We need a dig on BOENTE he is flying under the radar and I for one paid little attention to his role in this FISA/FISC mess but second source article is fascinating X's 17..Real Stealth bomber??
Who is BOENTE that he signs faulty FISA apps and with ROD ROSENSTEIN remains?
The FISA statute, 50 U.S.C. §1805 (d)(1) requires a FISA order on an American citizen be renewed by FISC every 90 days. Each renewal requires a separate finding of probable cause. Then-FBI-Director James Comey, the now-disgraced former director, signed three FISA applications on behalf of the FBI, and former Deputy Director Andrew McCabe signed one. Signing on behalf of the DOJ were the Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates, then-Acting Deputy Attorney General Dana Boente, and current Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein who each signed one or more FISA applications on behalf of the Department of Justice. Parenthetically, readers should note that Mr. Boente currently serves as General Counsel for the FBI currently led by FBI Director Christopher Wray.
TRUMP FIRES 46 Obama-era US Attorneys & Refuses resignations of Rosenstein, Huber, and Boenta
On March 10, Trump abruptly fired 46 Obama-era U.S. attorneys. The firings appear to have been unexpected and included the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, Preet Bharara, who previously had been told he would be staying. Generally speaking, it’s customary for a new administration to purge the prior U.S. attorneys and replace them with their own candidates.
There has been some confusion around this event. There are actually a total of 93 U.S. attorneys, but 16 had already left their posts following the election. The remaining 31 attorneys not fired by Trump were either acting U.S. attorneys or had been specially appointed. These positions were already technically vacant and would be automatically filled once Trump had his new nominees confirmed by the Senate.
In the days following the firings, Trump declined the resignations of just three U.S. attorneys: Rosenstein, who was the U.S. attorney in Maryland; John Huber, the U.S. attorney in Utah; and Boente, from the EDVA. Two others, Deirdre Daly of Connecticut and Richard Hartunian of the Northern District of New York, were also allowed to stay on for several more months so that they could complete 20 years of service with the DOJ.
