Jim Jordan presses Nadler to hold hearing on wide-spread FISA abuses following damning IG report. Chuck Ross, DCNF Rep. Jim Jordan, the top Republican on the House Judiciary Committee, called on House Democrats to invite Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz to testify about his investigations of the FBI’s abuse of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. Rep. Jerry Nadler, the chairman of the committee, has resisted requests to invite Horowitz to testify about his office’s report of the FBI’s mishandling of surveillance against former Trump campaign aide Carter Page. Jordan renewed his request of Nadler after Horowitz released the preliminary results of an audit his office conducted of a sample of 29 applications that the FBI submitted to a federal court in order to spy on American citizens. Horowitz’s investigators found problems in all 29 applications selected for audit.
Horowitz began the audit as a follow-up to his investigation into the FBI’s surveillance of Carter Page. IG 'lacks confidence' FBI can file spy warrants, finds widespread abuse. The Justice Department’s Office of the Inspector General released a bombshell report detailing serious allegations against the FBI on Tuesday for abuse of power in the FISA process. The Inspector General conducted an investigation into the spy warrants filed by the FBI after finding “17 significant inaccuracies and omissions” in the warrants against President Trump’s campaign associate Carter Page. The Inspector General says that he has a “lack of confidence” in the FBI’s ability to file spy warrants. The investigation focused on 29 applications filed between October 2014 and September 2019. They were replete with errors and the required documents backing up four of the warrants did not even exist. “As a result of our audit work to date and as described below, we do not have confidence that the FBI has executed its Woods Procedures in compliance with FBI policy,” said the OIG.
Not a single FISA application reviewed met the requirements. PowerInbox. IG Horowitz: 'We do not have confidence that the FBI has executed its Woods Procedures' This story is developing Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz released scathing findings Tuesday on his agencies review of numerous FBI applications for warrants in the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court saying ‘we do not have confidence that the FBI has executed its Woods Procedures.’ The months long review was initiated last year after it was discovered that the bureau agents involved in the now debunked investigation into President Donald Trump’s campaign and whether it colluded with Russia, had altered documentation and withheld vital information from the court on then campaign advisor Carter Page. The warrant obtained by the FBI was used to spy on Page’s communications and was renewed three times from the time it was obtained in the Fall of 2016.
“As a result of our audit work to date and as described below, we do not have confidence that the FBI has executed its Woods Procedures in compliance with FBI policy,” the report stated. Moreover the report states: DOJ charges Venezuela’s Maduro with narcoterrorism. Attorney General William Barr announced narcoterrorism charges against Venezuelan socialist leader Nicolas Maduro for his role in facilitating the global drug trade in coordination with the Colombia-based terrorist group known as the FARC. The Justice Department said on Thursday that Maduro formed and leads his own drug ring, dubbed the Cartel of the Sun, and gives the FARC free rein to operate in parts of Venezuela.
Investigators said Maduro and his co-conspirators were being charged with conspiracy to commit narcoterrorism, conspiracy to import hundreds of tons of cocaine into the United States, and a variety of weapons charges. The department said Maduro expressly indented on flooding the U.S. with cocaine to harm the health and well-being of the nation. The chief justice of Venezuela was also charged with international money laundering. Maduro assumed power in Venezuela in 2013 following the death of authoritarian ruler Hugo Chavez.

The U.S. Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court on Wednesday granted the Justice Department a one-week extension to give details about court-ordered reforms to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) amid the coronavirus outbreak. “The government, through counsel, orally requested a one-week extension of the time to provide such information, in view of modified staffing and telework practices occasioned by the COVID-19 outbreak,” Judge James Boasberg, chief judge of the FISA court, wrote, The Washington Examiner reported. “Accordingly, the government’s time to provide such information is hereby extended.”
FISA court blocks FBI agents linked to Carter Page probe from seeking wiretaps, other surveillance Late last year, the inspector general found at least 17 "significant inaccuracies and omissions" in the application to get a warrant to monitor former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page. FACT CHECK : Yes, Nancy Pelosi Moved Billions from SSI to Cover Impeachment Costs – Freedom Fictions. The Claim: Nancy Pelosi moved $2.4 billion from social security funding to cover the cost of Donald Trump’s impeachment proceedings. The report was made in an article published on the America’s Last Line of Defense satire network and was clearly labeled as such. Despite that fact and the dubiously named author “Fallis Gunnington”, (“Phallus” is a synonym for “penis”), the article has been shared by nearly one million pea-brained trumpchumps clamoring about losing their social security.
We researched and rate this claim as : Pelosi in no way would be able to pull off such a ridiculous stunt, even if she wanted to, and 2.4 billion dollars was randomly invented to sound large. Although it would be worth it to see that cartoon embarrassment of a President gone. More reporting on this story below: Barr says John Durham’s Russia investigation persists during coronavirus outbreak. For those wondering if U.S. Attorney John Durham's secretive review of the origins and conduct of the Trump-Russia investigation will be delayed by the growing coronavirus outbreak in the United States, a new report offered a clue. Attorney General William Barr told the Wall Street Journal in an interview published Monday that Durham, the top federal prosecutor in Connecticut, was in Washington, D.C., last week working on the high-profile inquiry with staffers.
“There’s some discombobulation, but part of what we’re trying to do is keep up the mission,” Barr said of the Justice Department’s commitment to proceed with criminal investigations, prioritize coronavirus-related fraud prosecutions, keep the justice system functioning amid court closures and trial suspensions, and pursue other Trump administration priorities during a deadly outbreak. Last week, Fox News reported that Durham was on pace to finish his "investigation of the investigators" by the summer. Rep.

For weeks, the media and Democrats alike have come down hard on President Trump for his allegations that he was “wiretapped” by Barack Obama, claiming he had no evidence such things took place. However, Evelyn Farkas is telling an entirely different story, and she would know a thing or two about it being a part of Obama’s cabinet. The Conservative Treehouse reported that Farkas was speaking with host Mika Brzezinski about the Obama administration’s frantic effort to “get as much intelligence” as they could about the Trump transition team before they were kicked out of the White House. take our poll - story continues below Completing this poll grants you access to AFF updates free of charge.

While ordinary Americans struggle to pay their bills, the Obama Administration’s State Department maintains a deeply troubling pattern of awarding access and favors to rich and powerful individuals and organizations. As Reuters notes in a January 2013 report, then Senator Kerry, whose net worth has been estimated to be between $184.3 million and $287.7 million, stated: “I will not participate personally and substantially in any particular matter that has a direct and predictable effect on my financial interests . . . unless I first obtain a written waiver.” Kerry’s statement echoes then Senator Hillary Clinton’s statement, which was issued before assuming office as Secretary of State, indicating that she was committed to the highest standards of ethical conduct for government officials.
The program, the Seed Global Health program helmed by Dr. Kerry, initially received a three-year contract worth $2 million in State Department money on September 10, 2012. Join the fight today. Both CNN and MSNBC Refuse to Air Senator Graham’s Full Opening Statement - Tennessee Star. By Debra Heine Senator Lindsey Graham gave a powerful opening statement to kick off Wednesday’s Senate Judiciary Committee hearing with Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz, but if you were watching CNN or MSNBC, you wouldn’t know it. Horowitz is on Capitol Hill to testify before senators about his report on the FBI’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and the Trump campaign’s ties to Russia. His report, published Monday, concluded that the investigation was adequately predicated and not influenced by bias, but his team found many disturbing deficiencies and inaccuracies in how the bureau conducted its probe.
Both MSNBC and CNN blocked their viewers from watching Graham’s entire opening statement. Apparently, MSNBC switched to full screen coverage the minute ranking Democrat Dianne Feinstein began her statement. Rather than covering Graham’s opening statement, CNN aired Rep. Prosecutors Surrender in Another Humiliating Defeat for Mueller & The Angry Democrats | Illicit Info. OPINION| Steven Ahle| This week the prosecutors of Concord Management and Consulting LLC and Concord Catering asked the judge to dismiss the charges against them.
Mueller accused the two companies of running a troll farm in order to help swing the election (allegedly). Mueller and Andrew Wessmann thought they had it made. They would simply charge the companies as well as civilians because they knew they could level charges they knew they couldn’t prove. They figured it wouldn’t matter because they would never come to the United States to defend themselves. Then Consulting LLC and Concord Catering hired a team of lawyers. The Mueller team went into a panic. Then the court-ordered discovery was met by the tired old adage that they could not turn over the evidence without damaging “national security.” But the other thing is that Concord Catering did not even exist yet when the election came and went. From Greg Jarrett: There’s a lot of mud on Robert Mueller’s face these days.

(Beirut) – Saudi Arabia’s new mass arrest of 298 government employees on suspicion of corruption raises human rights concerns, Human Rights Watch said today. Saudi authorities should immediately reveal the legal and evidentiary basis for each person’s detention and make certain that each person detained can exercise their due process rights. Saudi Arabia’s previous corruption crackdown, in November 2017, included the detention of dozens of prominent businessmen, royal family members, and current and former government officials for three months at the Ritz Carlton Hotel in Riyadh. While the people were in detention, the authorities pressured them to hand over assets to the state in exchange for their release, outside of any recognizable legal process. “The fight against corruption is no excuse for flagrant due process violations and preventing people from mounting an adequate defense,” said Michael Page, deputy Middle East director at Human Rights Watch.
California Man Sentenced to 4 Years in Prison for Acting as Agent of Chinese Intelligence Agency.
