| Subject: The Corrupt FBI didn’t break the law to spy on just Trump. It does it to everyone Wed Apr 01, 2020 11:17 pm | |
| President Trump and his team have used the illegal surveillance of former Trump campaign associate Carter Page to argue that there is a “deep state” bias against his administration, but a newly revealed audit conducted by the Justice Department shows this might not be true. In fact, the FBI routinely abuses the law in how it spies on most of its targets. The New York Times reported Tuesday: “An inspector general uncovered pervasive problems in the F.B.I.’s preparation of wiretap applications, according to a memo released Tuesday about an audit that grew out of a damning report last year about errors and omissions in applications to target a former Trump campaign adviser during the Russia investigation.” “The follow-up audit of unrelated cases by the Justice Department’s independent watchdog, Michael E. Horowitz, revealed a broader pattern of sloppiness by the F.B.I. in seeking permission to use powerful tools to eavesdrop on American soil in national security cases,” the newspaper continued.
