... and a great way to feel humbled about your lack of knowledge of such things.

He did a great job laying that out. I believe in the end, the Judge whom authorizes the act is responsible for verifying and endorsing the approval. This is where it gets sketchy. The judge may have to answer if and when assuming they are alive. I also suspect this is a reason we see ABJ and the 9th circuit judges being allowed to run rampant with outrageous decisions stretching their power and impacting POTUS and cases like Flynns and Stones. Its for optics and emphasis. Its going to be a hell of a storm.

Wyatt, Austere Deplorable on Twitter: "Obama tried 3 times to get permission to spy on Trump, but was denied by the courts. Barry was even denied by the FISA courts - which is a extreme rarity. Only when Obama lied to the courts and hid the fact that he'd be spying on Trump himself did the FISA agree to this sedition."

Can a President be charged with a crime? Only once out of office. Robert Mueller himself told me this simple fact

I wonder who this guy is. It would appear that he is 'on the inside' somewhere.

I'm guessing he's gleaned this info due to the question posed against Mueller about if Trump could be indicted AFTER his term was up to which he responded in the affirmative.

Rare is an understatement:

Since 1979 through to 2015, the last round of reporting figures, the court has approved 38,365 warrants but only rejected a dozen. That's a rejection rate of 0.031 percent.

https://www.zdnet.com/article/us-spy-court-didnt-reject-a-single-secret-government-demand-for-data/

To be fair the other presidents would have then had a rate of 1.28 rejections per term where Obama had a rate of 1.5 rejections per term.

The big problem here is not so much the rejections but that the orders were sought against a political rival.

I remember when i first learned that the fisa court had turned down these requests--I was shocked. FISA court has been termed a rubber stamp court by so many historians that I figured they didn't turn anything down, That's how rare. You only need the slimmest appearance of evidence--which means they didn't even have that.

Thank you. Reminded me of this Admiral Mike Rogers video testifying before Congress on "unmasking".
