DOJ-NSD FISA spying on Trump campaign...VERY BIG DEAL

Post by Highway Star »

This is probably the most important political reporting in two generations, since Watergate. You may have heard bits and pieces, but here's where it all gets linked together into a very chilling timeline....
Obama’s political operatives within the DOJ-NSD were using FISA 702(17) surveillance “about inquiries” that would deliver email and phone communication for U.S. people (Trump campaign). The NSD unit was working in coordination with the FBI Counterintelligence Unit (Peter Strzok etc.). In an effort to stop the activity NSA Director Mike Rogers initiated a full 702 compliance review. However, before the review was complete the DOJ-NSD had enough information for their unlawful FISA warrant which worked retroactively to make the prior FBI surveillance (began in July ’16 per James Comey) lawful. Rogers stopped the process on October 26th 2016. As a result of his not going along, Rogers became a risk; Clapper demanded he be fired.

Ten days after the election, November 17th 2016, Admiral Rogers travels to Trump Tower without telling ODNI James Clapper. Rogers likely informs President-elect Trump of the prior activity by the FBI and DOJ, including the probability that all of Trump Tower’s email and phone communication was being collected.

♦ On November 17th, 2016, NSA Director Admiral Mike Rogers went to see President-Elect Donald Trump in Trump Tower, New York. –SEE HERE– Director Rogers never told his boss DNI, James Clapper.

♦ On November 18th, 2016, the Trump Transition Team announced they were moving all transition activity to Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey. –SEE HERE– Where they interviewed and discussed the most sensitive positions to fill. Defense, State, CIA, ODNI.

It's a long read. The source is a widely read conservative anti-establishment political superblog. The timeline is very well supported. Things are REALLY heating up right now on this investigation. Note the Trump gossip book being dropped now as a distraction.

Remember, Trump is always ten steps ahead, but he always tells you what he is going to do ahead of time..........

Supporting article....
On October 7th 2017 President Trump stated:

…”You guys know what this represents? Maybe it’s the calm before the storm.”..

Everyone was trying to figure out what the president meant. The media went bananas for a few cycles talking about it. However, a picture from that evening –in addition to the recent discoveries– likely tells us all we need to know:

That night, NSA Director Admiral Mike Rogers was seated at the head of the table as each member of the military likely aware -in varying degrees- just how consequential NSA Director Mike Rogers was in fending off the biggest constitutional crisis in the history of the U.S.


A grateful U.S. President, recognizing a great and patriotic man, amid many great and patriotic men. ….And no-one outside that room even knew. Until now.

You know it’s funny…. We all felt the tide change mid-November, something was different. By early December the Inspector General stories about the DOJ and FBI malfeasance and corruption began to hit the headlines (Strzok, Page, Ohr, Baker, etc.); but it only becomes clear today, how that entire chain-of-events began.
This is HUGE. Just follow the bread crumbs down the rabbit hole.....

Bruce Ohr demoted AGAIN....

Separately, sources familiar with the discussions tell Fox News that the Justice Department is expected to comply with demands from the House Intelligence Committee to provide Ohr for an interview. He is scheduled to visit the committee on Jan. 17, sources said.

Its coming.................

http://dailycaller.com/2018/01/08/exclu ... ium=Social" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence members gained access to all Department of Justice and FBI documents it possesses on the Trump dossier, The Daily Caller News Foundation has learned.

The committee was able to review Friday all FBI and DOJ documents on the Trump dossier, former MI-6 British agent Christopher Steele who authored the dossier, and Fusion GPS, the political opposition firm that hired Steele. DOJ also provided Obama administration applications to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, which could approve the surveillance of the Trump transition team, according to a source with direct knowledge of the case.

The information could serve as a key breakthrough in the committee’s investigation of Steele, Fusion GPS and the Russians who influenced the dossiers’ contents.

Looks like crumbs of truth mixed in with wildly unsupported claims to get eyeballs to a relatively unknown blog. This does not strike me in the slightest bit as journalism, and it kind of reeks of the "fake news" label that Trump so often tries to apply to actual journalism.

What is journalism today? I don't consider CBS, NBC,ABC or CNN to be honest journalism and find Fox to be bias so just what is Journalism today anyway ?

A website that gets over 100,000 unique visitors DAILY is "relatively unknown"? Whose articles get more views and comments than CNN's?

Unknown....maybe if you live in a cave and haven't found the internet yet.

For perspective compare this to CNN, which receives ~600M visitors daily.

Thanks, I was about to make the same point. 100k visitors a day is nothing. There are over 300 million people in the USA so 100k is a very small fraction of a percent of the population. I can't imagine even 1 in 100 people have heard of this web site. I certainly never have.

Also, I call sh*t on your claim that their articles get more views than CNN's. You got any data to back that up or just pulling it out of your ass?

This is very easy to prove. CTH commonly posts 1-3 articles per day, plus 2-3 videos, plus two open discussion posts. Most people who frequently visit the site will read all the articles posted. There is also an EXTREMELY healthy comment section on all articles, most get around 500 thoughtful, unique comments in 24 hours.

CNN? Well CNN is the old media cesspool. They may have a few major stories a day that get major views because GOOGLE NEWS refers people to them, but otherwise most articles get a pathetic number of views. Also ZERO comments, since they can't maintain a comments section. On average, the average article on CNN gets less views.

You = Fail.

Link supporting your assertions? Also, what attributes did you (or the person making the assertion) use to determine if a comment was "EXTREMELY healthy"?

For fun, I sampled comments from the article you posted. It had 1,029 comments. Here's 10 I selected at random ... extrapolate over the population and I'd say the comments are indeed 'healthy'.

I would like to broach the “then what” question. Sundance has cogently laid out the case for criminality within the FBI/DOJ that warrants indictment, prosecution and, upon conviction, imprisonment. Then what? I am no fan of President Obama and his collection of miscreants, but I fear that focusing exclusively on individuals risks masking the institutional failings that have brought the Republic to this point. IMHO the surveillance state is the true legacy of 9/11, and to dismantle it will involve nothing less than the systematic elimination of all of the post 9/11 statutes that underwrite this assault on our constitutionally protected rights. Jefferson was right– security is too of ten purchased at the cost of liberty. I am reminded that the explicit goal of the Red Army Faction in West Germany (aka Baader-Meinhof) was, through acts of terror, to get the government legally to overreach, and in the process destroy the state from within. What else needs to be done to restore the integrity of our federal institutions?
