Senate Intelligence Committee Chair, Richard Burr (R-NC) disagrees with his House Committee counterpart Devin Nunes on the appropriateness of the FISA warrants.

Quote:
”I don't think I ever expressed that I thought the FISA application came up short," Burr said when asked about House Republican memo alleging FBI and Justice Department abuses of the FISA process. "There (were) sound reasons as to why judges issued the FISA."
Burr's comments once again put him at odds with House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, who spearheaded the memo on FISA abuses.

Not everyone is willing to sign off on the lies and distortions du jour.

Awkward.

In all honesty I think some of the Republicans have figured out that the FBI and CIA are done playing around. Its one thing to play political games, but the politicians have gone too far. Burr is recognizing that political games stop being games to the FBI and others when they rise to the level of obstructing justice.

Also a ton of folks are starting to get REALLY upset about this. Not just the poors, but the connected and wealthy too. You know, the people who matter.

The lies and distortions were the steel dossier that the judges signed off on

Thats was a trivial part of the hundreds of pages of documentation, and that didnt help show that the initial one got valuable intelligence-a requirement of all 3 of the extensions.

He's in good company in the house, I hope the democrats can take it so they can get back to investigating real threats rather than the FBI.

Burr and the Senate Intel Committee are the most corrupt of all the committees in DC.

This is the committee where Diane Feinstein released the transcript of Fusion GPS's Glenn Simpson congressional testimony without approval.

The same committee where chief staffer Daniel Jones raised $50 million to continue paying Fusion GPS to investigate Trump AFTER the election.

The same committee where Co-chair Mark Warner was caught trying to set up a secret meeting with Christopher Steele. Warner told Steele's lawyer that they needed to keep it hidden from the R's on the committee. Steele's lawyer is no dummy so he said Steele would only meet him if Warner would put it in writing. Warner refused because it would have left a paper trail.

The same committee where Burr's Security Director James Wolfe was arrested for leaking to his info-for-sex partner Ali Watkins of the NYT.

Now we know that on the exact same day that Warner was trying to set up the secret meeting with Steele, Burr's Security Director James Wolfe received a copy of the Carter Page FISA application and leaked it to the NYT.

The Senate Intel Committee desperately wants the Trump/Russia collusion hoax to move forward because they're part of the hoax.

Since no one will touch this question in the other thread I'll ask it here....

Yes or no? Was the Russian 'dossier' "verified as accurate" at the time of the original FISA application?

How many times and in how many ways can you ask this question? There have been numerous posts about this subject. But you don't care. So I look forward to yet another thread of yours about the issue of the dossier and the FISA warrant. Knock yourself out.
