51. FISA
Mon Mar 20, 2017, 07:49 PM
Mar 2017

From today's hearing:


SCHIFF: Mr. Trump also asserted in the tweet that the application was turned down by a court. Was there any request made by the FBI or the Justice Department to wiretap Donald Trump turned down by a court?

COMEY: That is one of the subjects that I can’t comment on one way or another, and please don't interpret that, but I cannot respond to anything that relates to the FISA process in an open setting.

I have been reflecting on this since you posted the discussion & the hack on DU on election night Pachamama Mar 2017 #11
I suspect there is an investigation still in progress. Anyway, oddly we haven't heard much L. Coyote Mar 2017 #12
Holy shit--how did I not see that original thread?!? Orrex Mar 2017 #13

was it vanity fair? Slate, Mother Jones, DU itself? barbtries Mar 2017 #16
yes, David Corn (Mother Jones) reported on it like a week before the election Fast Walker 52 Mar 2017 #25
thank you! barbtries Mar 2017 #31
Corn never mentioned a FISA warrant in his Oct. 31 piece. GliderGuider Mar 2017 #45
OK, I looked back at the article. It doesn't mention surveillance of Trump tower. Fast Walker 52 Mar 2017 #50
DU should build a backup site on another platform for just such emergencies ffr Mar 2017 #18
Or DU could build a massive firewall and ask another web site to pay for it Generic Brad Mar 2017 #54

I'm still watching. The DNC hack details are now being discussed. L. Coyote Mar 2017 #42
Well, the only person who has mentioned the FISA warrant Dr Hobbitstein Mar 2017 #43
Pay closer attention, instead of creating fake facts, disinformation, and character assassination L. Coyote Mar 2017 #46
