Carter Page was the convenient target of a FISA application the Obama-era DOJ and FBI needed to cover for their illegal surveillance. In essence, late summer 2016 the DOJ/FBI needed to get a search warrant to cover for the illegal political surveillance they had been undertaking for the past 10+ months on the Trump campaign.
The DOJ/FBI had an intelligence source named Carter Page, essentially an informant who worked for the CIA and whom the FBI previously used to indict Russians in the Buryakov case. Page was tangentially affiliated with the Trump campaign, so he became the conduit -a target- to get a search warrant that would provide the cover for all prior surveillance.
Carter Page became the useful target, and the Steele dossier, again provided by -essentially- another confidential informant (Chris Steele), provided the evidence to support the warrant. Thus, the dossier was important to support the search warrant application (the FISA app). The FISA application is the Title-1 search warrant application, and the dossier was essentially the underlying ‘woods file’, to justify the warrant.
Everything associated with the search warrant was nonsense, including the informants (Chris Steele, Igor Danchenko, Charles Dolan) who provided the DOJ with evidence (fabricated information) to take to the judge. That’s why it is all falling apart in closer examination. Everyone in the DOJ and FBI knew the evidence justifying the search warrant was nonsense, but they needed the warrant to cover for their prior unlawful conduct.
However, the target of that warrant, the former useful CIA, FBI and DOJ informant who was valuable to the DOJ in prior legal cases, is angry. Carter Page is righteously angry at the FBI and DOJ for lying to a judge (FISA Court) to get a search warrant against him and everyone he talked to and communicated with. So Carter Page has been filing civil lawsuits against the participants hoping to hold them accountable.
Today the civil lawsuit Carter Page -vs- James Comey, former FBI Director at the time when Page was targeted, was assigned to a new judge….. and who do you think the judge “randomly selected” was?
Yup…. James Boasberg, current presiding judge over the FISA Court.
(Source)
“Randomly reassigned” my ass.
Judge James Boasberg is up to his neck in this.
OK, bear with me and remember, this “random assignment” is a civil case against James Comey.
Not only was Judge James Boasberg the judge that signed off on the third extension of the search warrant that contained the fraudulent Steele dossier as its primary evidence to support it….. James Boasberg was also the “randomly selected” presiding judge in the criminal case against Kevin Clinesmith, the FBI lawyer who doctored emails to deny that Carter Page was a CIA asset in order to justify the warrant.
Judge James Boasberg was also the presiding judge in the media lawsuit seeking the James Comey memos the FBI and DOJ refused to release. It was Judge Boasberg who ruled the DOJ could keep the Comey memos hidden from the public (link) to protect the integrity of the Robert Mueller special counsel investigation. Robert Mueller was also put in place to cover up the illegal political surveillance (ie. “Spygate”) that was also the primary purpose of the fraudulent search warrant.
But wait, it gets worse… Robert Mueller filed the final renewal of the fraudulent warrant (June 29, 2017), and it was Judge James Boasberg signed it.
Let’s be really clear here. The FISA court is a small unit. The judges in/around Washington DC are also a small unit. They know everything that is going on in and around their DC network. A FISA judge inside that DC system knows every granular detail of everything that comes into their purview. All of it. Judge Boasberg even wrote the last two FISA court opinions (2019 and 2020) about the FBI abuses of the FISA-702 process and warrantless, illegal violations of the NSA database.
Now we are to believe it is just another random coincidence that James Boasberg is selected to be the judge in the civil case between Carter Page and James Comey?
To quote the White House occupant, “C’mon man”…
When the Carter Page FISA application was originally assembled by the FBI and DOJ, there was initial hesitancy from within the DOJ National Security Division (DOJ-NSD) about submitting the application, because it did not have enough citations in evidence (the infamous ‘Woods File’). That’s why the Steele Dossier ultimately became important. It was the Steele Dossier that provided the push, the legal cover needed for the DOJ-NSD to submit the application for a Title-1 surveillance warrant against the campaign of Donald J. Trump.
When the application was finally assembled for submission to the FISA court, the head of the DOJ-NSD was John Carlin. Carlin quit working for the DOJ-NSD in late September 2016 just before the final application was submitted (October 21,2016). John Carlin was replaced by Deputy Asst. Attorney General, Mary McCord.
♦ When the FISA application was finally submitted (approved by Sally Yates and James Comey), it was Mary McCord who did the actual process of filing the application and gaining the Title-1 surveillance warrant.
A few months later, February 2017, with Donald Trump now in office as President, it was Mary McCord who went with Deputy AG Sally Yates to the White House to confront White House legal counsel Don McGahn over the Michael Flynn interview with FBI agents. The surveillance of Flynn’s calls was presumably done under the auspices and legal authority of the FISA application Mary McCord previously was in charge of submitting.
♦ At the time the Carter Page application was filed (October 21, 2016), Mary McCord’s chief legal counsel inside the office was a DOJ-NSD lawyer named Michael Atkinson. In his role as the legal counsel for the DOJ-NSD, it was Atkinson’s job to review and audit all FISA applications submitted from inside the DOJ. Essentially, Atkinson was the DOJ internal compliance officer in charge of making sure all FISA applications were correctly assembled and documented.
♦ When the anonymous CIA whistleblower complaint was filed against President Trump for the issues of the Ukraine call with President Zelensky, the Intelligence Community Inspector General had to change the rules for the complaint to allow an anonymous submission. Prior to this change, all intelligence whistleblowers had to put their name on the complaint. It was this 2019 IGIC who changed the rules. Who was the Intelligence Community Inspector General? Michael Atkinson.
When ICIG Michael Atkinson turned over the newly authorized anonymous whistleblower complaint to the joint House Intelligence and Judiciary Committee (Schiff and Nadler chairs), who did Michael Atkinson give the complaint to? Mary McCord.
Yes, after she left main justice, Mary McCord took the job of working for Chairman Jerry Nadler and Chairman Adam Schiff as the chief legal advisor inside the investigation that led to the construction of articles of impeachment. As a consequence, Mary McCord received the newly permitted anonymous whistleblower complaint from her old office colleague Michael Atkinson.
♦ During his investigation of the Carter Page application, Inspector General Michael Horowitz discovered an intentional lie inside the Carter Page FISA application (directly related to the ‘Woods File’) which his team eventually tracked to FBI counterintelligence division lawyer, Kevin Clinesmith. Eventually Clinesmith was criminally charged with fabricating evidence (changed wording on an email) in order to intentionally falsify the underlying evidence in the FISA submission.
When John Durham took the Clinesmith indictment to court, the judge in the case was James Boasberg.
♦ In addition to being a DC criminal judge, James Boasberg is also a FISA court judge who signed off on one of the renewals for the FISA application that was submitted using fraudulent evidence fabricated by Kevin Clinesmith. In essence, now the presiding judge over the FISA court, Boasberg was the FISC judge who was tricked by Clinesmith and now the criminal court judge in charge of determining Clinesmith’s legal outcome. Judge Boasberg eventually sentenced Clinesmith to 6 months probation.
As an outcome of continued FISA application fraud and wrongdoing by the FBI in their exploitation of searches of the NSA database, Presiding FISC Judge James Boasberg appointed an amici curiae advisor to the court who would monitor the DOJ-NSD submissions and ongoing FBI activities.
Who did James Boasberg select as a FISA court amicus? Mary McCord.
♦ SUMMARY: Mary McCord submitted the original false FISA application to the court using the demonstrably false Dossier. Mary McCord participated in the framing of Michael Flynn. Mary McCord worked with ICIG Michael Atkinson to create a fraudulent whistleblower complaint against President Trump; and Mary McCord used that manipulated complaint to assemble articles of impeachment on behalf of the joint House Intel and Judiciary Committee. Mary McCord then took up a defensive position inside the FISA court to protect the DOJ and FBI from sunlight upon all the aforementioned corrupt activity.
You can clearly see how Mary McCord would be a person of interest if anyone was going to start digging into corruption internally within the FBI, DOJ or DOJ-NSD, and you can see how Judge James Boasberg personally selected Mary McCord to be the advisor to the court.
Now the latest….
So can Carter Page’s attorney’s call Judge Boasberg to testify under oath since he is actually involved?
And what’s the legal mechanism for Page’s attorney to challenge Boasberg’s appointment due to conflict of interest?
The head of the complaint department at the DC court and corrections department is Ms. Helen Hunt. The proper procedure to reach a just solution is to go to Helen Hunt for it.
Hopefully (always have hope) there are other avenues… if she is “DC”, she is likely part of the problem.
I see what you did there! ICU812
ABSOLUTELY ! I was just about to post the same thing !
We should All print this article and mail copies to Chief Justice Roberts and our Congressman & Senators and ask them what they are going to do about this !
Probably would be good to send to Nunes, McCarthy and McTurtle too !
And Tucker Carlson.
If they All received 1000’s of letters, they’d have to do Something !
Incest is now an accepted sexual preference.
Recuse, recuse, recuse.,,,IF our Court system had any shred of integrity left, which it doesn’t, CP’s lawyers SHOULD be able to request Boasburg recuse himself, and he would comply.
Thats the way its SUPPOSED to work. The way it REALLY works,..(eyeroll) CP’s attorneys may A) be working for the other side B) have a mole, feeding info to the other side or certainly C) be having ALL their communications monitored, and searches of the NSA database on all their employees.
I have no evidence of ANY of this, just sayin thats the way it is, today.
Police State, Survellence State, call it what you will,…WE ain’t “free”, not even close.
They own the washing machine, laundry detergent and the dryer. When they are done washing their clothes, everything will come out spick and span.
Nothing to add to the brilliant ideas here. Point of interest: can one still utter the words ” stick and span”? Of to HR Bert
Carter page is working for the other side. This is pro wrestling
Add Boasberg as a defendant if he won’t recuse.
Bingo, loopholes are fun. Use them to our advantage too. Well, not really a loophole per see but rather using their own rules against them.
There are NO coincidences.
Only synchronicity.
The same crazy eyes as Schiffty, and hundreds of wack-jobs on libs of tick-toc…
Thankfully the ‘libs of Tick-toc’ aren’t in positions of power, yet…
They are doing things blatantly and in our faces now. The corruption is so bad, who is going to stop them when they have all the levels of power?
They are giving the finger to the whole country.
They’re giving the double barrel middle finger to everyone outside of their perverse circle. Every one of these eunuch judges look like a male appendage with ears.
Yes, they are d!ckheads. In every sense of the word.
What level of power don’t they have? Judiciary, check, legislative, check, executive, check, press, check, military – committed their own side coup in support of the IC coup, check.
About the only things they are missing right now are a couple of state governments and total domination of the people.
Ridiculous. All of it. 0% impartial since…y’know, he’s complicit in the scam.
Is there any way to drain this swamp?
The Founding Fathers gave some advice in the Declaration of Independence.
Not only is it a Right, it is our Duty…..I’m ready….anyone else?
I would say bringing the case in DC, he has no chance , regardless of particular judge involved .
Wittingly or not, an ex-CIA/FBI plant, does not innocently arrive at the edges of the Trump Campaign.
Carter Page is the perfect choice. He looks a bit daft, and has the whiff of bewildered innocence.
I always thought he was a weirdo.
Read his book, you’ll change your mind, unless you’re a brainwashed lib
Exactly.
Agreed however I do not believe he (page) had any idea the jackasses in the FBI would get a secret warrant on him… which I would be willing to bet they have done in past situations regarding his work with them.
Lets put it this way, there is NO WAY the FBI FISA warrant tactic used on Carter Page was a first time or One off occurrence, they have been doing this OFTEN!
Is there such a thing as *ex* CIA/FBI?
I tend to think that like the mafia, there are few, if any ‘ex’ agents/members/assets.
Just another confirmation that not only are elections predetermined by shadowy someones, judges, whether appointed or elected, are installed by the same shadowy someones. Find out who Obama’s true handlers are, and you will find out who those shadowy someones who are hell bent on destroying free societies of the world. It’s all 100% rigged.
I too believe there is no such thing as a coincidence. DC is rotten to the core.
This is why a group of red states needs to secede: our current federal government is hopelessly corrupt to the core.
Interestingly, the red states are all contiguous. The blue states are not.
The red states have access to the Atlantic Ocean, but not the Pacific.
The blue states have access to both.
The friendly divorce of the Czech Republic and Slovakia would be a nice model to follow. But that’s not going to happen.
Well most goods being delivered to the west coast are coming from China, so we can probably survive just fine
Secede by county. That’s how West Virginia was formed. Then a path to the Pacific can be made.
YES.
The Republic is lost. The corruption is too pervasive and extensive. There is no realistic hope that it will all be cleaned up. States need to break away and save themselves from the destruction that the USA is doomed for.
The Texas Nationalist Movement is working towards that objective in Texas.

I listened to a couple of Toresays shows several years ago. She used to be in the intelligence community as a data/computer type person. If I remember correctly she worked with Brennan. In one show, I remember her saying, how things could be manipulated behind the scenes for juries and judges–who would be in the pool/selected, to get outcomes. Sadly, not surprised at all.
NOTHING is going to happen to the coup plotters. Cassius Clay ( thats right) invented the Rope- A-Dope and thats all those judges in D.C. do. Do Not Look For Justice from these Children of Lucifer.( see picture)
When one seeks Justice and cannot find it in the Justice system, then one must achieve Justice by other means.
While reading this, I couldn’t help but think back to the days when we only had 5-6 tv channels [3 networks and 2-3 ind/local] and this being reported by them. My how times have changed, we have access to more information now and so many know so much less.
Yes and they played the National Anthem at the end of the broadcasting day…
What body runs this judge lottery? Dominion?
Who “assigned” the case to Boasberg?
The CIA did.
Clearly the three letter agencies intervened in the ‘random’ lottery. I can almost guarantee the selection was made by an early 2000s computer system which had government malware installed. Look at the WikiLeaks Vault 7 dump and all the CIA hacking software that contained.
I’ve pointed out many times over the years of what is the Cancer and what has destroyed our Republic…..and that is….
Corrupt, Un-elected Bureaucrat Lawyers(FBI/DOJ/CIA etc), Corrupt Politician Lawyers(almost half of congress are Lawyers) and a Corrupt, Complicit Judiciary( including FISA) that allows all of it…..
And who on the “Calendar Committee” funneled it to Boasberg?
I believe the “Calendar Committee” are somehow associated with the “Lollipop League”…..
Which influences the “Poop my Pants” division of the White House.
IJS, Do you know who is on this “Calendar Committee” and would we recognize some names?
Our nation continues to reach embarrassing new levels of corruption daily.
What makes it worse we hold ourselves up as the shining example for the world when we are the standard for corruption.
The “shining city on the hill” has become Sodom and Gomorrah
More like a new layer of onion-skin gets peeled back.
like that game, “Angry Birds” – a Leaky App
It is so obvious that our courts & bureaucrats are crooks. Hopefully Carter Page keeps on fighting back.
Wickedness. Madness.
All of this will come out in the fullness of time when nobody really cares any longer. The bad guys will have been long retired and enjoying lavish pensions. There won’t be justice. That’s really what corruption means.
This kind of stuff happens in Mexico and S. America since forever. Long-standing cultures and governments are built on corrupt foundations. It’s a way of life and I think we here now are starting to acclimate to it.
I doubt anyone reading this site finds Boasberg’s appointment surprising. By tomorrow we’ll have 3 new outrages to complain about.
At the 2010 Tea Party DC Rally a man was carrying a hand-scrawled sign: Another Day, Another Outrage.
Yes, tomorrow a photo of Boasberg will emerge with two small boys(not his sons)in swimsuits sitting on his lap on Epstein’s jet. The main stream media would say Judge Boasberg works so hard he was on vacation. The Pope would say Judge Boasberg is such a fair Judge, such an honest Judge, a good boy.
And that would be that.
I actually believe it’s been happening here forever, technology has just shone a LED on it.
The left regret opening up the WWW to the world, and are now trying to close the barn doors…
The same faces recycled, which tells me there is a shallow bench of people they can force into these roles.
And they keep getting away with it?
Because no Patriot with training on HOW to do it has put a dead horse head in the bed with them yet.
This is likely more the case.
Normally, one doesn’t get 6 months probation for lying to a court, especially when one is acting in the capacity of an Officer of the Court, as the government was in this case! Normally, one would get the proverbial book thrown at them!
Can the Judge be called as a witness? I think I saw a Marx Bros. movies that has this plot line…
Carter Page should inform the court they intend to call him as a witness since he signed the warrant. That would throw some sand in the gears.
Would it be inaccurate to say they plan on hanging together?
I accept those terms.
It’s not hard for me to believe that the CIA put Judge James Boasberg in his position or else have black mail materials on him.
There’s no doubt in my mind the CIA has sleeper cells of judges, politicians, newspaper editors, and everything else where people hold levers of power.
Of course. All these high level government officials have treasure troves of blackmail material on them. Why do you think all of them were on the flight manifests for Epstein’s Lolita express to pedo island? For every Epstein that gets discovered, dozens more are still operating under the auspices of the FBI and CIA. Every major government worldwide has blackmail rings involving child trafficking. That is intelligence 101.
And THAT’S why Epstein didn’t kill himself.
The whole CIA are a sleeper cell for TPTB, as are every other government agency, and in many other countries throughout the world
BoASSberg is a witness to criminality !
More like a perpetraitor (sic)
What is this “Calendar Committee” that reassigned the case?
Whatever it is…
Their days are numbered 🙂
I see what you did there. But, then, you are the Wordman.
The weird spook should get his mouthpiece to bounce those who have “conflict of interest.”
If he doesn’t the weird spook isn’t serious at all. Let’s just start to call him “Kabuki Spook” right now.
‘They’ are much better at this game then ‘we’ are.
Their tools are deception and oppression. Ours should be prayer and steadfast faithfulness and righteous action. Are we failing at using our tools?
No, we aren’t “failing” in using our tools. We can’t decide on what “righteous action” means. I tend to mean when they cross the line to persecuting free men, free men cross the line to delivering freedom seeds by means of freedom sticks in the persecutor’s direction until the persecution stops.
Others here think we just wait in our closets and pray and fast until we are hauled off to our show trial, execution, or gulag and never raise a hand to our oppressors.
YMMV
No King but Jesus!
So was H*tler.
Yes, professional criminals operating as judges or lawyers normally would be.
There is a remedy and it’s not in the courts it’s in the constitution we know the place we know the people we just need to pick the DAY there are millions of patriots ready to clean our house . prayers for all who found a home in our TREE. And as always
THANK YOU SUNDANCE
R.D.
Dirty dirty dirty Judge!
Those sleazy weasels.
When you stay neutral in the midst of oppression, you are only siding with the oppressor.
Apparently we are not oppress enough to take a side.
This country has fallen into a deep dark hole, black as pitch, with no apparent bottom. In the end, it seems that it simply doesn’t matter who is president. Unless it is someone who climbed out of that hole, covered in the slimy, odiferous detritus that covers each one for whom that pit is their principle residence. In which case that person will work hand and glove with the corrupted intelligence agencies and an equally corrupted judiciary to dismantle the United States as we were originally constructed.
What a sorry state we have sunk to.
Who is on the Calendar Committee?
It does feel as if there’s little to no hope for the “Justice system”…
Sundance, To be fair, which of these other defilers of the Constitution, would be much better ?

Every America First candidate should also pledge to impeach these judges when elected to congress.
Since they seem to favor nixing Pan, I’d say maybe give her a shot. I’m sure she didn’t get sidelined because of her unflinching support of this cabal.
Another name for the gallows list.
They must ALL hang.
Indeed, have I mentioned my fondness for solutions that end in “… and let God sort them out!”?
To which God replies, “why do these people continuously FUBAR everything, then throw it in MY lap???”
“I swear to me, free will was totally wasted on these meatbags.”
A Curiously Random Coincidence Keeps Repeating
sundance headlines this devastating article with a brilliantly evocative and succinct epigram.
I was at Restoration Weekend and sundance was known. This is most informative as it is infuriating.
The “judge” is SKULL & BONES — none of those should even be allowed to be a Judge:
http://kyoto-inside-out.blogspot.com/2017/06/skull-bones-and-central-intelligence.html
No member of any secret society should ever be allowed to hold office from dog catcher on up. I mean from social fraternity to the “run the place” societies like Scroll and Key (Alabama), Burning Spear (FSU), or Skull and Bones. It doesn’t matter. If you went to college, you know your college’s “run the place’ secret society filled with the “Biffs” and “Buffies” from the lavish elite. They go on to run major corporations, lead state government, insinuate themselves into the state and federal judiciary, and they are not worth spit. Legacy hires that can’t wipe their noses. But they know to perpetuate this Boasberg DS crap. Well trained monkeys on a stick generation after generation.
Why file in DC? Could Page not file where he lived and was spied on? Winning in a corrupt DC seems remote. Look what they did to General Flynn.
Randomly assigned to the single judge authorized to hear FISA related cases?
Where did Carter Page initially file his suit? And what was the reason for the change of venue?
The judge who is involved with the two lovers had to recuse himself before because of his waist deep involvement is now at the control ?
This whole coup should have been moved outside of the DC (District of Criminals) court system and been brought into the real world.
They are not in control, they are panicking. They have been exposed and have no place to hide, they are desperate.
It doesn’t matter how bad it looks, they are out of plays.
Needs to petition the courts for a different Judge, Boasberg is a potential witness.
This whole deal stinks!
Just like the load in Brandon’s drip pan.
FUBAR squared.
According to FISA website, Boasberg rotated off FISA Court in May 2021.
The phrase “even the appearance of a conflict of interest” is no longer a part of the judicial lexicon. These people are no moral compass.
replaced by…”despite the appearance…”
It would be nice to talk to the judge and ask if he had a hand in pulling this case. But I don’t think we’ll reach him — he’s busy typing up the summary judgment against Page.
Now we know why the FISA court was not upset that it was lied to – they knew of the lies.
