We knew all this for 3 years. The press even defended the spying as the FBI had people planted to "protect Trump from the Russians"

Keep in mind, the FISA allowed them to go over all his past communications, private records, emails, phone calls, etc. So they were able to look at stuff from when he was part of the campaign. What's more, I haven't heard if the traditional 2 hop rule was in effect which allows them to do the same to everyone he communicated with and everyone those people communicated with.

Better yet...How is that not partisan?

Because unless someone flat out tells Horowitz they did it for partisan reasons he's gonna give them the benefit of the doubt. So a lawyer who falsified a Carter Page email to get a FISA renewal on him, and texted "Viva Le Resistance!" to a friend, he totally wasn't motivated by bias against Trump to frame Page because he didn't admit as much. ? It's a total joke.

It's the Democratic word game. It wasn't spying, it was just surveillance.

It is spying. They're just calling it "surveillance."

It is spying. They did falsify evidence. They did withhold exculpatory evidence. They did move forward knowing everything was bullshit. But since Horowitz added that it wasnt done with any bias, that means everythings ok. Fucking Horowitz, he gave the swamp just enough to deflect.

That FBI lawyer who falsified the email concerning Carter Page so they could keep the FISA surveillance of Page going texted a friend, "Viva Le Resistance!", but he totally wasn't motivated by bias when it came to framing Page. Sure thing Horowitz. ?

Reminds me of all those stories of a black person beating the shit out of a white person while screaming he hates white people, and was concluded that it wasnt a hate crime. Or when a muslim yells "allah akbar" before killing a bunch of people and they say "motives are unknown".

What if?

Horowitz report concludes that there were two CHS from an unnamed government agency in the Trump campaign. One of which the FBI learned of before the election, a second they learned of after. They didn't disclose either to FISC. Not sure which is which, but that's likely them.
