Comey Attributes FISA Abuses to ‘Sloppiness,’ Distances Himself from Russia Probe Jack Crowe
James Comey maintained that the FISA process abuses detailed in Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s Monday report were the result of “sloppiness” in a Sunday morning interview with Fox News’ Chris Wallace, and claimed that, although he signed off on the initial FISA application and subsequent renewals, he was not made aware of the details of the probe as director.
Comey began the interview by knocking down the more extreme claims made by Trump and his partisans in advance of the report, namely that the former FBI director and his staff targeted the Trump campaign for political reasons and committed criminal acts in doing so. Citing Horowitz’s report, which found that the investigation was properly predicated, Comey said that Trump’s claims of treason and other criminal activity were “nonsense.”

Comey Says He Wouldn’t Resign Over FISA Mistakes if He Was Still FBI Director By Nicholas Ballasy
Former FBI Director James Comey said on Sunday that he wouldn’t resign over the findings in the Department of Justice Inspector General report on the origins of the Russia probe if he was still in charge of the FBI.
“As director you are responsible from this. I was responsible for this and if I were still there I would be doing what Chris Wray is doing, finding out how did this happen and is it systemic because that’s the scariest part,” Comey said on Fox News.

James Comey Admits: ‘I Was Wrong’ About FBI’s Use of FISA Process By Matt Margolis
ormer FBI Director James Comey finally admitted on “Fox News Sunday” that the Inspector General report on FISA abuse wasn’t as vindicating as he’d previously suggested. He still defended the FBI’s handling of the investigation but said he’d been “overconfident” when he defended the FBI’s use of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.
When the report came out last week, Comey posted the following tweet claiming vindication.
