Unlike the House and Senate Judiciary Committees and the House Intelligence Committee (Goodlatte, Grassley and Nunes) - the Senate Intelligence Committee (Burr-Warner) is known for its [[bipartisan]] [[corruption]] and has not been investigating Obama DOJ/FBI abuses or the Russia collusion hoax. Ranking Democrat [[Mark Warner]] remains in contact with Christopher Steele through [[Adam Waldman]], an agent of a Russian oligarch.<ref>https://truepundit.com/senator-mark-warner-entire-senate-intelligence-committee-compromised-corrupt-finally-exposed/</ref> A senior staffer of former Ranking Democrat Dianne Feinstein, [[Dan Jones]], has become FusionGPS's new employer.

In June 2018, [[James A. Wolfe]], a 30 year Senior staffer as Director of Security of the Senate Intelligence Committee, was arrested and charged with leaking to three reporters on multiple occasions between December 2015 and December 2017.<ref>Wolfe evidently was caught in a leak hunt, and the copy given to him in March 2017 included a specific, and intentionally wrong, internal date using October 19, 2017 as the origination date for FISA application approval. The actual date was October 21. The October 19 date then shows up in subsequent media reports which were based on the leak.  The New York Times and Washington Post used the wrong date; the concentric reporting of the NYT and WaPo spread the wrong date like a virus. The same countermeasure technique was used in the December 2017 leak from [[Adam Schiff]] to Manu Raju of [[CNN]] regarding an email Donald Trump, Jr. received about [[WikiLeaks]], when in fact the original document was dated 10 days later, ''after'' Wikileaks released DNC emails. Schiff and CNN took the bait, alleging a smoking gun for the collusion narrative, only to retract later in an embarrassing episode that exposed Schiff as a leaker and shoddy reporting by CNN for failing to a qualify sources properly.</ref>  Wolfe leaked the Carter Page FISA application and identity of Carter Page in March 2017 to reporter Ali Watkins.

Attorneys for Wolfe sent letters to all 15 senators on the Committee, notifying them that their testimony may be sought as part of Wolfe’s defense.<ref>https://www.wsj.com/articles/former-intelligence-committee-aides-lawyers-want-testimony-from-senators-1532692801?mod=e2tw</ref> Wolfe, who faces the lesser charge of lying to the FBI rather than the more serious charge of leaking classified national security information, may have told the FBI he was acting on instructions of Senators when he leaked the Carter Page FISA application in March 2017.
