Ie there was a new paradigm developing is using intel warrants to conduct criminal investigations, and the Trump Russia matter wasn't a one-off?
Well, they are Bates Stamped which is a document identification process used in legal proceedings.captkirk said:
Rumor is SDNY
The other thing that is quite weird is the capture of a phone call between Jay Sekulow (Trump attorney) and Giuliani (Trump attorney)? 702 query?3 Toed Pete said:
If you just thought that perhaps some FISA judges were duped rather than corrupt this should change that thinking.
Would it shock anyone if it comes out that the SDNY got a Title 1 FISA warrant on Rudy?aggiehawg said:The other thing that is quite weird is the capture of a phone call between Jay Sekulow (Trump attorney) and Giuliani (Trump attorney)? 702 query?3 Toed Pete said:

So Wray had to authorize this.Quote:
A national security letter (NSL) is an administrative subpoena issued by the United States government to gather information for national security purposes. NSLs do not require prior approval from a judge. The Stored Communications Act, Fair Credit Reporting Act, and Right to Financial Privacy Act authorize the United States government to seek such information that is "relevant" to authorized national security investigations. By law, NSLs can request only non-content information, for example, transactional records and phone numbers dialed, but never the content of telephone calls or e-mails.
NSLs typically contain a nondisclosure requirement forbidding the recipient of an NSL from disclosing that the FBI had requested the information. The nondisclosure provision must be authorized by the Director of the FBI, and only after he or she certifies "that otherwise there may result a danger to the national security of the United States; interference with a criminal, counterterrorism, or counterintelligence investigation; interference with diplomatic relations; or danger to the life or physical safety of any person." Moreover, a recipient of the NSL may still challenge the nondisclosure provision in federal court.
If in fact, those were obtained under a Nat Sec Letter. And not a FISA warrant or 702 query. Still doesn't explain the capture of a phone call between Sekulow and Rudy, without it being a FISA, unless Wray authorized a Nat Sec Letter against the President's lawyer, Giuliani.will25u said:
So doesn't look like FISA. And no contents.
How does any of this apply to Schiff and his "investigation?aggiehawg said:

My best guess. Guess some people really were steamed when Zelensky won and Yovanovitch was recalled.Quote:
interference with diplomatic relations;
Yeah, but the PRESIDENT is allowed to do this. You can't justify signing off on a NSL if the justification is that the President is exercising one of his Constitutionally enumerated powers.aggiehawg said:My best guess.

Starting to think this impeachment nonsense is a honeypot. Let schiff do what he wants and then when his head, dick, and ballsack are locked firmly into place, release the blade to slice them all off with one fell cut.

But that is exactly why it should be called for, regardless of the findings or admissions. There is such a thing as credibility too damaged. They should be rebuilt anyway -- even if ten courts say all the anti-Trump and pro-Democrat meddling in the 2016 election was legitimate.Hogties said:
Nothing will happen to anyone and no significant admission of wrong doing will be presented to the public. If the truth was reported and documented, the public would demand the FBI and the CIA and the FISA court be dismantled. Can't have that.
The institution will protect itself above all else.
This is the fundamental transformation Hussein gloated about. Sheer corruption. Chicago-style. I loathe that America-hating son of a *****.aggiehawg said:Do not disagree.
