But no one in the FIB will be punished for the violations uncovered.

Instead the FIB Gestapo will be given a green light to continue their jackboot tactics against patriotic Americans and ignore the crimes of Demonicrat/leftist insurrectionists.

Results in Brief

The FBI’s Woods Procedures are designed to ensure FISA applications are “scrupulously accurate” and require agents to document support for all factual assertions contained in them. However, our audit found numerous instances where this did not occur. In March 2020, we issued a Management Advisory Memorandum (MAM) to report that our audit had identified Woods Procedures non-compliance in all 29 FISA applications we reviewed, which were approved by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) between fiscal years 2015 and 2019. DOJ thereafter notified the FISC of 209 errors in those applications, 4 of which DOJ deemed material. Our further audit work identified over 200 additional instances of Woods Procedures non- compliance—where Woods Files did not contain adequate supporting documentation for statements in the 29 applications—although the FBI and NSD subsequently confirmed the existence of available support elsewhere. We also identified at least 183 FISA applications for which the required Woods File was missing or incomplete.

To my knowlege no one has ever been prosecuted for non-compliance with “procedures.” I would posit there is, purposely, no legal code wherewith to prosecute those who have assumed power over the common citizen.

Not long ago, I would have said that your attitude is misdirected and unreasonable; however, recent developments have demonstrated otherwise.
Based on governmental actions regarding AntiFa riots, racial divide, cancel culture, *vaxxine* mandates, lockdowns, and mandatory masking,
along with an "Open Border" during a pandemic, I agree with your analysis of governmental agencies and its' partisan politics.
It appears that the respective govt. agencies have taken up the Taliban refrain of :" Death to America", and the same for American values of equal justice.

A cop or deputy sheriff on state or local level goes to federal prison for this kind of stuff. But when the folks that oversee the process commit the same crimes……NOTHING.

Just based on his nonsense comments about the FBI, how any human still watches Hannity is beyond understanding.

I quit watching Hannity years ago, he’s been carrying the water of Assistant Democrats as they assist the Democrats to destroy America as Hannity pretends to oppose them same as his Bush League Republican buddies.

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

Imo, the safer assumption is that no one’s allowed anywhere near a position on the FISA unless fully vetted as completely compliant with whatever corruption is required of them.

I think you are correct.

John Roberts is in charge of the FISA court and we all know he is corrupt.

Bingo…….

And anyone that brags about being a marksman, shooting since they were a young kid and doesn’t know that difference between a magazine and a clip should automatically be dismissed as an idiot.

Just let any of us produce sworn affidavits to a Federal Court with this kind of chicanery, deception, and misinformation and then imagine how many years we would get in prison.

None of us would ever see the light of day again.
