I'm not all wound up. I'm enjoying watching you guys twist like contortionists to keep up with the spin.

It was a low level employee, who made a change or two, supposedly, to make the application seem more justified. CNN reported that, by the way. One only does that, when one is worried that the actual supporting evidence, is insufficient to get the warrant you seek.

As you and WDMSO said, no big deal.

Don't need to spin when you're feasting on facts.

You really don't know why the edit was made, could have just as simply been they got wires crossed were covering their backside so there wasn't an inconsistency. The reporting seems to indicate the IG found no issues with the justification of the application.

No I don't know why it was made, I repeated what was reported on CNN.

As always, I'm content to wait for the facts, and I'll happily go wherever the facts take me. Because unlike you who went into self-imposed exile after the 2016 election, my ability to deal with reality doesn't depend on one side winning every single time. . And in this case, anyone who knows me, believes me when I say that I hope there was no meaningful dishonesty or fudging that happened here. Because even though it would help my side if it turns out that Obama's FBI forged documents to violate the constitutional rights of an American citizen for political gain, even though that would help my side, it's too awful for me to consider. So I hope there's nothing there.
