states simply refused to comply. Pence and his commission gave up and disbanded.

If Trump is win in 2020, something drastic has to happen to bring these criminals to justice.

...whixh is why it took over 3 years to confess what they de-lied about that it never happened. Personally Fay Wray, shove your apology up your ass and explain why you and your department went out of your way to deny and cover it up!

Robert Mueller was supposed to fix this when he was the FBI Director. He did not, and year later became Special Prosecutor. This was completely unethical, since he was in a position to cover his own neglect of his responsibilities.

Many on FR think Comey is the dirtiest FBI director. As far as I'm concerned, that title goes to Robert Mueller.
