We Now Know: The Kris Cross
Powerline ^ | 01/11/2020 | Scott Johnson

Posted on 01/12/2020 7:10:43 AM PST by LucienCA13

David Kris served as Assistant Attorney General for the Department of Justice under President Obama and Attorney General Holder. He drew on his prestige as a former senior official in the Department of Justice to disparage Rep. Devin Nunes in his exposure of the FBI’s misconduct in the Russia haox and assure anyone who would listen to him that all was in order. He is an apologist for FBI misconduct who gives the Department of Justice Inspector General report on the FBI’s FISA misconduct the stupidly credulous reading that absolves the FBI of political bias in the matter.

Who better than Kris to serve as amicus curiae to the FISA court to help it assess the government’s response to Judge Collyer’s December 17 order. That is what new FISA court presiding judge James Baosberg did late yesterday afteroon in this order. As Jack Paar used to say, I kid you not.

Well, I’m no friend of the court. My reaction is that the FISA court has to go. (Go to the linked article to see tweets)

Because Roberts assigned the Obama judge who, PREDICTABLY, picked Kris in turn. The fish rots from the head.

GWB may have appointed Roberts, but Roberts answers to Obama.

Always remember that if Hillary had been elected all this would be in place and stronger than ever.

Trump must be reelected and clean out the entire top of the DOJ and Intelligence Communities.

HRC is STILL running DOJ.

In 1997 she swiped 900 FBI files on everybody in DC.She updated those from 2009-2013.

Everybody’s dirt in DC collectively outweighs ALL her and Bills baggage

Just close the damn FISA court down already. Stop funding it. Abolish it. Whatever it takes. We want more transparency, not more shenanigans.

I agree 100%. It is a miracle of God that we have Trump otherwise America as we knew it would be lost forever. We now need to keep the pressure on to clean out these vermin and squash any remaining bits left.

GWB may have appointed Roberts, but Roberts answers to Obama.

Trump made his money in Manhattan real estate. He's likely encountered more lethal and slimy hombres than any pol in DC.

Consider this speculative (but plausible) scenario:

Newly-elected Trump calls Roberts to a meeting with nobody but the two of them in a clean room. Trump tells CJOTSC that in his business dealings, it's not unusual for people to blackmail others.

Trump says he suspects someone is holding something over CJOTSC and, just like in NYC, he won't stand for such a thing. He asks CJOTSC to look at 20 names on the piece of paper in front of him, and to point to THE one that may be compromising him.

CJOTSC, sensing a way out, points to the name. POTUS smiles, shakes the hand of CJOTSC, and says "let me handle this. From now on, rule independently."

Far fetched? Maybe. Impossible? Yes...like it was impossible for Trump to be elected, to walk into the DMZ, and turn the economy around.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

wouldn't surprise me if hildabeast “contractors” crowdstrike & fusion GPS had a rubber stamp with “samantha powers” name on it that they used to unmask hundreds of of FISA 702’s every day while she was SOS.

btw, what ever happened to that $6bb that went missing from the State Dept “contractors fund” on hildabeast watch??

bonus question: speaking of hildabeast, who ended up with that $7bb in Libyan GOLD end up after gaddafi was assassinated?
