of our government designed to be a political, to so debase the morale of the men and women in the c.i.a. and n.s.a., many of whom risk their lives for our safety, it's a disgrace. the reports that our intelligence community found putin continues to engage in activities to influence the outcome of our election. that is what mg wire's team -- mg wire's team was informing our president about. i am sending a letter to secretary pompeo, secretary mnuchin urging them to impose new sanctions on putin and his cronies using existing sanctions authority. they have it. they can do it. let me repeat that. the trump administration has broad authority to impose sanctions for meddling in our elections. it does not need new legislative tools or approval. our message is clear. secretary mnuchin, impose sanctions now. no one on the intelligence committee, democrat or republican, has disputed that russia is intending to interfere in our elections. most say that russia has already started to do so. so this should be an easy bipartisan effort. we're being attacked today in real time by a foreign adversaries

government or the c.i.a. to saying he did not. so clearly 180 degrees opposite of what the truth was. knowing it was false. submitted to the court. but that had been clear for months, if not years. and the courts did nothing. it's what keeps compelling me to think, maybe we just need to get rid of the fisa court system and come up with a new way. because i'm not sure what the court, with the judges that have been appointed to be fisa judges, that we can save the system. that americans can feel comfortable that their privacy, their civil rights will not or are not being violated by an overzealous group. especially when you look at the thousands and thousands of fisa orders. think there was -- in 2018, seemed like there was only one out of mass applications for warrants from the fisa court, i think there was only one they turned down. and some said, well, maybe if we have an amicus, a friend of the court who will stand up for the party against whom a warrant is sought, maybe that would help provide enough protection for american civ
