Well, my fellow SIGforumites, this is really disturbing. Not surprising, just disturbing.

http://www.thegatewaypundit.com: Attorney General Lynch Signed Off on ALL FISA Applications to WireTap Trump

Jim Hoft Mar 7th, 2017

The FISA (Foreign Intelligence Surveillance) Court is in the news this weekend after President Trump tweeted that former President Obama had petitioned a court twice in order to wire tap current President Trump when he was running for office.

In his first tweet President Trump tweeted:

quote:
Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my “wires tapped” in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!

He next tweeted:

quote:
Is it legal for a sitting President to be “wire tapping” a race for president prior to an election? Turned down by court earlier. A NEW LOW!

Is it legal for a sitting President to be “wire tapping” a race for president prior to an election? Turned down by court earlier. A NEW LOW!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 4, 2017


The FISA Court was put in place in 1978 when Congress enacted the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA):

quote:
The Court sits in Washington D.C., and is composed of eleven federal district court judges who are designated by the Chief Justice of the United States. Each judge serves for a maximum of seven years and their terms are staggered to ensure continuity on the Court. By statute, the judges must be drawn from at least seven of the United States judicial circuits, and three of the judges must reside within 20 miles of the District of Columbia. Judges typically sit for one week at a time, on a rotating basis.

Pursuant to FISA, the Court entertains applications submitted by the United States Government for approval of electronic surveillance, physical search, and other investigative actions for foreign intelligence purposes. Most of the Court’s work is conducted ex parte as required by statute, and due to the need to protect classified national security information.


Every single judge on the FISA Court as of today was appointed during Obama’s Presidency!

Five of the current eleven judges on the court are scheduled to be on the court for President Trump’s entire first term with six of the judges’ terms expiring before January 2021. Seven of the judges are scheduled into the year 2020.



Current Chief Justice John Roberts has been in his role since 2005 and therefore he has appointed all the judges to the FISA court. Judge Roberts is famous for supporting Obamacare in two radical positions, one of which Justice Antonin Scalia, in his withering dissent, refered to as “applesauce”. Knowing this, it is concerning that Judge Roberts also is responsible for the makeup of the current FISA court.

Only two in over 10,000 applications were turned down by the FISA Court.

According to ABC News:

quote:
More than a thousand applications for electronic surveillance, all signed by the attorney general, are submitted each year, and the vast majority are approved. From 2009 to 2015, for example, more than 10,700 applications for electronic surveillance were submitted, and only one was denied in its entirety, according to annual reports sent to Congress. Another one was denied in part, and 17 were withdrawn by the government.


According to ABC, all applications to the FISA Court were signed off on by the Attorney General and therefore if any applications were processed in the past year, they were signed off on by Loretta Lynch. This means that Lynch signed off on any requests for wire tapping President Donald Trump during the Presidential race. This is disheartening knowing that she released a video over the weekend calling for the need for more marching, blood and death on the streets. This also means that she chose not to investigate the Clinton Foundation for illegal activities but rather signed an application to wire tap President Trump.

Finally, another very disturbing fact about the wire tapping request of President Trump is that the FISA Court turned down President Obama’s Administration’s first request to wire tap President Trump that was evidently signed off on by Attorney General Lynch. With only two applications denied out of 10,700 from 2009 through 2015, the fact that the Obama Administration’s application was denied by the FISA Court is very disturbing. The odds of this happening were 0.02%.

The Obama Presidency is now arguably the most corrupt in US history.

Was there an actual FISA warrant for a wiretap though concerning Trump? Now everyone is saying one didn't exist. Was there or wasn't there a FISA warrant?

The original report said there was a FISA application made twice, the second resulting in issuance of a FISA surveillance warrant.

I've seen people claiming Obama "could have ordered" surveillance without a warrant per 50 USC 1802(a). I have not seen anything claiming Obama used this authority.

The problem we have is FISA warrants are CLASSIFIED. All we get to know, years after the fact, is the total number applied for, and the total number approved.

Just watched Sean Spicer press conference. I don't know how much he's paid, but it sure as hell isnt enough. What a fucked up group of reporters (?) crammed in that room. With most having the objective of tripping him up and making DJT look bad. I really think he's doing a good job as PS.

France’s president and foreign minister have warned a French-Swiss cement firm against helping to build a southern border wall in the U.S., citing their “social… responsibilities”.

Thursday, the CEO of the LafargeHolcim group said they could work with U.S. President Donald J. Trump to fulfil his election promise. “We are here to supply our customers’ needs,” he said. “We don’t have a political view on things.”

However, Foreign Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault objected to the firm’s neutral stance, instructing them to “think carefully” about the decision.

“It [Lafarge] should reflect upon what its interests are. There are other clients who will be stunned by this,” Mr. Jean-Marc Ayrault told France Info radio.

“Lafarge says it doesn’t do politics… Very well, but I would say companies… also have social and environmental responsibilities,” added France’s top diplomat.

French President François Hollande also waded in, implying LafargeHolcim’s decision was somehow risky or wrong.

“I think there are markets where one must be cautious before declaring one’s candidacy,” Mr. Hollande told a news conference on the sidelines of a European Union (EU) summit in Brussels when asked about the issue.

Despite Mr. Hollande’s apparent opposition to Mr. Trump’s wall, a six-foot tall, concrete border wall has been constructed in Calais during his presidency to keep migrants out of British territory.

LafargeHolcim was created in 2015 by the merger of French and Swiss firms, and it hopes to cash in on the $1 trillion infrastructure investment programme president Trump has promised.

Mr. Olsen noted “there is going to be a significant increase in infrastructure spending”, insisting the company is “very well positioned to serve that demand”.

Along with other European premiers, France’s socialist leader has been vocal in his opposition to the new U.S. administration.

On Thursday, International Women’s Day, Mr. Hollande claimed female rights were “declining” in the U.S. He said “threats of backtracking” on women’s rights don’t just come from “emerging nations or countries under dictatorships, but also in developed and rich countries”.

The French president has previously described Mr. Trump as “challenging” and urged Europe to form a united front and provide a “firm” response to his presidency.
