The Obama White House used the most sensitive intrusive surveillance systems of the NSA to spy on Americans. A ruling by FISA Court Presiding Judge Rosemary Collyer finds that 85% of NSA database requests under FISA section 702 authority at the DOJ were illegal or noncompliant. Surveillance systems, including PRISM, spying on hundreds if not thousands of Americans. Including Donald Trump and those around him. (United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court of Review Amicus Brief)
Moreover, Collyer finds, that the Department of Justice showed an appalling “lack of institutional candor”.
FISA Judge Collyer rules illegal spying occurred
In April 2016 Judge Collyer found that unwarranted and illegal surveillance of American citizens was done by the highest reaches of the Obama Administration for at least 4 years, starting in 2012. (Secret court rebukes NSA for 5-year illegal surveillance of U.S. citizens – MAY 26, 2017 ). Moreover, James Comey did allow for limitless continuous, unlawful, and warrantless access by three Federal contractors. (Institutional Lack of Candor – FISA Violations January 24, 2018).
That those contractors had access to over 40000 searches of the NSA programs and databases during that 48-month period of time.
Out of approximately 5000 searches of the NSA database from October 2016 to April of 2017 in the National Security Division of the DOJ, 4250 of them were deemed illegal or non-compliant by the Presiding Judge of the FISA court.
That its targets were American citizens. Prominent Republicans. That the abuse was continuous, frequently entering the same person’s name over a protracted period of time.
Collyer ruled that this information was shared and disseminated unlawfully to John Brennan and James Clapper. Furthermore, information was disseminated within the Obama administration in violation of the 4th amendment.

“Scandal-free Presidency,” eh?
In some respects this is much bigger than the coup attempt on the presidency.
All the same players too.
#HangThemAll
OK, so what will be done about it—IF TRUE? Nothing.
Ineligible usurpers have no need or desire to comply with laws.
Any laws.
But Joe Biden told me so.
All FISA Judges are Obama appointees?
Chief Justice Roberts, compromised?
X-FBI Comey used Grand Jurys?
When did Obama team decide to even request FISA Warrants?
.... Well ... That's our interpretation of the events .... Once the spin doctors get a hold of the stories coming out and create an alternate perception ... the public will believe something else ....
.... After all .... Perception is reality ....
And So?
This article gave me chills. Many have died for this illegal spying campaign. I pray someone is held accountable.
When did Obama team decide to even request FISA ?
I think it was the day after a judge ruled that Bush’s spying on incoming foreign telephone calls was constitutional.
As I remember it was when Obama was first inauguration
We know that Udumbo weaponized the IRS against political opponents. Why would anyone think he wouldn’t do the same thing with the FBI and CIA?
Finds? How about FOUND? In 2016. And has been extensively reported by CTH and others since. Which is no doubt where this “reporter” “learns” of it. But doesn’t cite them. Clickbait for the uninformed.
Old America - Everyone must obey The Law
