{ renewamerica.com } ~ As the USA continues its descent into the deep bowels of becoming the old Soviet Union, more and more of our "lawmakers" are allowing it to happen... There are a few – notably including Rep. Devin Nunes – who against continual blowback from the Left have been tirelessly working to bring the truth to the forefront. And, what is this truth? It's the – now – documented and out-in-the-open facts showing that the liar-nObama "Shadow Government" which I have been writing about since October 2008 – before liar-nObama's 'election' and "Secret Cabal" within our Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation is real. Nunes' 4-page "FISA Memo" released 2 February 2018, is based upon this 99- page document, which is verifiable and can be viewed online. Of note is that the 99-page document not only identified the FBI but, also, the DOJ, CIA and NSA. The document was prepared by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (aka FISA court) and the Nunes' Report is based upon FISC's conclusions. At the end of Item 4 of the Nunes' Report, it is clearly stated – and with no ambiguity: "[FBI] Deputy Director McCabe testified before the committee December 2017 that no surveillance warrant would have been sought from the FISC without the Steele dossier information."... http://www.renewamerica.com/columns/zieve/180206
Gen. Mattis: ‘If You Threaten Us, It Will Be Your Longest And Worst Day’
.
by Thomas Gallatin: The House Intelligence Committee voted unanimously Monday to release the Democrat rebuttal to the Republicans’ FISA memo. President Donald Trump will now have five days to decide if he will release it to the public, which he has previously stated he would do. Rep. scum-Adam Schiff (D-CA), the author of this rebuttal memo, accused Republicans of seeking to distort the facts with the FISA memo produced by House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R-CA). Democrats claim that Nunes coordinated with the White House in creating the FISA memo, a charge Nunes has strongly denied. Meanwhile, Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) “leaked” a six-page response to the FISA memo, in which he argues that the FBI’s acquiring of a FISA warrant based on the dubious and unverified Christopher Steele dossier was perfectly fine because of Steele’s solid reputation with the FBI and because the allegations made within the dossier have not been disproven.
Andrew McCarthy of National Review astutely notes that the court is interested in the credibility of eyewitnesses, not the reputation of the agent who collected the information. If the FBI, as the FISA memo alleges, relied heavily on the unverified information from the Steele dossier, then the FBI did not meet the standard necessary to justify receiving a surveillance warrant. McCarthy writes, “So far, the FBI and Justice Department have provided only cause for grave concern that they gave a federal court unverified, highly unreliable information that was essential to the court’s probable-cause finding, and that they did so without being candid with the court about the biases of the information’s purveyor. That being so, the burden is on the FBI and the Justice Department to prove that they did not act improperly in seeking the FISA warrant — especially since they, rather than the rest of us, are in possession of the information that they insist would vindicate them.”
McCarthy also points out that the burden is on the DOJ and the FBI to prove they had credible witnesses for seeking a FISA warrant. He writes, “Before you ever get to the point of having an expert explain factual transactions that are beyond the ken of the layman, the occurrence of these factual transactions has to be established by competent, reliable witnesses. Steele and the FBI point us to none.” He continues, “Warrants are issued based on the quality of the information proffered to the court, not the duration of the information-gathering process.”
Democrats are clearly scrambling to regain control of the narrative surrounding Russiagate, with spurious accusations of a Republican Congress going out of its way in seeking to protect Trump. However, the stench of deep-state corruption is all wafting from the Democrat side of the aisle, and no amount of political spin perfume will cover the stink of this growing scandal. ~The Patriot Post
