Washington, December 19 (RHC)-- In the U.S., the highly secretive Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, known as the FISA Court, has accused the FBI of misleading its judges about the reasons for wiretapping former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page as part of the Mueller investigation.

The FISA Court’s presiding judge ordered the FBI to propose changes in how its investigators seek permission for domestic surveillance of U.S. citizens.  The move comes after the Justice Department’s independent inspector general found a series of inaccuracies and omissions in the surveillance application process.
