THESE 5 FBI SCANDAL PLAYERS MAY NEVER GET OUT OF THE FISA WOODS: When former FBI Director James Comey and four Department of Justice/FBI colleagues signed off on FISA surveillance warrant applications based on the infamous Steele dossier, they may have violated a procedural rule for the secret judicial panel known as the Woods Rule. Here’s my H/T to former CBS News investigative reporter Sharyl Attkinsson, who appears to be the first journalist to point this out.

Texas Republican Rep. Louis Gohmert has an solution for clearing up all the major questions surrounding the FISA applications – release the transcripts of each application’s handling in the court. With those in hand, Gohmert told LifeZette, “we can determine, among other things, if there was a fraud perpetrated upon the court, whether the court failed to properly elicit sufficient information to justify the secret surveillance of an American citizen, and why the FISA court appears to have taken no action against any attorney if such attorney misled the court.”
