DOJ Inspector General Horowitz Admits FBI Conducted 3.4 Million Warrantless “Backdoor Searches” of Americans’ Communications—AND Over a Million Were in Error (VIDEO)

On Thursday, DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz testified before the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Appropriations Subcommittee on Crime and Federal Government Surveillance concerning “How a Law Designed to Protect Americans Has Been Weaponized Against Them.”

Horowitz admitted to Rep. Matt Gaetz that the FBI has done 3.4 million warrantless “backdoor searches” of Americans’ communications.

Gaetz asked:

I want to get into the 3.4 million backdoor searches that the ranking member pointed out in his opening statement. Mr. Inspector General. How should the public think about those?

Horowitz said:

Well, I think what we’ve seen in the various public reports, and I’m limited in what I can say about what’s public, which I think is one of the issues, by the way, that’s worth talking about, is transparency here.

Horowitz continued:

It’s obviously very concerning that there’s that volume of searches and particularly concerning the error rate that was reported on in the last two years in the public reporting.

Horowitz revealed an error rate of 30% or over a million erroneous searches.

Gaetz said:

I’m a lawyer, not a mathematician, but 3.4 million about 30%, you’re talking about seven figures of error in terms of the searches.

When asked how many people can use FISA to perform

“backdoor searches” of Americans’ communications, no one seems to know.

Final thoughts: Upon President Trump’s return, disband the FBI, prosecute and persecute ruthlessly, scatter the FBI and the DOJ to the far corners of the earth, and cease the damn warrantless “backdoor searches” of Americans’ communications.
