No hearing is an issue in general.

This said, FISC doesn’t typically hold hearings, it’s almost exclusively done in writing.

What does it say about the author of this nothingburger to fail to mention the above but instead say the following:

quote:

“It is disturbing that the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance courts rubber-stamped the Carter Page spy warrants and held not one hearing on these extraordinary requests to spy on the Trump team,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “Perhaps the court can now hold hearings on how justice was corrupted by material omissions that Hillary Clinton’s campaign, the DNC, a conflicted Bruce Ohr, a compromised Christopher Steele, and anti-Trumper Peter Strzok were all behind the ‘intelligence’ used to persuade the courts to approve the FISA warrants that targeted the Trump team.”

There are no doubt some primo bumpable threads with Trump haters going through in painstaking detail how arduous the fisa warrant process is.

I remember one about how 99.98% request acceptance rate was proof of how thorough the preparation ahead of the requests was. Plenty of posts about how the judges are very critical of evidence during the hearings.

This doesn't help the case of the rumors that "there was a judge supposedly in on it."

How was this not reported by one of the several congressional investigations that looked into this?

Until Trump lifts a finger to release the entire FISA warrant, this is just irrelevant noise.

To be fair this is more the fault of the FISC than the applicant.

Trump should never have renewed FISA 702. Wtf

She's the chief judge. There are only 3 FISC judges in DC. One of them is Rudolph 'Rudy' Contreras, a friend of Strzok.

And this leads to more oddities with this story:
"A source tells the Journal all four FBI requests were reviewed by four different judges" This would be impossible given there are only 3 of them in DC.

"Judge Rudolph Contreras is a FISA judge and the original DC circuit presiding judge who accepted the Mike Flynn plea (Dec. 1, 2017) and then ‘was recused’ five days later."

"Either the WSJ source is incorrect, or the greater likelihood is the DOJ was strategically approaching a different FISA judge each time." And going outside of DC to do it.

This will continue to happen until the FISC is abolished in its entirety.
