Adam Schiffty: Steele dossier's political motivation WAS disclosed in FISA application

According to an official cited in the Post on Friday, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the matter's sensitivity, the Justice Department presented "ample disclosure of relevant, material facts," to the FISA court, including that "the research was being paid for by a political entity."

The New York Times also reported Friday that the FISA court was told about political motivations behind the dossier.

The Wall Street Journal further reported that, according to a person familiar with the matter, the FISA application disclosed that Steele was paid by a law firm working for a major political party......

Looking at the sources covering this...CNN, WaPo, NYT, WSJ and Schiff himself...that's enough for me to form an opinion that this is just more libtarded fantasy make believe keep us outta jail nonsense.

Shiffty is such a weasel.......

Likely, ya!



Schiff disputed the memo’s assertion as “not accurate,” saying the court was aware that there was a “likely political motivation” behind the Steele dossier.

The California Democrat also said it is normal in FISA applications not to name individuals who may be sources of information.

Exactly, now knowing who the left has weaponized the media....


Great to see ya!

You too ;-}


Yep, once your eyes and ears are opened to their propaganda you will filter every word they say before even thinking about lending credence to it.

How did they know what was in the FISA application?

Who leaked this info to them?

It could only be someone who had specific knowledge, who knew what would make it a “legal” application and someone who was covering their ass.




The Washington Post, New York Times and Wall Street Journal reported after the memo’s release that the FISA court was aware of political motivations behind the dossier.

That's the defense strategy? Shift blame to a corrupt judiciary? So the election rigging FBI writes up a bogus warrant based on made up shit and then gets a compliant judge to rubber stamp it and we're supposed to think it's copacetic?

Jesus, these guys have been drinking the Kool-Aid so long they no longer understand reality.

So the Dems have already leaked their memo to their buddies....

The New York Times also reported Friday that the FISA court was told about political motivations behind the dossier.

A Democratic memo written to rebut the allegations in Nunes’ document said the FBI did, in fact, tell the court that the information in the Steele dossier was politically motivated, even if the bureau didn’t mention that research that went into the dossier was paid for by Democrats, the Times reported, citing two people familiar with the Democratic memo.

The Wall Street Journal further reported that, according to a person familiar with the matter, the FISA application disclosed that Steele was paid by a law firm working for a major political party......

We should be hearing from the court soon I would imagine.....

Now Schiffty has msm backing him up....

And he thinks that sounds better? The courts knew it was a partisan witch hunt and were fine and dandy with that? String them all up!

(Oh, and release all the supporting documents, if you think it helps your case, Shiff for Brains)

So now they're attempting to blame the judge?

Can't we just lock these bastards up yet?

They judges that were appointed during the Obama years no less...

5 more memos slated to come out

Dems outing today to release their little memo

A panicking mind rarely thinks straight...he's just stepped into even more shit by either making this up or divulging evidence that was legally protected via the FISA process.

A list of the Judges on the FISA court. Please look at their dates of designation. Need I say more???

It’s unreal isn’t it?

If a judge knew it was Hillary op research on trump and they they granted the warrant, this is much deeper than we imagine

Thanks for the pin LJS !

I’ve been posting that link all over too, lol, was just about to repost it

And they have roped in the msm, again, to help do their dirty work.

No way msm would know what was in those apps unles it was leaked to them

Are they using this as a defense?

What a dumb ass. He just made the case for treason.

It appears it’s part of their memo, yes

:dis1:

Just a question - did Devon Nunes actually read the FISA application? CNN says NO!

How is this possible?

He claims it’s not unusual for the courts not to be given names?




They just walk in and say we want to spy on someone who may be a political figure but we aren’t telling you who


Ummmmmkay.....

The devil made them do it , is about the only lame defense not tried by democrats now.

You would think they would be advised by council to not talk.

Nunes, the chairman of the committee, brushed off news reports that accused him of not seeing the underlying documents as “bogus.”


He explained that the committee set up an agreement with the Justice Department that would allow just one person to review the documents.

Nunes said he thought Gowdy would be the best choice because of his background as a federal prosecutor, and that Gowdy then shared his notes and observations with the rest of the members.

Not when they can put their own spin on it and msm spews it for them, in favor of them...
