Senate Impeachment Trial LIVE - day 5
My saturday morning cartoons have been replaced by a farce.
IIRC it is the Chief Justices job.
I am in CA. if it is a local decision then I am REALLY SURPRISED!!!
Chief Justice of the SCOTUS, in this case Roberts, appoints FISA court judges.
Of the 11 FISA court appointed judges, 10 of them were appointed by Obama, including the corrupt Rudolph Contreras that granted the FISA warrant after another judge rejected it. He is also the same judge who had to recuse himself days after the Michael Flynn plea.
And no Senate confirmation required, IIRC.
The FISA court needs to be dissolved.
This is yet another inconvenient fact that the media and Democrats don’t want to discuss. The entire FISA court basically was full of Obama appointees. The one Trump apoointee to the FISA court also replaced an Obama appointee named Susan Webber Wright who’s term expired May of 2016.
The media has carried lies from Schiff and Nadler and sold them as the truth. A political opinion is not the truth.
Yes, the judges were appointed by the President but to be put on the FISA court the CJ does that.
He does. It's a part time job for persons already confirmed by the senate and appointed as federal judges, generally district courts.
50 USC 1803 - Designation of judges
It's a make-work sham. Likely a billion dollars a year when all done. And it does ZERO to curtail snooping.
Sort of like making a law that shooting people or possessing guns is banned only affects the honest folks. The government has demonstrated, repeatedly, over decades, that it is not honest about how much it snoops.
Judges on the FISA courts are currently serving federal judges who are appointed to seven year terms on the FISA court by the Chief Justice without a confirmation process.
Now I am really confused Different sources. Different answer.
“In defense of the corrupt, lying Judge who imposed
the ObamaCARE tax against Americans ... what was he to do with the DNC/DS threatening to expose HOW he got his children, and to put ‘his head on a pike’?”
He SHOULD have had the balls the Founding Fathers had, and done the right thing. They sacrificed families and fortunes. Why is it so hard to do the right thing?
Makes sense. I found conflicting info.
The President’s team is awesome!
But am I the only one who wished they were straight on facing the camera ........making eye contact with us ......rather than looking down!
This Philbin guy is a snooze.
Philbin is DESTROYING the House’s rationale for issuing subpoenas WITHOUT first having had a vote on impeachment.
“...what was he (Judge Roberts) to do with the DNC/DS threatening to expose HOW he got his children, and to put “his head on a pike”?”
Yes, there is THAT in play! Roberts is one highly-conflicted man.
Good God, our US gov is one huge cesspool...
He is addressing the Senators, which is the jury, so that makes sense.
Has Schiff or any of the House managers ever argued cases before the Supreme Court? What a difference in presentation.
Not if your paying attention to what he’s saying.....
