Oh Lookie Here – Report: Comey Used Jeb Bush/DNC Commissioned Dossier To Gain Trump FISA Warrant
Conservative Treehouse ^ | April 18, 2017 | Sundance

Posted on 04/19/2017 7:35:47 AM PDT by detective

Oh what a tangled web is weaved…. Apparently, the FBI used the Jeb Bush/DNC Commissioned opposition research dossier on candidate Trump as evidence to the FISA court to gain a warrant for surveillance.   Things just got more interesting.

If this report via CNN is factual in its baseline accuracy, methinks the motive for the stuttering obfuscation of FBI Director James Comey just gained some sunlight.

Washington (CNN) – The FBI last year used a dossier of allegations of Russian ties to Donald Trump’s campaign as part of the justification to win approval to secretly monitor a Trump associate, according to US officials briefed on the investigation.

This is an excellent article about Comey and the illegal surveillance of Trump.

It is clear that Comey committed perjury, that he lied under oath, when questioned by Representative Elise Stefanik.

There is also no question that the Obama administration was engaged in illegal activity.

Just put Comey in line to be fitted for a nice, fashionable, orange jump suit...along with Hillary, Obama, and the long list of DC criminals. Too many to name here.

Remember near the end of the election Hillary said something to the effect “If Trump gets elected we will all hang.”

Let’s not forget her great foresight into legal matters.

Well at least Nobody is Going to Prison and having their Family Broken up./s

The sad truth about this whole debacle is the Leadership of BOTH PARTIES is also in on it, which is why nothing will be done.

Ah. So, the only collusion going on was between the Bushes, Clintons, Barky and The FIB.

FBI Director Comey states his organization is “investigating”. Fair enough, however – not a single congresscritter asked HIM if he is the source of the unmasking or leaks.

Or.... IF HE KNOWS THE SOURCE OF THE LEAKS...

“the only collusion going on was between the Bushes, Clintons, Barky and The FIB.”

No. These people were all involved.

But so were Susan Rice, James Clapper, John Brennan and many others.

Microsoft Transparency Report Shows Massive Increase in 2016 Obama-Era FISA Orders
Conservative Treehouse ^ | April 14 2017 | Sundance / FR Posted by Whenifhow

Microsoft tries to thread the needle of transparency by telling its consuming audience as much about governmental collection of data as possible. Toward that end Microsoft releases a biannual transparency report.

Within the latest transparency release Microsoft reports in the first half of 2016 they received a massive increase in FISA orders; primarily from U.S. governmental agencies.

REPORT EXCERPT--- • “For the latest Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) data reported, Microsoft received 1,000-1,499 FISA orders seeking content disclosures affecting 12,000-12,499 accounts, compared to the 0-499 FISA orders seeking disclosure of content impacting 17,500-17,999 accounts reported for the previous period.

We received 0-499 National Security Letters in the latest reporting period, which remains unchanged from the previous period.” (link)

Why would there be such a significant spike in FISA orders during the first six months of 2016?

Due to legal compliance restrictions Microsoft cannot divulge the actual number of FISA Court Orders, only the range. As you can see there was at least a doubling of requests (Prior: 0-499 ~vs~ Now: 1,000-1,499) perhaps much more.

However, simultaneous to the increase in the number of FISA orders, the requests were on fewer accounts. So FISA using agencies were seeking more total data but on a smaller number of accounts.--SNIP--

I think Trump is giving Comey enough rope to hang himself.

Meanwhile, the world is on the brink of a civilization-ending world war. This is because the false narrative made it impossible for President Trump and his team to set up necessary lines of communication with Putin.

There will be no “civilization ending world war”.

Trump is not suicidal, and neither is Mr. Putin.

There is also no question that the Obama administration was engaged in illegal activity.

There is also no question that if this were a Republican administration engaged in these sort of antics, the mainstream media would not stop their drumbeats until the players were figuratively (possibly literally) executed.

Trey Gowdy screwed-up a-g-a-i-n.

This screw-up is infamous for caving in to Hilary at the Benghazi hearings——letting the Evil One off the dam hook for her crimes in Benghazi.

He’s trying to get back his mojo.....but he’s failing miserably.

Trying to silence Elsie Stefanik from asking Comey the right questions fully exposed his ineptitude.
