Lawyer up, Jim Comey

I do not know much about federal judges. I do know that they have enormous power. I also know that they do not like to be lied to.

Jimmy the Weasel Comey may have lied to Judge Rosemary Mayers Collyer, a senior judge on the D.C. Circuit who just happens to be the head of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, which just happens to issue those FISA warrants to spy on American citizens.

Obama used FISA warrants to spy on Donald John Trump's presidential campaign.

Now those chickens are coming home to roost, as Obama's spiritual mentor might put it.

Joseph diGenova is the former U. S. Attorney for the District of Columbia and a former legal counsel to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. Earlier this week he was on Laura IIngraham’s show on Fox News.

He said new Attorney General Bill Barr will investigate how the FBI got into the business of spying on and trying to infiltrate the Trump campaign. Barr told Congress this weeks ago.

But diGenova also said, "There’s another report that everybody has forgotten about that involves James Comey alone. That will be out in two weeks. That report is going to be a bombshell. It’s going to open the investigation on a very high note.

"The FISA Court abuse is the center of this entire abuse of governmental power. The Chief Judge of that court has already ruled that the FBI broke the law and that the people at the head of the [Obama] Justice Department — [former Deputy Attorney General] Sally Yates, John Carlin, the Assistant Attorney General for National Security, all knew about it and lied to the court, the FISA Court, about it."

But President Trump has known since the election about how Obama and his henchmen (and women) turned the FBI into the KGB.

DiGenova said, "There is a hero in this entire story, and it’s not a lawyer. All the bad people in this story are lawyers. There’s a hero. His name is Admiral Mike Rogers. He was the head of the National Security Agency. He discovered the illegal spying. He went personally to the FISA Court and briefed the Chief Judge and worked with her for months to uncover the people who did it. The FISA Court has already told the Justice department who lied to that court and that has been given to Bill Barr already."

Admiral Rogers met with President-elect Trump in November 2016. Rogers did not tell Obama about the meeting. Obama was outraged. Foreign Policy columnist James Bamford gave the Democrat spin to NPR.

Bamford said, "I don't know what the rules are, but it certainly is unethical, I would think, to quietly sneak off to New York and meet with an incoming administration without even having the courtesy of telling them that you're going to do it."

Gee, a spy sneaks around.

George Parry is a former prosecutor at both the state and federal levels.

He wrote, "The Watergate burglary was a bungled attempt by the Committee to Re-Elect President Nixon to break into Democrat headquarters to plant listening devices in the telephones. The burglary failed, but the national outrage at the mere attempt drove Nixon from office and sent members of his administration to prison. As bad as that was, at least the Nixon campaign didn’t corrupt the FBI and CIA to do its dirty work. So it is that, if our official law enforcement and intelligence agencies were co-opted by the Obama administration to illegally spy on American citizens and the opposition party, this will be the worst governmental scandal and threat to our civil liberties in the history of the nation.

"If Joe diGenova is right, the very survival of the rule of law and our constitutional republic mandates that these treasonous thugs — no matter how highly placed in the Obama administration — be exposed, charged, and imprisoned."

We shall see if there is enough evidence to nail Comey and the rest of the pack of rats.

In the meantime, I suggest Comey lawyer up. The U.S. attorney working with the Department of Justice's inspector general will soon issue his report. Barr is investigating. And that FISA court report is coming sometime this month.

Of all his possible crimes, lying to Judge Collyer is the most troublesome.
