Chris Wray told us we can sleep well at night because of the FBI’s so-called FISA reforms.

But it just keeps getting worse. -Rep. Jim Jordan

"Director Wray has made clear, the errors described in the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court’s opinion are completely unacceptable," a senior FBI official"

Prior criminal activity left unpunished, has consequences. And not just the disingenuous bullShit that comes out of the mouth of Wray. The whole DOJ and FBI needs to be flushed into the sewer of history.

When the courts allowed perjury and false affidavits to be presented to the courts for political gain and the courts did nothing, the courts ceded any authority or control over to corrupt career bureaucrats. The courts have to be flushed as well.

And tonight we learn that they posted FBI agents into school parking lots to take down the license plates of concerned parents attending school board meetings. It is obvious they have too much funding, far too many personnel and need to be pruned dramatically in their budget. NO money for a new FBI building in the suburbs, let them preside over the appropriate prison-like structure in downtown DC; NO money for a private jet for Christopher Wray; NO money for meddling in our elections.

The Durham Report revealed that the FBI dropped at least four open criminal investigations into the Clintons.

But had no problem at all pushing a fake dossier to take down Trump.

What happened to equal justice under the law? - Rep. Jim Jordan

I guess he means it’s unacceptable that the court issued an opinion that the FBI had done anything improper and it was a big error on the court’s part (six ways from Sunday, and all that).

Violating constitutional rights 278,000 times. How about if someone in the FBI serve 6 months in prison for each offense.

I maintain the FBI had to be using NSA tech expressly forbidden to be used on U.S. citizens on U.S. citizens to track down and imprison the J-6th protesters at phenomenal speed.

Perversely/inversely those protesters languish in medieval conditions because the threat of career ruination hovers like the Sword of Damocles over any competent attorney wanting to defend them. Tag line.

At a minimum they should find which people they targeted and file a massive class action.

That’s the thing about Patriot Act after 9/11. The government under George W. Bush was benevolent. Unfortunately, that’s not the case with Biden Administration.

That is all the FIB does. The 4th Amendment is thirsty.

No it wasn't, and what a coqinke dink that the “patriot act” was in the hopper right before 911.

Notice how they change out the word “Illegally” to “improperly”.

I hope that no one is clicking on the link and giving hits to fox news.

Our democratic Republic is no longer a fact. At present we a a quasi Fascist nation hell bent on socialist Marxism. We have arrived at this sad state via 5 entities.

1. A corrupt Judiciary and the FBI is part of the Judiciary.
2. A corrupt Legislature that is for sale to the highest bidder.
3. A corrupt executive branch of which Biden is corrupter in chief.
4. A corrupt media whom have special privileges under law. These privileges are constitutional guarantees so they can report the truth. They do not report the truth.
5. A corrupt big business class that is leftist in ideology and thrives on crony capitalism afforded them by the above four corruptions listed.

It takes the first four working in tandem to extinguish our democratic republic. If only one is not corrupt the democratic republic will stand.

I have lived and worked in third world nations of corruption. I have seen this before. Today we are close to the cusp of tyranny.

You are precisely correct. I was very much against the Patriot Act when first proposed. I recognized that it had the ability to do much more harm than good. I was right.

You are harsh in your sentencing suggestions. I would suggest only one day for each of those 278,000 times. Thus my kind sentence would be only 761 years. However, I have an alternative suggestion of which I am most serious. 1 year in Angola prison in Louisiana but they are required to were a jacket that says, FBI and DEA and serve in the general population.

In retrospect, we overreacted just to take out a bunch of goat humpers hiding in a cave. Now we’re stuck with some form of the Ministry for State Security like the Stasi or the KGB and we’re going to be stuck with it.
