To understand the larger FISA 702(16)(17) issues in 2016 it is important to focus on the word\u00a0<strong>\u201ccompartmented\u201d<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Intelligence information is housed by compartments within the larger intelligence community network. Each intelligence unit holds intelligence unique to that compartment and task. The FBI Counterintelligence unit would hold the intelligence information specific to their task or assignment; the DOJ National Security Division would hold their own compartmented intelligence; again, specific to their task and objectives. So too would the DOJ, DoD (Pentagon), State Dept., or CIA.<\/p>\n<p>This compartmented structure is what led to the creation of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, ODNI. The 911 commission recommended the office to serve as a hub able to ensure intelligence sharing; that is \u2013 to ensure intelligence was not intentionally withheld from other compartments when needed.<\/p>\n<p>In 2016 the ODNI for President Obama was James Clapper.<\/p>\n<p>It is doubtful the 911 commission ever gave thought to what might happen when intelligence is weaponized as a political tool. The DNI is a political appointment, a cabinet member, of the President.\u00a0 If the executive branch, the President, wanted to weaponize intelligence as a political tool, he\/she would have control over such weaponization as an outcome of their political appointees within the: FBI (Comey, McCabe), DOJ (Lynch\/Yates), CIA (Brennan), DNI (Clapper), or DoD (Ash Carter), etc.<\/p>\n<p>The civilian (representative) oversight into the compartmented intelligence falls to a very select group known as the\u00a0<strong>Intelligence Gang of Eight<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Four Democrats and Four Republicans (four minority party and four majority party political leaders) for a total of eight. Four from the House and Four from the Senate. \u2013<a href=\"http:\/\/theconservativetreehouse.com\/2017\/01\/02\/united-states-national-intelligence-oversight-the-gang-of-eight\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Understand the Gang of Eight Here<\/a>\u2013 The Gang-of-Eight can, if they choose, interact with the intelligence product with the same level of security clearance as the compartment being reviewed.<\/p>\n<p>Only these eight members can interact with the intelligence product in this way. This ensures their ability to conduct oversight.<\/p>\n<p>It is critical to understand the difference between the House Intelligence Committee, the Senate Intelligence Committee and the Gang of Eight. Only two members from the House Intelligence Committee (chair and minority), and two members of the Senate Intelligence Committee (chair and vice-chair) are participants. The other four are Speaker of the House, minority leader of House, Leader of Senate and Minority leader of Senate. The latter four are not part of any other intel committee.<\/p>\n<p id=\"tweet_6\" class=\"content-tweet allow-preview\">On March 20th 2017 congressional testimony, James Comey was asked why the FBI Director did not inform congressional oversight about the counterintelligence operation that began in July 2016.<\/p>\n<p>FBI Director Comey said he did not tell congressional oversight he was investigating presidential candidate Donald Trump because the Director of Counterintelligence suggested he not do so. *Very important detail.*<\/p>\n<p>I cannot emphasize this enough.\u00a0<strong>*VERY* important detail<\/strong>.

from the larger Russian conspiracy narrative, up to now the controversial media story has been around the origin of the 2016 FISA warrant(s).<\/p>\n<p>As previously stated by all reporting there was a June 2016 FISA application\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/heatst.com\/world\/exclusive-fbi-granted-fisa-warrant-covering-trump-camps-ties-to-russia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">that was

approved<\/a>.\u00a0 The current line of congressional inquiry surrounds the underlying content of the requested FISA warrant, and whether it was built upon fraud and manipulated content (the \u2018Steele Dossier\u2019) presented to the FISA Court (FISC).<\/p>\n<p>Recently the media have been working frantically, against an entire year of prior support for the Steele Dossier, to distance the origin of the FBI counterintelligence operation from the dossier.\u00a0\u00a0 The reason why reveals the bigger underlying story.<\/p>\n<p>When Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes\u00a0<a

a review of 2016 intelligence gathering, reporting and subsequent unmasking, the issue behind his concern was clouded in mystery. Indeed the larger headlines at the time were about demanding a special prosecutor and driving the Russia conspiracy narrative.<\/p>\n<p>In hindsight, and with information from our assembled timelines of 2016 though today, we can now revisit that concern expressed by Chairman Nunes with a great deal more perspective and information.

However, what we learned in 2017 about the activity in 2016 almost guarantees that was exactly what happened. That back-story also ties into both the FISA issue and the Devin Nunes concern.<\/p>\n<p>Admiral Mike Rogers became NSA director in April 2014.<\/p>\n<p>Sometime in early 2016 Admiral Rogers became aware of \u201congoing\u201d and \u201cintentional\u201d violations of Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), Section 702 surveillance. Specifically item #17 which includes the unauthorized upstream data collection of U.S. individuals within NSA surveillance.<\/p>\n<p>Section 702 \u2013 Item #17 \u201cAbout Queries\u201d is specifically the collection of emails, and phone call surveillance of U.S. persons.<\/p>\n<p>The public doesn\u2019t discover this issue, and NSA Director Rogers action,<a href=\"http:\/\/www.judicialwatch.org\/document-archive\/top-secret-fisa-court-order\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u00a0until May 2017<\/a>when we learn that Rogers told the FISA court he became aware of unlawful surveillance and collection of U.S. persons. Put into context, with the full back-story, it appears that 2016 surveillance was the political surveillance now in the headlines; the stuff Chairman Nunes is currently questioning.<\/p>\n<p>The dates here are important as they tell a story.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of Rogers suspecting [FISA 702 (#17 \u2013 email and phone calls)] surveillance activity was being used for reasons he deemed unlawful, in mid 2016 Rogers ordered the NSA compliance officer to run a full audit on 702 NSA compliance.<\/p>\n<p>Again, 702 is basically spying on Americans; the actual \u201cspying\u201d part is 702. Item 17 is \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nsa.gov\/news-features\/press-room\/statements\/2017-04-28-702-statement.shtml\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">About Queries<\/a>\u201c, which allows queries or searches of content of email and phone conversations based on any subject matter put into the search field.<\/p>\n<p>The NSA compliance officer identified several strange 702 \u201cAbout Queries\u201d that were being conducted.

Admiral Rogers was briefed by the compliance officer on\u00a0<strong>October 20th, 2016<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Admiral Mike Rogers ordered the \u201cAbout Query\u201d activity to stop, reported the activity to the DOJ, and then went to the FISA court.<\/p>\n<p>On\u00a0<strong>October 26th, 2016<\/strong>, full FISC assembly, NSA Director Rogers personally informed the court of the 702(17) violations.
