Cleaning up the swamp



part two part three part four part five part six part seven part eight part nine part ten part eleven part twelve.


...Against media-Democrat caterwauling, a doughty group of lawmakers forced a shift in the spotlight from Trump to his investigators and accusers. This has exposed the depth of politicization within American law-enforcement and intelligence agencies. It is now clear that the institutions on which our nation depends for objective policing and clear-eyed analysis injected themselves scandalously into the divisive politics of the 2016 election.

And from military analyst Austin Bay:


A FISC with integrity must also protect an American citizen's constitutional rights from crooks and crony government.
Horowitz discovered premeditated fraud on the FISC by a DOJ attorney. In 2016, the attorney "altered" email from "the other U.S. government agency" (CIA) and submitted a fraudulent application for a warrant to the court. So the FISC approved the warrant. The target: Carter Page, a Naval Academy graduate and a former Trump presidential campaign associate. Spying on Page -- an innocent man -- opened a door to spying on President Donald Trump...
and I'm so old that I remember how the press ridiculed Trumpieboy when he said his office had been "wiretapped". Duh.

and it gets worse, because those applying for the FISA snooping knew the guy was a CIA asset: 
The FISC expects the government to provide complete and accurate information in every filing with the Court." Collyer should chastise herself as well. She and her colleagues failed to responsibly question the application. The FBI alleges a Naval Academy grad associated with a presidential campaign in an election year is a Russian asset? Judge, wake the hell up. Page was actually a CIA asset.
the Church committee 40 years ago was about the CIA snooping on ordinary Americans, and put reforms into place to stop this from happening again... alas, supposedly the 911 allowed a bit of snooping to stop terrorist attacks, but has resulted in manipulating politics instead.

and if they can do this to Trumpieboy just think of what the government could do to you in the future.
