POTUS Drops Bomb on Deep State: Illicit Actions Revealed – Obama Admin Caught in Act Spying on Political Opponent
2018-09-02
[Gateway Pundit] On Monday evening Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) revealed Congressional investigators have learned the FBI and DOJ previously leaked information to the press then used those same press stories as a separate source to justify seeking FISA warrants on Trump advisor Carter Page. They knew all along the story was bogus and planted the evidence in the liberal media.

On Friday conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch dropped another bombshell. The Justice Department admitted in a court filing that the FISA Court never held hearings on the FISA applications for former Trump advisor Carter Page.
Emphasis added
Now it appears and is likely that the Obama administration bypassed the FISA Court to spy on the Trump campaign based on a story they knew to be false.

ImperatorRex on Twitter explained how the Obama administration went around the FISA Court to spy on the opposition party based on lies they helped push in the liberal fake news media.

#7  Ref #6: I think you may have nailed it SPOD.

I suspect the trail will eventually lead from Nellie Ohr and to Steele, to Brennan, then Obama and Clinton.

#6  Methinks the spying was started first and these phoney FISA warrants were prepared to paper over and conceal the start date of the spying. I would not be surprised if the spying started as soon as Trump won his first primary over Cruz and Rubio.
As for the FISA judge that recused himself. I bet the FISA warrants were prepared, taken to his office and he signed them without examination because he is part of the true believers that form the cabal.
This is getting messier and messier for the deep state and now they are compounding lie on top of lie to obscure what they have done.
Everyone who was a party to the preparation of the FISA warrants should be fired and the judges that signed them should be removed from the FISA court.

#5  Fire and jail the FISA court head jug. Forget her name but she has refused to review and expose the treason players.

#3  I wonder if GEOTUS is pressuring sessions to make sure this comes out so hard even the MSM can't ignore it during the October run up to the mid-terms.

#2  ...Would I be correct in assuming that this sort of thing means that the Administration is confident of - if not necessarily overwhelming victory - at least holding the line?

#1  Perhaps we should be prepared to learn that FISA warrants were not used at all.
