MSNBC anchor Andrea Mitchell acknowledged Wednesday that the FBI made "pretty egregious" errors in the highly controversial Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) application process that played a major role in the Russia investigation.

During MSNBC's coverage of the hearing featuring Justice Department Inspector General Michael E. Horowitz following the release of his report, Mitchell pointed out how there was "something for everyone" within his findings and how Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., had "seized" on the 17 various errors and omissions made throughout the FISA process.

"There were very clear mistakes made by the FBI in the first approval and subsequently reapproval submissions for authorization by the FISA court, that special security judge who approves surveillance," the NBC News chief foreign affairs correspondent said.

Mitchell wasn't the only NBC personality who spoke bluntly about the uncovered FISA blunders. NBC News justice correspondent Pete Williams said Monday that the FBI "screwed up on every level" for heavily relying on the infamous Steele dossier for the FISA application.

"What it says is that the FBI basically, repeatedly screwed up at every level, failing to pay enough attention to potential problems with Steele, failing to tell the Justice Department," Williams explained, referring to British ex-spy Christopher Steele, who compiled the anti-Trump dossier.

What's going on?  Maybe tomorrow NPR's Inskeep and Martin will report the news in a more neutral perspective. . .

So for those who don't know, FISA was granted on false intel.  While they were getting their intel together for the judges, they realized it's wrong, but had to keep the story going.  That's why they got the wrong Michael Cohen.  The one they busted had never been in Prague based on his passport.  So they had to find something else to get him on.

"Steele is a credible witness because he was used before by the FBI" . WRONG, the FBI never used him prior.
