AG Bill Barr is scheduled to meet with key Senators next week. While the media are attributing and framing the meeting toward Trump activity, it is more than likely one key purpose of the upcoming meeting is AG Barr advocating for quiet FISA renewal.

Keep in mind the deadline for the DOJ to respond to the FISA court about the abusive intelligence practices identified in the Horowitz report was February 5th, more than two weeks ago. The responses from the DOJ and FBI have not been made public.

FISA Court Order – FISA Court Notice of Extension.

My suspicion is a quiet agreement exists between the DOJ/FBI and FISA Court. It appears the DOJ is trying to get the FISA reauthorization passed before the FISC declassifies the corrective action outlined from the prior court order. This response would also include information about the “sequestering” of evidence gathered as a result of the now admitted fraudulent and misrepresented information within the FISA applications.

With that in mind, it is NOT accidental the Wall Street Journal publishes an article today about AG Barr’s position on FISA reauthorization. The White House wants structural reform; it appears the DOJ and FBI want considerably less than that.

They already snuck in the renewal. I knew this was coming up soon. I really thought they would have some sunlight and have a hearing telling us what they will do-at least...

This will sail through both houses of Congress, proving nobody outside of a handful of people actually give a damn about FISA and spying.

Yep. Keep in mind Wray changed things that people in outside FBI offices (not DC) get training on FISA handling; and dept heads now have to sign off as well as the FBI. Dir. and possibly the AG.

Never addressing what happens when they are in on it...

Where is Graham?

Thinking logically this tells me no one is going to jail for this; if they can't even seriously address this issue. (And Graham having some convoluted this will never happen again hearing down the road won't cut it)

Tapping Trump’s Anger About 2016 Surveillance, White House Seeks Overhaul of Spying Law

Effort is spurred by president’s criticism of the investigation of former campaign adviser Carter Page

quote:

With the terminal deadline for FISA reauthorization rapidly approaching; and with serious abuses identified within the system of the FISA court, specifically as they pertain to the targeting of American citizens; there have been no public hearings or congressional discussions about the FISA process and the outlined fourth amendment violations.

Earlier today exiting House Judiciary Ranking member Doug Collins (being replaced by Jim Jordan) appeared on Fox News with Maria Bartiromo and warned of House mark-up hearings to advance the renewal without any public input or reform discussion. WATCH: VIDEO

Graham will question all of those that Durham is investigating. How can he haul them in or hear they plead da fif if they are in/on their way to prison?
