Page 29 - Fisa Application News Today

Fisa application for the warrent steel was never told about the political motivations behind his work. also remember, he hates donald trump also. the fbi again flat out lied and what we can only assume is that it was an effort to make the steel more credible as they wer. they never bothered to verify, corroborate the fake news dossier which is mandated in fisa law. its part of the fbis own protocols. also, the fisa application was denied the first time. the dossier was brought in to put the requ...
