Barr says he'll make surveillance reforms after damning watchdog report
By Jordain Carney - 02/25/20 02:54 PM EST

Attorney General William Barr told Senate Republicans during a closed-door caucus lunch on Tuesday that he wants to make changes to the shadowy court process at the center of a damning watchdog report on surveillance efforts involving the Trump campaign in 2016.
 
Barr told GOP senators that he wants to use the regulatory process to make changes to the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance (FISA) Court, according to several who attended the meeting.
 
"He went over his recommendations and some internal reforms about FISA warrant application and surveillance technology being used," said Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.). "He's going to do some things that he can do."
 
Sen. Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.) added that Barr "talked about things he would ... like to make through regulation."

Sure he will. Tomorrow...
His statement reads like the age-old blowoff, "I'll take that under advisement."
Which is a business polite way of saying, 'Not a chance.'

If Trump hadn't hired his Russian stooge to run his campaign.  The guy (Paul Manafort) who had already been under investigation since 2014.  That along with that meeting.   *****rollingeyes*****

He takes no responsibility for who he hires?  And what kind of meetings he has in Trump Tower.  Walks like a duck it is a duck.  He threw it all out there and it was a baited line.  His comments about Russia.  Who he hired, and the meetings with the Russians.  What do you expect?

Mueller report never convicted or exonerated him.

Stop falling for, and aping the Democrat spin.  Prosecutors don't "exonerate," they either indict or they don't.

Nothing he does will stop an FBI hellbent on violating the law, and then not having to answer for their transgressions.

In my mindset, what the entire cabal did was sedition and treason, all of them right up to and including Obama, and all should be indicted, convicted and publicly dispatched.  What they did was so heinous that if they are not brought forth to answer for their extreme crimes against the republic, I guarantee it will happen again.  Perhaps as soon as 2020's election.

I fully support the elimination of the FBI and their being folded into Homeland, with no one above first line supervisor being retained.  Rift the rest, and good riddance.

Are you aware that the Obama DOJ looked at these same Manifort charges before and decided not to prosecute @Chosen Daughter ?  Asking for a friend.

I don't care.  I lose respect for them too.  I stand by my comments.  He hires a Russian stooge that's been under investigation since 2014 and is shocked that they surveilled his Russian meeting.   *****rollingeyes*****

No, I wasn't but regardless in vetting a campaign manager you wouldn't have chosen the one that had been under investigation.  I have said it before Manafort was the Democrats Russian man too.  Why do you think they surveilled?  They know.  I just think Hillary was jealous that Paul was working for Trump.  They knew all about him and it gave them the opportunity.  And stupid as the Republicans are these days they didn't tell the Republican candidate not to choose the Russian stooge.

They couldn't convict because they all had been involved with him, and Russia too.

Manifort was NOT under investigation. He had been previously cleared by DOJ and no prosecution was undertaken until Trump arrived on the scene. Pretty darned CS way of doing business on the part of the DOJ if you ask me! In fact, that sort of thing was unheard of previously. But you are free to continue reading and repeating Democrat talking points if that is what you want to do.

Does this mean that nobody...not a single person was taken down into the FBI basement and double-tapped...cremated?     :shrug:
