Notes on the Trey Gowdy questioning:

>20 people within NSA part of unmasking process

>Comey: FBI has more

>Comey: FBI does SIGINT only in USA

>knowing the "universe of people" who can unmask a US citizen can lead to revealing who did the unmasking and spread the information from it

>Comey: "the number is important, but the culture behind it is more important"

>Comey: "we are obsessive about FISA"

>there are warnings on FISA documents reminding that it is FISA related

>Gowdy: "but if there are 100 people who have the ability to unmask and the knowledge of a previously masked name, then that's 100 different potential sources of investigation and the smaller the number is, the easier your investigation is"

>the CIA can unmask FISA

>the DOJ can unmask FISA

>the White House can unmask FISA by a request

>it's a felony punishable by up to 10 years to illegally unmask and spread the information

>I'm not gonna talk about any particular investigation = CROSSFIRE HURRICANE

>Gowdy: Where would you begin that investigation?

>THIS IS WHAT DURHAM IS DOING: You would start by figuring out, so who are the suspects? Who touched the information that you've concluded ended up unlawfully in the newspaper and start with that universe and then use investigative tools and techniques to see if you can eliminate people, or include people as more serious suspects.

>Clapper, Brennan, Rice, Ben Rhodes, Lynch, Yates ALL could've unmasked
