| | 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 of Andrew McCabe. McCabe later was fired for lying under oath multiple times and faces criminal prosecution related to the October 2016 leaks. | | 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.

| | *'''April'''. Deputy Asst. Attn. Gen. [[Mary McCord (DOJ)|Mary McCord]] resigns as head of the DOJ-National Security Division after the Trump administration restores independent Inspector General oversight of the division. Former Deputy Attn. Gen. Sally Yates barred the Inspector General from oversight of the DOJ-NSD activities beginning in June 2015. Shortly thereafter, the FBI was allowing its contractors (FusionGPS) unfettered access to raw FISA data (upstream and downstream electronic communications) of American citizens under the guise of foreign intelligence surveillance to gather paid opposition research on Hillary Clinton opponents. The DOJ-NSD ultimately is responsible for applying the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. The Obama Justice Drpartment had violated the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, and the Fourth Amendment rights of American citizens to be free of unreasonable searches (collection of FISA evidence) for at least five years by targeting the Obama administration's domestic political opponents as agents of foreign powers. When the FISA court issued a ruling in late September 2016 condemning the Obama administration and Dept. of Justice for its lawlessness, the DOJ-NSD head John Carlin was replaced the next day with McCord. Neither Yates, Carlin or McCord ever informed FISA judges that the Obama administration presented falsified evidence to the court, and was using Hillary Clinton's paid opposition research under the color of law to harass, intimidate, and violate the civil rights of Americans and domestic political opponents of Obama and Clinton, followed up by illegal press leaks from government sources designed to influence public opinion and the 2016 election. | | *'''April'''.
