Mark Warner was in covert contact with an attorney for [[Christopher Steele]], who authored the information used in the warrant application, and [[Oleg Deripaska]] who was one of Steele's sources. The committee at the time supposedly was investigating Trump-Russia collusion while Warner was engaged in behind-the-scenes witness tampering with the key witness.

FBI Washington Field Office Special Agent Brian Dugan was given a task in early 2017 to see if he could track down and identify people who were leaking information related to [[national security]].  Dugan used a Top-Secret Classified Information request by SSCI Vice-Chairman Mark Warner to begin a very specific leak investigation.

Dugan obtained enough evidence surrounding Watkins participation to gain a search warrant for her email, electronic communication and phone records.  At the same time Dugan obtained the text messages between [[Chris Steele]]’s lawyer, [[Adam Waldman]], and Vice-Chairman Mark Warner.  The dates of both captures are very similar.

After more investigative paths were followed; and after more surveillance was conducted; eventually Wolfe was confronted.  He lied three times over two dates until eventually Dugan put the direct evidence in front of him, and on December 15, 2017, Wolfe admitted to the leak.  He was fired from the SSCI.

The transfer of the investigative file into Main Justice is how the  Mueller team  gained custody of the exact March 17, 2017, version of the FISA application which they released on July 21, 2018.  Additionally, only nine days earlier, July 12, 2018, the Mueller team lied to the FISA court the Carter Page FISA application was adequately predicated.

When the Brian Dugan investigative file was returned, the evidence of the Wolfe leak was scrubbed.  Wolfe was only charged with lying three times to investigators.  Absent the indictment for the leak Wolfe’s lawyers knew they had leverage; they threatened to [[subpoena]] the SSCI senators (it is likely only Warner was a participant in the March 17th FISA review – so the real target of that threat was Senator Mark Warner).
