RPI’s Daniel McAdams on Congressional memo alleging FBI abused spying powers

by | Feb 3, 2018

Now that the memo is out, what does it mean? RPI’s Daniel McAdams is on RT to point out that while the memo shows how the FISA system has been abused by the FBI and the rest of the government, the real issue is that the FISA process is always abused. And the same Members pointing to the abuse in this particular case were aware of the abuse even as they voted to re-authorize Section 702 of the FISA Amendments act. There’s plenty of hypocrisy to go around on this. And with the release of this memo, will the “Russiagate” fantasy finally be consigned to the dustbin of history where it belongs? Don’t count on it…
