FISA – What if?

Americans are you hearing all of this? How many of you even know what I am referring to? Less than half would be my guess. The only network talking about it is Fox. But then again, there are a lot of you on Twitter, and FISA has been front and center on Twitter so maybe you have some idea.

FISA (Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act). This is the act that was put in place after 911 allowing our Government, the FBI and CIA primarily to spy on foreign actors who are plotting against the US. The concern has always been that these agencies have expanded their surveillance to American Citizens which is against the law.

When you hear FISA these past few weeks, the reference is to the FBI using the law to spy on, then private citizen Donald J. Trump, who as you know, was running for President. The Government went to the FISA court (the FISA court is made up of special judges to whom the Government must submit requests and from whom they must get approval in order to spy on someone), at least two times, asking the court to approve their surveillance of Mr. Trump.  The court turned the requests down. This almost never happens. It is well known that FISA requests are always approved. It happened in these two cases because the Government’s arguments were weak, not convincing enough for the Judge.  Which means the requests must have been really weak.

In the meantime, the Clinton campaign hired a group to produce a dossier on her opponent Donald Trump. Translation – go out and find dirt on my opponent that I can use against him during the campaign. She paid this group over 10 million dollars for this dossier. When Hillary was asked about it she said she wasn’t aware of any such dossier. Think about that.  She spent, or rather, the campaign that she was running spent near 10 million dollars.  She isn’t aware of it? This was going to be our President. Ah, 10 million here, 10 million there, pennies, right? Not to you and me. In the end, the findings in the dossier were never used by the campaign because none of the allegations could be backed up.

The FBI was made aware of the dossier by…   Are you ready for this? Senator John McCain. McCain sent one of his cronies to Europe to meet with Fusion GPS, the authors of the dossier headed by a former British Spy. McCain I guess, felt the information in the dossier was a threat to our national security, so he gave it to the FBI. The fact, I am sure, that Trump slammed McCain during the election had nothing to do with McCain wanting the FBI to have this. McCain wasn’t about to let the truth get in the way of his being able to get even.

At least three higher-ups in the FBI (Peter Strzok, Lisa Page and Andrew McCabe) took the dossier and ran with it. These three have been proven to be huge Hillary Clinton supporters, donating thousands to her campaign. These clowns massaged their prior requests to the FISA court to include the false information in the dossier. This time they hit gold, the court approved surveillance of Trump.

Remember when Trump accused the government of wiretapping Trump Towers? Remember, then FBI Director Comey testified to the Intelligence Committee that this never happened.  Interesting, huh?

Fast forward a month. Trump wins the election. Now we are hearing about text messages between these three FBI agents.  They are talking about some kind of insurance policy, in case Trump wins.  Although, they think that’s highly unlikely. They (Peter Strozk and Lisa Page) talk about some secret society.  They talk about Attorney General Loretta Lynch knows Hillary won’t be prosecuted.  This was prior to the election when Hillary was being investigated over the email/server debacle. We also are learning that the letter that Comey read to the nation, letting Hillary off the hook was written prior to the FBI even interviewing Hillary. The feeling is, the whole Hillary investigation was a hack job.  Comey also testified to congress that he didn’t make up his mind on Hillary until after he interviewed Hillary. Based on these text messages, that’s a lie. Oh and just for the heck of it, Strozk and Page were having an affair while they were playing Maxwell Smart and agent 99.

It can be very confusing.  It is designed to be very confusing. During the first two months, remember, President Trump fired Comey.  Comey then released private notes to a professor friend.  Per Comey’s instruction, the professor (friend) leaked the notes to the Washington Post.  As planned by Comey, this causes the hiring of the special prosecutor Mueller. Mueller is hired to investigate possible Russian collusion by the Trump campaign. The entire Russia collusion is based on the dossier.  The fake dossier if you listen to Sean Hannity (which I do).  Is this ripe for the next Clancy novel or what?

If true America, we are witnessing a plot to 1. Fix an election and 2. Over-throw a duly elected US President. This stuff makes Watergate look like a child steeling bubble gum.

Also, if true, Comey lied.  Loretta Lynch lied.  Whoever made the actual FISA request lied.  Certainly, the three FBI agents (one of which, Andrew McCabe was on the Mueller investigation team until he was removed once Muller learned of his bias toward Hillary) LIED.  These three did all of this because they felt that they knew best who should be our president.

Last week we learned that congress wrote a memo outlining all of this.  I assume their memo was outlined much better than I just did it.  The memo reportedly contains great details about the conspiracy to rig the election and over throw (impeach) the president. The republican congress is demanding that the memo is released to us, the public so that we know what they know. Twitter has gone wild with #releasethememo.

In the meantime, Congress is requesting that the FBI release all the text messages between the two FBI (lover) agents Page and Strozk. Guess what? The FBI claims that the text message have been lost! Not kidding.  50,000 text messages from November 2016 to January 2017 have suddenly gone missing.  Where have you heard this before? Remember the 33,000 missing Hillary emails? Remember the missing IRS emails. Every time a case is heating up, something suddenly goes missing. Just a coincidence…I am sure.

So America, what if this is true? Do you think all of this is just happenstance?  Not true?  Made up by Republicans to throw off Mueller in the Russian investigation? How is it that a year later, Mueller hasn’t pinned anything on Trump? If it is true, the entire Mueller investigation is a made-up shame, wasting tax payer dollars and completely harming the President and the country as a whole.

It seems odd to me, that for the past two weeks we’ve not heard a word out of Hillary. Even big mouth Obama has been silent on this and so have their (NBC, ABC, CBS, MSNBC, CNN) media outlets, who have not spent two minutes covering this story. Wouldn’t you think they would at least be screaming about these damn Republicans?

This is another “standby” post, because only time will tell. A few of the congressmen are saying they expect the memo to be released to us, maybe as soon as next week. The Democrats are already planning their strategy. They’re starting to say that this in just another right wing conspiracy. Over 100 Republicans have gone down to the secured room where the memo is and have read it. As of this writing, fewer than five Democrats have even taken the time to read it.

Meanwhile, the big debate that the media wants us to focus on is illegal aliens being allowed to stay in the country.  Focus America.  When the media point to the shiny object in the corner, don’t blink.  Keep your eyes on this FISA investigation. Our democracy depends on it.

Let’s talk again, real soon.
