WASHINGTON (AP) — The chief judge of a secretive surveillance court said Tuesday that the FBI provided “unsupported" information when it applied to eavesdrop on a former Trump campaign adviser and directed the bureau to report back by next month on what steps it was taking to fix the problems.


However, no change in the process will cure agencies which had liars and leakers like Comey, Ohr, McCabe, Abedin, Mills, Yates, et al. using the weapons of government against one candidate like Trump.

The FISA court judges who approved the warrants are trying to evade prison by saying they "knew nothing" and were mislead by the FBI. House Intelligence Committee ranking member Devin Nunes said he isn't buying it. He said the FISA court judges that approved the warrants (appointed by Obama)were told by the House Intelligence Committee that information in the warrant applications wasn't accurate but they proceeded to issue the warrants and ignored Nunes' concerns.

This brings into question all warrants issued by the FBI and WILL result in numerous conviction over turns in the coming years.

The application was dishonest in the sense that it only said in a footnote that the fake dossier was paid for by Hillary, the opponent of the person whose staff they were seeking to wiretap.

But -- and this is a big "but" -- when you are seeking a warrant to wiretap a presidential candidate's staff, it is more than slightly relevant that the basis was a totally fake dossier paid for by that person's opponent.

This reeks of utter dishonesty on the part of those applying and it says that, at bare minimum, the judges who signed were lazy or worse.
