Showing Original Post only (View all)Mensch: At least SIX separate FISA warrants have been issued on the DT/Russia investigation. [View all]
As we know, Comey confirmed in the hearing that he was "coordinating" with 2 prosecutors, including one in the Eastern District of Virginia.
Mensch was able to find cases in the Eastern District and NY that COULD be the cases Claude Taylor has been referring to, but the "movant" is only listed in the ED case as the US govt and the NY case RICO case doesn't list a movant. Neither case lists the name of the defendant(s). So that part isn't certain but it does look promising.

Exclusive: Sources close to the intelligence community report that at least six separate FISA warrants were granted in the case of Donald Trump and his teams collusion with Russia. A separate source confirms that the FISA warrant I reported on November 7th at Heat Street, granted against two Russian banks, was in fact two separate FISA warrants, granted on the same day. These two warrants form part of the six total granted warrants sources report, although, these sources say, there may be further warrants both granted and renewed.
On Jan 11th Paul Wood of the BBC reported exclusively that the exact date of the FISA warrant against these banks now clarified by sources to have been two separate warrants, one for each bank, Alfa Bank and Silicon Valley Bank was October 15th. My story designated the date merely as October.
As the Trump-Russia prosecutions come closer, further details are emerging from varied sources.
Today (Sat, May 6th) on the AM Joy show on MSNBC, Joy Ann Reid became the first national broadcaster to refer to Grand Juries possibly summoned in the case of Donald Trumps team and its collusion with the Russian government.
She referenced the tweet of Claude Taylor, whose sources had told him exclusively that Federal Grand Juries had almost completed their work. Taylors sources had told him that state and federal Grand Juries were convening in the case of the Trump teams collusion with Russia.
I can add to the story that sources have pointed me at PACER records in both the Eastern District of Virginia and the Southern District of New York, which I have verified independently. In his testimony to the Judiciary Committee this past week, Mr. Comey specified that the FBI was working with two main sets of prosecutors one being the Eastern District of Virginia, popularly known as the rocket docket.
