Also want to throw this outā¦little trip down memory lane.
The letter to congressional leaders, first reported by Reuters, explains that the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court approved all of the 1,456 electronic wiretap requests that Justice Department lawyers made in 2015. It also approved all 142 of the governmentās requests to compel companies to turn over electronic records in bulk.
Is this all part of establishing a grand conspiracy that the CIA and FBI were establishing a conspiracy to āget Trumpā in order to discredit the whistle blower even though what the whistle has been blown on has been confirmed by the President?
I know what went down and what information that was manipulated.
I also mention how FISA process has been abused.
If you really were a liberalā¦it should concern you.
Little info.
It mention about the abuse of system where they used that to spy on Americans that was intended for for only to foreign intelligence.
Judge Thomas Hogan said there was no requirement that access to email and other forms of Internet communications under a controversial surveillance program be restricted only to foreign intelligence uses, he wrote in a November opinion released this week in partially redacted form.
Soā¦it is not established that there was a well ordered conspiracy between Russian leaders, Carter Page and Manafort at all.
In fact, it was not established that Page and Manafort even knew each other.
All that was established was that Page went to a very un secret meeting in July of 2016.
Soā¦the part of the dossier about Page being trueā¦is something that you will bring up again in future posts, I assume.
Do you understand the concern here. The first warrant was turned down until they made Russian Dossier driving factor in getting the warrant passed.
And continued using it to get 3 additional warrants.
Once the warrant is issued then they can legally search their date going back years if necessary. So all the date that Page had with Trump campaign was then availableā¦and his connections date.
This is oldie but goodie info from NPR.
Since it was revealed recently that the National Security Agency puts the phone records of every American into a database, the Obama administration has assured the nation that such records are rarely searched and, when they are, officials target only suspected international terrorists.
And thus the reason for all unmasking that was done in last 6 months of Obama administration.
They had no evidence that Page was involved. Just his past history of working with Russianā¦who BTW had keep FBI informed and sometimes offered his service.
If Trump thinks China is interfering with our election would it be alright for Trump to spy on anyone in Warren campaign that had ties or past dealings with China without any concrete evidences?
If it was done in the legal and proper mannerā¦ of course I would be fine with that.
Rememberā¦ we didnāt know any of this was happening until after the election.
This is why I think that the President was leaning on Ukraine to open an investigation because of a foreign power does it, he can talk about it publicly.
Spying on Americans is illegalā¦just because they found a loophole to circumvent the laws doesnāt make it legal.
Specially for political purpose. This is our goverment we are talking aboutā¦a goverment that must remain politically neutral at all times. When it doesnāt thatās when problem arises.
