The Security Director of the Senate Intelligence Committee (SSCI), James Wolfe, leaked the FISA application on Carter Page to his journalist girlfriend Ali Watkins of [[BuzzFeed]].  Ms. Watkins then began reporting on elements within the application that applied to Carter Page.  This seeded Journalist Devlin Barrett was the recipient of leaks from Lisa Page in late October 2016 on instructions from Andrew McCabe to refute charges of corruption in the various Clinton investigations days before the election. The pattern in April is the same: the leaks tried to spin a narrative favorable to the FBI's objectives on the dictates Andrew McCabe. McCabe later was fired for lying under oath multiple times and faces criminal prosecution for the October 2016 leaks. This seeded the media for subsequent stories.

The April leak attempted to paint Carter Page, and by extension the Trump administration, as an agent of the Kremlin. The FISA warrant itself used the same technique - the FBI knew Carter Page was not a Russian. Carter Page was on the FBI payroll as a paid informant after he assisted the FBI in securing a conviction of a Russian agent in 2015. Nonetheless, the FBI used Carter Page's contact with that Russian agent to lie to the FISA court and claim Page was a Russian agent without informing the court that Page wore a wire to secure a conviction and was paid. The FBI further leaked the bogus no narrative to Michael Isikoff of Yahoo News, then hoaxed the court into believe the Yahoo News article was independent corroboration of their own investigation. Here too in April 2017 we see the same elaborate deceptive echo chamber to s eider audience abd a more focused nation, attempting to tarnish Trump's first 100 days in office.
