Relevant Information Inaccurately Stated, Omitted, or Undocumented in the First Application Our review found that FBI personnel fell far short of the requirement in FBI policy that they ensure that all factual statements in a FISA application are "scrupulously accurate." We identified multiple instances in which factual assertions relied upon in the first FISA application were inaccurate, incomplete, or unsupported by appropriate documentation, based upon information the FBI had in its possession at the time the application was filed. We found that the problems we identified were primarily caused by the Crossfire Hurricane team failing to share all relevant information with OI and, cons~quently, the information was not considered by the Department decision makers who ultimately decided to support the applications.

FBI agents are ALL implicated. If this is the way the rank-and-file behave and in lieu of any rank-and-file "whistleblowers", we must conclude they are all equally corrupt.

ALL bc no one has the courage, morals, and ethics to stand up to this blatant lieing. How can a small group of "upper echelon" officials subvert an entire organization of "patriots"?
