John Solomon picked up on a remarkable 21-word statement by left-leaning Judge James A. Boasberg, Chief of the Foreign Intelligence Court (FISC). It countered all of the FBI’s and Democrat media’s narrative about ‘errors’ in the FISA warrants issued on Carter Page.
No one else has bothered to report this. Only John Solomon is publicizing it, which makes him a target. He’s been belittled and demonized, even by the petty little host of Fox’s Sunday show, The Revolution.
The narrative is that the 17 errors found in issuing the FISA warrants on Carter Page, as described in the FISA report, were only mistakes and ommissions. The Judge says otherwise.
Mr. Solomon writes that “in just 21 words, Boasberg provided the first judicial declaration the FBI had misled the court, not just committed process errors.”
Boasberg wrote: There is thus little doubt that the government breached its duty of candor to the Court with respect to those applications.
Lack of candor is a nice way to say they were dishonest and lied.
Boasberg adds that The frequency and seriousness of these errors in a case that, given its sensitive nature, had an unusually high level of review at both DOJ and the Federal Bureau of Investigation have called into question the reliability of the information proffered in other FBI applications.
In other words, there was a lot of review by the top administrators at the two agencies and he suggests none of this could possibly be errors.
Solomon explains: Boasberg’s ruling was far more than a temporary suspension of FBI personnel’s participation in the FISA court. It is the first and only judicial finding in the Russia case that the FBI vastly misled the nation’s intelligence court and that blame must be shouldered by federal law enforcement’s top leaders, many of whom have spent much of the last three years trying to escape such accountability.
Solomon continues: But of more importance was “his language pinning responsibility for FISA abuses squarely on senior officials, not just lower-level line agents and lawyers who prepared the warrant applications. In other words, he is worried the bad conduct exhibited by the FBI may extend to more cases affecting others’ civil liberties.”
People like Rod Rosenstein (former acting AG), Jim Comey (former FBI director), Andrew McCabe (former deputy), Sally Yates (former acting AG), willfully misled the court with warrants they oversaw and signed.
While the report by Boasberg was generally reported by the media last week, they basically ignored the part that assigns guilt. Meanwhile, Lindsey Graham, Nancy Pelosi, and other cowards and connivers are demanding the FISC be approved in a clean bill. They are pressuring the President to sign it.
For his part, Judge Boasberg is demanding more than the changes offered by FBI Director Wray.
The Judge wrote that “the errors the OIG pointed out cannot be solved through procedures alone. DOJ and the FBI, including all personnel involved in the FISA process, must fully understand and embrace the heightened duties of probity and transparency that apply in ex parte proceedings.”
A judge, a left-wing judge, who tells the truth. That is something that can’t be said about people like the Inspector General who refused to call the frauds out for what they are. It can’t be said about those in power who won’t prosecute these people who tried to take down a presidency.
Judge Boasberg is a hero.

Comey and Mueller have seen to it a lot of people questioned multiple times by the FBI who didn’t remember their exact previous answers were prosecuted and did jail time for “lying to the FBI.” I wonder if those FBI agents who lied to the FISA court could be “sent up the river” too. Or if the FISA court would even pursue charges. Probably not.

Evidently Barr is lobbying heavily for continuing FISA as it is.
I’m beginning to believe Barr is pulling a Sessions on us. He farms out these cases to different US attorneys across the nation in the same manner as Huber.
When Durham, and the others, come back with nothing Graham will praise the effort the same as he did for Mueller. What a bunch of snakes. Trump’s snake story applies MORE to Congress these days.
There’s no FISA reform on the horizon. Since Graham, and the rest for that matter, are unwilling to even consider reforming FISA then, be assured, no one will be held accountable either.
Since Congress is behind keeping the status quo who can discount the idea of conspiracy theories. From what we know of public information there is no doubt in my mind an attempted coup was and had taken place. Because of what has been revealed it warrants a second look at conspiracies against JFK and a few others. The only part we don’t know is to what extent and how deep is this rabbit hole. Clearly it is as deep as the NSC and a number of players in that arena. It would be foolish to believe this effort has subsided. And those in Congress are “co-conspirators” behind that effort, which is understandable since many of them DID believe Trump was some kind of Russian agent. This is beyond Stupidity and shows those individuals aren’t competent enough to be in office. All one has to know is Trump’s history of comments going back decades to understand this simple reality. What it tells me is guilt by projection, because the majority of Congress would sell out this country for their own personal benefit. Look no further than McConnell and his family ties to China and the wealth gained. The remaining question IS; how many of those who served in Congress LEFT Washington.
It’s good to hear the new chief judge admit this. The previous chief judge made a more forceful statement which extended beyond the applications to spy on Trump.
Nothing will motivate Barr to do anything. He has all the reasons any decent person needs to file indictments.
