"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.


Well, I guess Burr is a part of the resistance now.

Apparently the parts of the FISA that were redacted.

A republican head of the senate intelligence committee who has seen all of the redacted parts and doesn't think anything was done improperly. Go figure.

This is meaningless without him giving reasons.

And the way the Senate Intel Committee has conducted itself doesn't lend much credibility to them.

Probably classified.... I'm guessing we'll find out eventually.

Care to explain in your own words why you think this is the case?

Appeals to authority aren’t enough

Probably Burr is correct. National Security is our government's most critical function. But, they sure didn't use the same metrics when determining threats posed by Clinton and her cabal!!!

No one in the government had credibility with me right now until they earn it.

I want to see the full FISA application with no redactions.

Sure, from what all of the FISA experts I've seen and read, nothing out of the ordinary occurred in the process.

Most people in here will point to the DNC and Hillary Clinton not being specifically named in the FISA, but miss the point that NO ONE (besides Carter Page) is specifically named. The source's motivations were sufficiently outlined in the FISA
