Part 16, American Oversight and Dominique Bravo in her personal capacity submit the following request for records. Earlier today, President Donald Trump declassified the information in a memo written by the Chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI), Devin Nunes, regarding alleged abuses in the use of Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrants.1 In so doing, the White House officially acknowledged the existence of at least four FISA applications that were approved by the FISA court: one application that was sought and approved on October 21, 2016, targeting Carter Page, and three subsequent FISA renewal applications and approvals from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC).2 In light of this official acknowledgement, we seek additional information about the FISA applications and warrants. 1 See Memorandum from HPSCI Majority Staff to HPSCI Majority Members, Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act Abuses at the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (Jan. 18, 2018), http://docs.house.gov/meetings/IG/IG00/20180129/106822/HMTG- 115-IG00-20180129-SD001.pdf.

INTRODUCTION Americans can always be counted on to do the right thing, once all other possibilities are exhausted.1 The United States Intelligence Community is one example of the truthfulness of this statement. From their inception, intelligence agencies have conducted investigations in ways that infringe on the rights of Americans.2 In 1976, Senator Frank Church of Idaho established a select committee in the United States Senate to investigate alleged improprieties in how the Intelligence Community gathered its information.3

    Legal Dilemmas Facing White House Counsel in the Trump Administration: the Costs of Public Disclosure of Fisa Requests

    LEGAL DILEMMAS FACING WHITE HOUSE COUNSEL IN THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION: THE COSTS OF PUBLIC DISCLOSURE OF FISA REQUESTS Peter Margulies* INTRODUCTION Not every presidential administration can forge a new brand of government lawyering. Historically, government lawyering has swung between two poles: (1) dialogic lawyering, which stresses reasoned elaboration, respect for institutions, and continuity with unwritten norms embodied in past practice; and (2) insular lawyering, which entails opaque definitions, disregard of other institutions, and departures from unwritten norms.1 Because President Trump regularly signals his disdain for institutions, such as the intelligence community, and unwritten norms, such as prosecutorial independence,2 senior lawyers in the White House have added a new mode of legal representation that entails ad hoc adjustments to President Trump’s mercurial decisions and triage among the presidential decisions they will try to temper. Call it: lifeboat lawyering. Lifeboat lawyering, as practiced by Donald F. McGahn II—the first White House Counsel of the Trump administration3—and others, involves * Professor of Law, Roger Williams University School of Law.

    IWF Defends E-Cigs Without Disclosing Funding from E-Cig Industry

    Pay-to-Play: IWF Defends e-Cigs without Disclosing Funding from e-Cig Industry independentwomensforum.org/news/pay-to-play-iwf-defends-juul-without-disclosing-juul-funding May 23, 2019 The Independent Women’s Forum has published more than a dozen posts advocating for deregulation of e-cigarettes and promoting the benefits of vaping since 2018. Those pieces downplay the adverse health effects of nicotine, an addictive substance derived from tobacco plants which has been linked to heart disease. But there is much more to this story. By Evan Vorpahl and Lisa Graves Some of IWF’s claims backing e-cigs and attacking their regulation have appeared in USA Today, the Hill, and The Washington Examiner. Its representatives have also made such claims in media appearances on local radio stations and on the National Rifle Association’s video arm, NRATV. But in all of these outlets IWF has failed to disclose that it has been funded by tobacco and vaping companies determined to re-normalize the use of tobacco. IWF/V does not disclose its corporate funders in articles. After its recent Koch funding was revealed by others, it put the 2018 gala program on its website, with no disclosure of its history of corporate and trade group funding. However, we have documentation of tobacco funding since at least 2017. When it first began accepting tobacco money is not known. Those documents show that Philip Morris International was an underwriter in 2017. PMI’s most famous products are cancer-causing Marlboro cigarettes. According to Reuters, Philip Morris “has spent more than $3 billion developing new smoking platforms like iQOS,” an electric cigarette that heats tobacco into a vapor rather than burning it.

First, on the same day Movants filed their motion, Republican Senators Chuck Grassley and Lindsey Graham, with the approval of the FBI, made public a less-redacted version of a criminal referral (''the Grassley-Graham Memo") related to the Page wiretapping applications. It contains additional facts about the applications that the executive branch has chosen to declassify. The Grassley-Graham Memo also contains certain characterizations about the Page application materials that are disputed by other members of Congress who have access to the applications. 1 The pending motion seeks all orders relating to surveillance of Carter Page together with the application materials and renewal application materials, with only such limited redactions as may be essential to preserve information that remains properly classified.
