FISA Court Calls Out FBI for Corruption

Presiding Judge Rosemary M. Collyer of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISA) has given the FBI until January 10, 2020 to come up with a proposal that answers “irregularities” in its past actions.

In what The New York Times called an “extraordinary public order” the court response was to the “scathing” findings released last week by the Justice Department’s independent inspector general concerning the Bureau’s wiretapping of Carter Page during its Russia investigation.

Judge Collyer wrote:

The frequency with which representations made by F.B.I. personnel turned out to be unsupported or contradicted by information in their possession, and with which they withheld information detrimental to their case, calls into question whether information contained in other F.B.I. applications is reliable.

 

FBI Director Christopher A. Wray called conduct described of “certain employees” in the IG’s report “unacceptable and unrepresentative of the F.B.I. as an institution.” Wray said he had ordered “more than 40 corrective steps” to address the problems uncovered during the IG’s investigation.

Republican Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina said, “The FISA system, to survive, has to be reformed.”

Though he at first said he had not found any political bias at the FBI, IG Horwitz told the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee yesterday he had found bias that needs to be dealt with.
