Then there are all those vacations with friends in Malta.


I believe it was one male. Same guy every year sans family. I never heard if they continued their summer sun and fun jaunts to the med after the story broke.

IIRC there was at least one picture of more than one fit male who took these annual jaunts.

Was this judge involved in any case involving the president, Glynn, or Russia?

The one that is stepping down, Susan Collyer? You might say so. She signed off on at least one of the four FISA warrants against Carter Page.

Levin presented her with a legal filing about taking action on the fraud presented to her court. She responded with lies.

Roberts is one of Obama’s biggest fans.

yeah fine i think the law is unconstitutional

You never say why. Read Article II, Section 2, paragraph 3, note where it says:

. . . but the Congress may by Law vest the Appointment of such inferior Officers, as they think proper, in the President alone, in the Courts of Law, or in the Heads of Departments.

Under what President/Party was FISA formed? What was the argument for its formation?

The very idea of secret courts is unconstitutional. It is anathema to the constitution. Star Chambers are unconstitutional.

I’m done discussing this.

“Since when does Roberts have the power to appoint judges?”

The chief justice of the Supreme Court appoints the Fisa judges. This is done in anonymity and is most dangerous.

The FISA judges have done much good and much bad. Their potential for bad far exceeds their potential for good. This court damn near accomplished a soft coup-de-tat. In effect they were part of a cabal of sedition. It must be disbanded.

No Star Chambers in a free country. They don’t pass constitutional muster. Not ever in the Founders intents. they were opposed to this despotism.

The FISA Judges are either the dumbest people on the planet or in on the coup. Take your pick.

“ I hope her health problems are real and terminal. “

Only after she’s indicted as a co-conspirator, removed FORCIBLY from the bench and scorned across every news outlet, live and print! FTB!

The numbers I have seen show that despite effectively a 100% approval rate of FISA requests, less than 0.5% result in arrests or indictments. Sounds like either a bunch of fishing expeditions, or the warrants are just being used as CYA for illegal surveillance of American citizens. I think a special prosecutor should be looking at every FISA application submitted for the past 10 years.

Roberts’ mistake is that he waited too long to do this. Kimberly Strassel in the Wall Street Journal on Friday lambasted Collyer. She knew all along. Ignored damning evidence from Nunes. And did nothing. This week she is suddenly outraged.

This spills over onto Roberts of course because he also knew and did nothing. (Heck I knew!) But Roberts firing Collyer is just the first step in cleaning up what is a huge mess. We should focus attention on his inaction up to this point, not that he has now finally cashiered her.
