You got it.
Exactly...just like Hannity (LOL, sorry libs) was saying with his Legal/Intelligence experts. They kept info out of their 302's and hid it from Congress...
Furthermore,
How do we know there was really a problem in the FBI and the DOJ?
Read the unclassified decision https://www.dni.gov/files/documents/icotr/51117/2016_Cert_FISC_Memo_Opin_Order_Apr_2017.pdf of the special super-secret FISA Court especially beginning at page 83. The FISA Court oversees our spy agencies and the massive data collection operations of our federal government. It operates in utmost secrecy too much secrecy.
The unclassified FISA court decision reveals major violations by the FBI. The FBI gave private contractors illegal access to the all of the raw data collected by the NSA. The Court noted an institutional lack of candor on NSAs part and emphasized that this is a very serious Fourth Amendment issue.----the media doesn't seem to talk about that much!
Apparently, the saga for the court began on March 9, 2016, when DOJ oversight personnel conducting a minimization review of the FBIs *** [redacted] learned that the FBI had disclosed raw FISA information, including but not limited to Section 702-acquired information.
Reading between the redactions, that disclosure involved an entity largely staffed by private contractors.
On top of that, certain *** [redacted] contractors had access to raw FISA information on FBI storage systems. ***[redacted] the ***[redacted] contractors had access to raw FISA information that went well beyond what was necessary to respond to the FBIs requests.
According to the Court, the FBI discontinued the above-described access to raw FISA information as of April 18, 2016.
The court continued, noting Restrictions were not in place with regard to the *** [redacted] contractors; their access was not limited to raw information for which the FBI sought assistance and access continued even after they had completed their work in response to an FBI request.
The court catalogues a separate violation by the FBI, but most of it is redacted. Footnote 68 of the Courts decision includes the statement that
the government acknowledges that those disclosures were improper for other reasons.
It gets worse. The court wrote in Footnote 69 that improper access granted to the * * *[redacted] contractors . . . * * *[redacted] . . . seems to have been the result of deliberate decision-making. * * *[redacted] access to FBI systems was the subject of an interagency memorandum of understanding (presumably prepared or reviewed by FBI lawyers), no notice of this practice was given to the FISC until 2016.
So basically, private contractors (can you say potentially Christopher Steele, FusionGPS, CrowdStrike?) were given improper access.
But hey, Hannity and his legal and former intelligence hacks, what do they know ?
