Ex-FBI boss has 'grave concern' FISA court was 'defrauded intentionally' in Russia probe
[Just the News] I have grave concern that the court was defrauded intentionally ... There was some type of agenda, an inappropriate agenda beyond an objective intelligence or criminal investigation," said Kevin Brock, a retired FBI assistant director for Intelligence who helped implement most of the intelligence and informant rules the FBI uses today.

"I struggle to find any other explanation," Brock told the John Solomon Reports podcast. "Any other explanation just doesn't pass the smell test. I mean, the glaring — the Steele dossier, for an experienced counterintelligence agent in the field, was blinking red lights Russian disinformation campaign, and yet you're going to have the highest levels of the FBI executives use that to create an investigation?"

Brock believes the FISA reforms that FBI Director Christopher Wray has implemented are well intentioned and legitimate, and that the current FBI repudiates what the Comey FBI did during the Russia case. "I have been in audiences where the director has spoken — not open to the press — that reassured me greatly that he was just as taken aback by all that occurred under the Comey administration. So I am heartened by that."

The biggest challenge for the FBI, he said, is finding the right balance between technology that can solve crimes and thwart attacks, and the protection of personal liberty.

How about the Hillary Clinton "explanation"... or do you not wish to go there ?

#3 Not a single bench warrant from the defrauded judges. Not to mention how many FISA judges where Robert's appointments. Impeach the lot.
