It's also unclear how Nunes even got the FISA request to begin with and there's suspicion now there was coordination with the White House in its creation.

"FISA request has to be thoroughly justified for a Judge to sign it"
First, can you tell us how you know what the standards are for FISA requests to be granted? I thought they were secret.
Second, it's possible that a knowingly false request could be presented to a judge, in order to meet the burden. No one is saying the judge didn't grant it, perhaps he granted it based on knowingly false information.
I'm not following this that closely. Sean Hannity is saying that Hilary's campaign paid for a dossier of lies to be put together which was presented to a FISA judge, for the purposes of spying on Trump. I wouldn't bet a nickel that's true. But I am curious. But it's impossible to know what's true.
