#1 WIKI - Collyer was one of four FISA Court judges who approved a FISA warrant (issued in October 2016 and renewed several times) authorizing the wiretapping of Carter Page.[8] In December 2019 Collyer issued an order saying the FBI "provided false information to the National Security Division (NSD) of the Department of Justice, and withheld material information from NSD which was detrimental to the FBI's case, in connection with four applications to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) for authority to conduct electronic surveillance of a U.S. citizen named Carter W. Page"[9] ordering the government to inform the court of planned procedures to "ensure that the statement of facts in each FBI application accurately and completely reflects information possessed by the FBI that is material to any issue presented by the application."

I'm calling the Dec 2019 order a CYA.

Emphasis added.

#2 Because letters from politicians get forwarded to the IG. Judges are supposed to stay out of the politics. The court is in a tough spot on this one. If a judge investigated every congressional letter, the dems would flood them.

#3 Admiral Rogers reported surveillance and FISA abuses as early as 2015. Much of this was reported in bits and pieces by Rantburg at the time. Clapper tried to fire Rogers for this exposure in an attempt to cover up. The following timeline in the article is revealing: Mike Rogers is an American hero.
The FISA courts must have been aware of these abuses as well. I am always astounded daily by the depths of corruption that existed in the previous administration. My naiveté.

#5 Collyer resigned. She will now likely go into hiding.
