To: a little elbow grease
Excellent summary. To this point

... this dossier was all dressed up by the FBI, taken to the FISA court and presented as a legitimate intelligence document ...
I'd just like to emphasize that this was after the FISA court had already turned down an application. The dossier was ginned up to buttress the resubmittal. Without the FBI's imprimatur on the fake dossier no FISA warrant would have been granted.

I hear you. Wray looked like he was ready to cry at one point there at the end.

What was the reject rate of PISA? Somewhere above 95%? How much ‘review’ goes into these things to begin?

Damn shame no cameras in the ‘court’ to capture the wink and nod as they signed off the polished turd.

The one that signed-off should also be under the microscope...
