Spying is what it was. It was outside legal realms. The FISA warrant was fraudulent.UPDATE!
Barr says 'spying' took place on Trump campaign
In later remarks, Barr attempted to clarify his statement, saying he was concerned that “improper surveillance” may have occurred in 2016 and he was "looking into it."
"I am not saying that improper surveillance occurred. I'm saying that I am concerned about it and looking into it. That's all," he said.
Barr downplayed recent reports that he had formed a team to investigate the FBI’s actions in the original Russia counterintelligence probe, but said he had in mind bringing “some colleagues” together to review information turned up by the inspector general investigation, as well as Republican-led congressional probes to determine whether there is a need for further investigation at the Justice Department.
he already did much harm by calling it spying, which has a nefarious connotation of being done outside of legal realms, instead or surveillance or intercepts that were gotten through a court order....And Barr himself said he has no plans to open a full blown investigation. Sadly for rightards, their hopes and dreams are dashed once again.The Carter Page FISA Warrant (Spying) is being reviewed and the origins of the counter intelligence investigation, by the Justice Dept's IG, as it should be.Q: If the Democrats can spend two years chasing nothing, how can they deny that this investigation is warranted?
A: They cannot. At this point they have to justify the Mueller debacle, and must also bear scrutiny for why it ever began.
I can hear the Democrats screaming "Witch Hunt" already, and it sounds pretty sweet to me.
Barr testifies 'spying did occur' on Trump campaign
"I think spying did occur. The question is whether it was adequately predicated. … I think it’s my obligation. Congress is usually very concerned with intelligence agencies and law enforcement agencies staying in their proper lane," he testified before a Senate Appropriations subcommittee, while noting that "spying on a political campaign is a big deal."
While vowing to release Special Counsel Robert Mueller's now-completed Russia report in a matter of days, Barr also announced Tuesday that he was reviewing the origins of the Russia investigation at the FBI and the Justice Department.
I have no problem with that....
Gawd almighty, this guy is a hand picked Trump licker, a damn shame...
he gave trump some talking points again
