As we\u2019ve seen over the last few years, the FISA courts have been nothing more then a rubber stamp for the DoJ and FBI allowing them to run roughshod over the constitutional rights of people. The whole thing blew up in the faces of the Deep State operatives when they were recently found to have flat out lied on many of the applications. Now the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act is up for renewal, and many member of congress, on both sides of the aisle, are wondering if if it should be renewed or scrapped. Here are the details from Fox News<\/b><\/a>:<\/p>\n New findings<\/a> by the Justice Department inspector general that the FBI has repeatedly violated surveillance rules<\/a> could impact Congress’ pending reauthorization of key powers related to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC), with top Republican lawmakers already saying the DOJ report will have major consequences for surveillance law. <\/b><\/p>\n Several surveillance provisions under the 2015 USA Freedom Act have lapsed in recent weeks, at least temporarily, because the House has not yet passed the Senate’s 77-day temporary extension<\/a>. The House had amended portions of the law in its own proposed three-year reauthorization, but the Senate couldn’t reach an agreement on the matter and decided to try to punt the matter so that lawmakers could focus on the coronavirus pandemic. <\/b><\/p>\n The three lapsed provisions include the “roving wiretap” power, which enables authorities to obtain a warrant from the FISC without identifying the target, and while following a target from one device to another. Also included is the “lone wolf” power, which allows authorities to obtain a FISA court warrant without demonstrating that the target is working for a foreign entity. A records provision that allows authorities to seize telephone metadata and banking records, among other documents, is also suspended.<\/b><\/p>\n To which I say, GOOD! Frankly, the entire FIS Act needs to be scrapped, and considering the deep corruption of the DoJ and FBI, they may need to be shut down and disbanded as well. Right now, it\u2019s time to start looking at criminal prosecutions of some of these officials who put these warrant requests in front of the FISA court knowing perfectly well they were bogus. As for the judges who approved them? I think impeachment may be the only solution.<\/p>\n \u201cNo one was more appalled than the attorney general at the way the FISA process was abused. This abuse resulted in one of the greatest political travesties in American history and should never happen again,” Justice Department spokeswoman Kerri Kupec said in a statement. \u201cHowever, FISA remains a critical tool to ensuring the safety and security of the American people, particularly when it comes to fighting terrorism.” <\/b><\/p>\n That travesty was the attempt by Deep State operatives in the Department of Justice to remove a sitting president, Donald J. Trump, because they couldn\u2019t control him. As for FISA being a major tool to fight terrorism, who about naming a few that were caught and convicted? No problem, I\u2019ll wait, however, I don\u2019t think Congress will.<\/p>\n But lawmakers were skeptical, pointing out that the DOJ watchdog had found that FISA problems were systemic at the bureau and extended beyond the FBI’s probe into former Trump adviser Carter Page. In four of the 29 cases the DOJ inspector general reviewed, the FBI did not have any so-called “Woods files” at all, referring to mandatory documentation demonstrating that it had independently corroborated key factual assertions in its surveillance warrant applications. In three of those applications, the FBI couldn’t confirm that Woods documentation ever existed. <\/b><\/p>\n They couldn\u2019t confirm if it existed for a very simple reason. It didn\u2019t, and never did. Just how bad was it? In the sample the IG looked at, it was pretty bad.<\/p>\n The other 25 applications the DOJ reviewed contained an average of 20 assertions not properly supported with Woods materials; one application contained 65 unsupported claims. The review encompassed the work of eight field offices over the past five years in several cases.<\/b><\/p>\n “Unbelievable,” wrote Rep. Doug Collins, R-Ga. “Inspector General Horowitz found 4 of the 29 Woods Files were missing… and in 3 instances, it\u2019s possible they never existed. This is exactly why we need to reform our #FISA system. We can\u2019t let what happened to @realDonaldTrump in 2016 ever happen again!” <\/b><\/p>\n Finally, some members of congress are recognizing what many normal Americans have known for decades. You can not trust the FBI. The DoJ and the FBI are trying to get FISA renewed, but the anger coming from Congress puts it in jeopardy.<\/p>\n Sens. Mike Lee, R-Utah, and Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., issued a joint statement saying the DOJ report would impact the surveillance reauthorizations. <\/b><\/p>\n \u201cThis report also comes at a critical time. In the coming months the Senate will consider extending important surveillance tools authorized in the USA FREEDOM Act of 2015,” they wrote. “The FISA process needs real reforms, not window-dressing.”<\/b><\/p>\n Well, that\u2019s interesting, Leaky Leahy, who never met a secret he didn\u2019t want to pass on to our enemies and Mike Lee, one of the biggest Statists in DC and who never met a police power he didn\u2019t want to increase, agreeing on something. Meanwhile, others are trying to \u201cFix\u201d this mess.<\/p>\n Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., who serves on the Senate Intelligence Committee, in March urged an amendment that would prohibit the warrantless collection of web browsing and Internet search history, as well as an amendment establishing independent oversight of the FISA process. <\/b><\/p>\n \u201cUnder this agreement, the Senate will have an opportunity to debate whether the government can conduct digital tracking of Americans without a warrant,” Wyden said. “Everyone who was concerned about the government collecting their library records, or seeing who you called, should be terrified that the government can grab your Internet browsing history without a warrant. That\u2019s wrong, and my amendment prohibits that practice. And I strongly support my colleagues\u2019 amendment to add independent oversight of FISA, which has had bipartisan support for many years and will finally be considered.\u201d <\/b><\/p>\n One of the reasons the FISA fiasco came to light was Carter Page, who was a Trump campaign advisor. The FBI, dedicated to bringing down Candidate Trump, and later President Trump began an illegal surveillance of Page. Illegal, because it\u2019s come out that the FBI and DoJ flat out lied on the warrant requests to the FISA court.<\/p>\n President Trump, who has repeatedly noted that Page was extensively monitored under FISA based on information that has since been proven legally inadequate and in some cases fraudulent<\/a>, has floated the possibility of vetoing a FISA reauthorization should it come to his desk. <\/b><\/p>\n Do it Mr. President. If congress passes the reauthorization bill, you should veto it. It has no place under the Constitution of the United States, and as we have seen, and you were a victim of, will be abused.<\/p>\n The report from the DOJ inspector general last week stood in stark contrast to the years of assurances from top Democrats and media commentators that bureau scrupulously handled FISA warrants. <\/b><\/p>\n I\u2019m shocked, SHOCKED! that the Democrats would lie about how the FBI handled FISA warrants. Of course, they were using the FBI to go after their political enemies, of which President Trump tops the list. The fact is, they are still pushing that fake Russia Dossier bought and paid for by Felonia von Pantsuit as valuable intelligence.<\/p>\n F<\/b>or several years, Democrats<\/a> and other analysts at The New York Times<\/a>, The Washington Post<\/a> and CNN<\/a> have repeatedly claimed that key claims in the Clinton-funded anti-Trump dossier had been corroborated and that the document was not critical to the FBI’s warrant to surveil Page. Horowitz repudiated that claim, with the FBI’s legal counsel even describing the warrant to surveil Page as “essentially a single source FISA” wholly dependent on the dossier. <\/b><\/p>\n And these organizations are wondering why no one believes anything they say anymore. They are not news and information sources, they are the propaganda corp for the Democrat Party. (Now known as the Democratic CommuNazi party or just CommuNazis) The simple fact is, FISA needs to die. The FISA judges not only need to be sent back to their respective courts, they should be flat out removed as judges. The FBI should be disbanded, and honestly, most of the agents dismissed from any law enforcement position anywhere. They have shown they can not be trusted.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
