quote:BREAKING: Spy Court Admits FISA Warrants Against Carter Page Were ‘Not Valid’
Authority granted to the federal government to secretly wiretap and spy on former Trump affiliate Carter Page was “not valid,” the nation’s top spy court noted in a secret ruling penned earlier this month. The order from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC), which was created and authorized by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), was initially signed and issued on January 7, 2020, but was not declassified and released until Thursday afternoon.
Judge James Boasberg, the current federal judge presiding over the FISA court, wrote in his order that at least two of the four FISA applications against Carter Page were unlawfully authorized. Additionally, according his order, the Department of Justice similarly concluded following the release of a sprawling investigate report on the matter by the agency’s inspector general that the government did not have probable cause that Page was acting as an agent of a foreign power. The FISA law states that American citizens cannot be secretly spied on by the U.S. government absent probable cause, based on valid evidence, that an American is unlawfully acting as a foreign agent.

The Justice Department recently conceded that two of the four orders to wiretap former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page were “not valid,” Judge James Boasberg said in a court order unsealed Thursday.
The Justice Department made the surprising concession in response to an inspector general’s (IG) report that found “significant” errors and omissions in four applications submitted to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) to surveil Page.
While the IG report was highly critical of the FBI and Justice Department, it did not weigh in on the validity of the four surveillance applications, which were granted under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA).
But Boasberg, who presides over the FISC, said in an order on Jan. 7 that the Justice Department concluded that the second and third renewals of the Page surveillance warrants “were not valid.”
Boasberg said that the government did not take a position on the validity of the initial application, granted on Oct. 21, 2016, and the first renewal, granted on Jan. 12, 2017.
Boasberg also said that the Justice Department informed the FISC that prior to applying for the final two warrants, “there was insufficient predication to establish probable cause to believe that [Carter] Page was acting as an agent of a foreign power.”

U.S. Attorney John Durham is reportedly reviewing John Brennan’s analysis of Russian election interference, including scrutiny of the former Obama CIA director’s handling of a secret source said to be close to the Kremlin.
Durham, who was selected by Attorney General William Barr in 2019 to look into the origins of the Trump-Russia investigation and the government’s response to Moscow’s meddling, is investigating whether Brennan’s CIA was attempting to keep other agencies in the dark as he pushed for a specific, preconceived analytic assessment about Russia’s true intentions in 2016, the New York Times reported Thursday.
The top Connecticut prosecutor’s team reviewed emails from the CIA, FBI, and National Security Agency analysts who came together to assess Russia’s interference, the new report revealed, and Durham’s investigators pressed for answers about why some agencies at least temporarily denied other agencies access to secretive intelligence about the Kremlin’s active-measures campaign.
Durham interviewed agents and analysts from all three agencies, and the report said he was scrutinizing whether the clash over intelligence-sharing was the typical sort of bureaucratic turf battle over jealously guarded secrets or an effort to cover something up.
Much of this revolves around how the United States government eventually reached its January 2017 intelligence assessment on Russian meddling and whether Brennan was pushing for a biased result.
One major battle was about the identity and credibility of a CIA source allegedly close to the Kremlin. The NSA wanted more details about him, which the CIA resisted before providing them. The NSA then disagreed with the CIA and FBI about how much confidence to place in the source.
At least some intelligence officials were disturbed by a law enforcement officer such as Durham inquiring into the assessments made by intelligence agencies, though Durham played a similar role in his Obama-era investigation into the CIA's destruction of tapes showing the harsh interrogation of detainees.
Durham hasn’t yet interviewed Brennan, though the report said his emails and other records have been requested from the CIA by the U.S. attorney. Retired Adm. Mike Rogers, who was head of the NSA at the time, was interviewed by Durham last summer and fall.
The January 2017 intelligence community assessment in question concluded with "high confidence" that Russian President Vladimir Putin “ordered an influence campaign in 2016” and that Russia worked to “undermine public faith in the U.S. democratic process, denigrate former Secretary of State [Hillary] Clinton, and harm her electability and potential presidency” and “developed a clear preference for President-elect Trump.” The NSA diverged on one aspect, expressing only “moderate confidence” that Putin actively tried to help Trump’s election chances and harm those of Clinton by contrasting her unfavorably.
“I wouldn’t call it a discrepancy, I’d call it an honest difference of opinion between three different organizations, and, in the end, I made that call,” Rogers told the Senate in May 2017. “It didn’t have the same level of sourcing and the same level of multiple sources.”
It was Brennan’s still-classified “wake-up call” intelligence that prompted the Obama administration to reconsider how it viewed Russia's hacking of the Democratic National Committee, the Senate Intelligence Committee revealed last week. The specifics of the intelligence that jolted Barack Obama's national security team into action is detailed in a blacked-out section, titled “[Redacted] Intelligence Was The ‘Wake Up’ Call.”
Within an hour or two of being briefed on the intelligence, then-national security adviser Susan Rice said Obama needed to know.
Rice said “the president's reaction was of grave concern,” which “prompted her to call the first of a series of restricted small-group Principals Committee meetings on the topic.”
“During the meeting with the President, Director Brennan also advised the President of a plan to brief key individuals, including congressional leadership, but not to disseminate the intelligence via routine reporting channels,” the Senate report stated.
The committee noted “the receipt of the sensitive intelligence prompted the National Security Council to begin a series of restricted Principals Committee meetings to craft the administration's response” and said the discussions “were atypically restricted” and “excluded” key officials who were normally clued in.
Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power said that “the extraordinarily restricted nature of the meetings and departure from routine methods of disseminating intelligence were reminiscent” of how they handled preparations for the Osama bin Laden raid. Former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates called it “very cloak-and-dagger.”
The list even initially excluded the secretary of state, the defense secretary, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, and the Treasury secretary.
“Several NSC officials who would normally be included in discussions of importance, such as the NSC Senior Director for Russia, the Senior Director for Intelligence Programs, and the White House Cybersecurity Coordinator, were neither included in the discussions nor exposed to the sensitive intelligence until after the election,” the report said.
The Brennan-relayed intelligence was likely detailed in a June 2017 Washington Post article, which stated that in early August 2016, the CIA sent an “eyes only” envelope addressed to Obama that contained an “intelligence bombshell … from sourcing deep inside the Russian government” that detailed Putin’s “specific instructions” to help Trump and hurt Clinton in 2016. The material was said to be so sensitive it was kept out of the President’s Daily Brief.

One day after Trump gave Barr “full and complete” declassification authority to examine the origins of the Trump-Russia investigation in May 2019, the New York Times published a piece on this source “long-nurtured by the CIA” whom the outlet hinted was now in danger of being exposed in Russia — but he had already left the country. The source’s initial resistance to being pulled out reportedly led some to question whether he might be a double agent.
Hotly disputed reporting by CNN and others in September 2019 about the reasons for the alleged source’s apparent 2017 exfiltration from Russia eventually exposed his identity and revealed he was living in the D.C. area. He’s since been moved, and it is not known whether Durham has questioned him.
Voorzitter van de Senate Judiciary Committee Lindsey Graham heeft het ministerie van Justitie gevraagd om getuigen vrij te maken die betrokken waren bij het FBI-onderzoek Crossfire Hurricane, inclusief de aanvragen en verlengingen van de FISA-dagvaarding tegen Carter Page.quote:Op zondag 9 februari 2020 16:33 schreef dellipder het volgende:

Het verhoor van Rod Rosenstein wordt interessant, omdat dan bevestigd wordt dat niet het lekken van memo's door James Comey het instellen van de special counsel Robert Mueller in gang bracht, maar de beslissing van toen acting attorney general Rosenstein het obstruction of justice-onderzoek dat Andrew McCabe had gestart tegen president Trump, vanwege zijn beslissing James Comey te ontslaan, bij hem en de FBI weg te halen en het onder de auspiciën van het ministerie van Justitie te laten vallen.

De volgende aflevering in de Russia-conspiracy en the usual suspects duiken op; de inlichtingendiensten, DNC, Adam Schiff, WaPo, NYT.quote:'Rusland wil opnieuw Amerikaanse presidentsverkiezingen beïnvloeden'
Amerikaanse inlichtingendiensten waarschuwen dat Rusland opnieuw probeert om de Amerikaanse presidentsverkiezingen te beïnvloeden. De Russen willen dat Trump wordt herkozen als president, was de boodschap aan de commissie van het Huis van Afgevaardigden die zich richt op de inlichtingendiensten.
Onder meer The New York Times schrijft over de bijeenkomst van vorige week. De inlichtingendiensten zeiden dat Rusland zowel de voorverkiezingen als de algemene verkiezingen van november wil beïnvloeden. Volgens de The New York Times reageerde Trump woedend. Hij zou bang zijn dat de Democraten het tegen hem gaan gebruiken.
Inlichtingenbaas
Woensdag verving Trump Joseph Maguire als de hoogste baas van de inlichtingendiensten door Richard Grenell, de ambassadeur in Duitsland en een vertrouweling van de president. Trump gaf geen reden voor de vervanging. Wel bedankte hij Maguire voor "zijn fantastische werk". Op Twitter schreef hij ook dat hij ernaar uitkijkt om met hem te blijven werken in een mogelijke andere functie.
De aanstelling van Grennell leidde tot kritiek van Democraten. Volgens senator Mark Warner heeft Trump iemand zonder enige ervaring op inlichtingengebied aangesteld als hoogste inlichtingenbaas.
Ook The Washington Post en persbureau AP schrijven over de bijeenkomst in de commissie van het Huis van Afgevaardigden op 13 februari. Republikeinen reageerden kritisch op de waarschuwing en wezen erop dat Trump Rusland de afgelopen jaren hard heeft aangepakt, onder meer door sancties.
Democratische afgevaardigden noemen de waarschuwing "een belangrijk bericht over de integriteit van de aanstaande verkiezingen". Volgens Adam Schiff, die de afzettingsprocedure tegen Trump leidde, lijkt het erop dat Trump "opnieuw onze pogingen ondermijnt om buitenlandse inmenging te stoppen".
Inmenging 2016
Bij de presidentsverkiezingen van 2016 heeft Rusland geprobeerd de Amerikaanse kiezers te beïnvloeden, concludeerde speciaal aanklager Robert Mueller vorig jaar. Met een hackoperatie en via sociale media werd Trumps tegenstander Hillary Clinton zwartgemaakt. Maar volgens Mueller was er geen bewijs van samenzwering tussen Trump en Rusland.
Trump heeft altijd ontkend dat hij met Rusland heeft samengewerkt en hij noemde het onderzoek daarnaar een hoax, een nepverhaal.
Verder is het lezen van dit artikel ook een tijdverspilling, omdat geen enkel bewijs wordt geleverd die de claims kunnen onderbouwen dat Rusland probeert Donald Trump te helpen, er wordt toegegeven dat er geen nieuw bewijs en er wordt toegegeven dat er geen bewijs was die de oude claims staafden.twitter:RepAdamSchiff twitterde op vrijdag 21-02-2020 om 01:51:21 We count on the intelligence community to inform Congress of any threat of foreign interference in our elections.If reports are true and the President is interfering with that, he is again jeopardizing our efforts to stop foreign meddling.Exactly as we warned he would do. https://t.co/viSBlnA1nb reageer retweet
Maguire haalde het in zijn hoofd de Ruslandbullshit weer op te warmen en daarmee dus direct Trump aan te vallen. Terecht dat hij eruit geknikkerd wordt. Hoog tijd dat opnieuw de bezem door de top van de veiligheidsdiensten wordt gehaald, er blijken immers nog zat mollen actief die de president en diens regering tegenwerken. De MSM probeert de burger nu wijs te maken dat dit allemaal heel dom is, aangezien Grenell helemaal geen ervaring binnen de 'Intelligence Community' heeft, terwijl mensen van buiten juist de boel prima kunnen opruimen, net zoals Trump van origine geen politicus is.quote:Most alarming, however, is the reported back story about just how Grenell came to be pitched at the last moment into this job for which he is all but utterly unqualified. The New York Times reported Thursday afternoon that Trump exploded at Joseph Maguire, a veteran intelligence operative who was the current acting DNI after it became known that one tell-it-like-it-is Maguire deputy told a bipartisan congressional committee, including Trump's archnemesis, Adam Schiff, that Russia is back at it again -- pushing Trump's re-election. A source familiar with internal discussions said White House officials saw Grenell as a stopgap -- Maguire's time in the job as an acting DNI was limited, and Trump was dissatisfied with Maguire because of this intelligence briefing.
Richard Grenell is trouwens openlijk homoseksueel en anti-oorlog. Hier een stukje uit een gesprek met Dave Rubin van enkele dagen geleden:quote:NSC aide who worked to discredit Russia probe moves to senior ODNI post

Ik vermoed juist dat de kans dan niet heel erg groot is dat Collins deze rol gaat vervullen. Niet gebaseerd op inside infomatie.
Maguire is dus eerder gewieberd dan gepland ten faveure van Grenell, totdat er een vaste invulling voor de functie is?
Maar dat Maguire eerder dan gepland zijn tijdelijke functie moet opgeven, zou dus inderdaad te maken kunnen hebben met de opnieuw opgewarmde Rusland-BS vanuit de intelligence commitee.quote:Op vrijdag 21 februari 2020 13:02 schreef dellipder het volgende:

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said on Tuesday that he has started closed-door interviews as part of his deep dive into the surveillance courts and the FBI’s Russia probe.
Graham confirmed to reporters that he has started the depositions, then escaped into a Senate elevator.
Graham is using his gavel to probe the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) surveillance warrants involving Trump campaign associate Carter Page and the FBI’s handling of the investigation into Russia's election meddling and the Trump campaign.
He’s requested testimony from more than 20 current Justice Department and FBI officials.
He also wants to call former officials including former FBI Director James Comey, former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates before his committee.
The deep dive comes amid growing concerns about the potential for abuse of the FISC after Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz found 17 “significant inaccuracies and omissions” in the Page warrant application.
Some of President Trump’s biggest allies want to use a debate over soon-to-expire provisions of the USA Freedom Act to make broader changes to the surveillance court.
Trump is convening a meeting on Tuesday afternoon with lawmakers on both sides of the debate to try to break the stalemate.
Congress has until March 15 to extend three provisions of the USA Freedom Act.
