Three Hops - why is this not more in the News? You are the news. I first learned about the 'three hop' rule that is applied in surveillance (at least since the Obama era) when hearing about spygate earlier on.  The three hop (two hop) rule allows surveillance to extend beyond the focus target (i.e. the individual being targeted), to anyone this person has contact with (the second tier) and anyone any of those people have contact with (third tier).  In all the discussion about the spying on Papadom, Carter Page, etc., I hear very little mention of the fact that FISAs on these people meant access to surveil EVERYONE in the campaign, from Candidate (then later President) Trump down. To me it seems that this is THE KEY point about the entire spygate affair.  Corney is on TV saying "President Trump was not the target of this surveillance, the campaign was not the target of this surveillance" which patriots knows is BS, but it really misses the point. The violation of Carter Page et al's civil rights, etc., may be the legal teeth behind the criminal charges at that level, but the fact is that these FISAs meant that parts of the FBI and the Dippy State could cast a net of surveillance over EVERYTHING and EVERYONE in the Trump Campaign and Transition and Administration team.  THAT's what speaks volumes to the direct dangerousness of the practice, (even if one were to (lol) assume there was not conspiracy at the top to  surveil and undermine the Trump team). I say that just trying to see things from the normie point of view. This little factoid is not getting enough air time, from what I can see.  Am I wrong? Is this fact understood or even raised out there when discussions of Spygate are being held, interviews, etc?  I really do not cover enough of what is going on, but in what I DO see, I'm not hearing this point clarified and made obvious enough.  If the American public knew this, it would mean a WHOLE lot more, I suspect, than Papadom and Page having their civil rights abused.  Wondering what GA goats think.....
