Does anyone know whether the U.S. Supreme Court plays any oversight role (ongoing or otherwise) over the FISA judges that can be researched?
I agree that someone should look at the FISA judges who approved the warrants. IIRC, the first warrant was denied and it was then appealed to some type of FISA appellate court made up of three Bill Clinton appointees!
DAMN! I LOVE MOLLIE!!
If you are ready to lie to the court, why involve the court at all? Just look at the information you want. Who would the Administration have a need to show a warrant to? NSA?
Hi AC,
That is a great point...I have not heard any mention of the possibility that British intel may have been involved in cooking up this mess.
She's the epitome of integrity.
What she said!
Oh suuuuure he is. If anything hell be feeding the fish IN the Danube.
Odd how the Bimbos at MSNBC have missed this rather glaring truth...
Yep. Steele was an MI6 agent.
Recall that Mueller enabled H Clinton’s Uranium one deal with Russia. Mueller is as dirty as any of these seditious perps.
Yep, I knew he WAS an MI6er, but was under the impression that he was not with the agency when he was conspiring with the Dimms to throw the election.
I agree with you. The very fact that Mueller has not closed down his massively tainted investigation and issued a statement clearing everyone whom the government illegally spied on is, or should be, a glaring red flag to all honest, clear-eyed observers. The fact that we have virtually the entire government and media enabling what amounts to a malicious prosecution by Mueller is disgusting, disheartening and very frightening.
It doesn’t really matter if he is still active with MI6. If he was using MI6’s Russian assets for his work with Fusion GPS and this whole charade is being made public in U.S. courts and Congressional proceedings, then he’s facing some serious legal trouble in Great Britain.
Bflr
There is no oversight of the FISC, none. No judicial, legislative or executive oversight other than appropriations I suppose? But they are salaried federal judges who likely are spending their regular time on the court so other than paper clips and staples....what is there?
That is what makes them so dangerous to the rights of American citizens. Put a stake through the heart of this monster. If FBI honestly needs to survail American citizens who are suspected of acting as foreign agents it can be done in a traditional circuit court with temporaily sealed documents that are subject to review at a later daye. All the Sicilian mobs were put away without the need for a FISA Court system.
The shocking part of this article is that only Steele seems to be targeted as the criminal! The other criminals should be named and referred for prosecution, for instance, Hillary, Obama, Comey, and the others involved.
If it were not for Rep Jordan constantly stating that ‘if this dossier were used for the FISA Warrant, it was illegal’ etc. I doubt there would have been a criminal referral without Memo, and how it shocked those who read it in the HOUSE, too.
Jon, I know you were concerned they would not prosecute the ones who need it, and let us hope that Steele is not a scapegoat.... but just the beginning of Justice for the attempted coup.
