Two others related to "charges of conspiracy to lie to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court" and the last to a "global leak referral."

I am probably missing some, but you get the point.

I truly hope the DOJ, Huber, Durham, and/or another US Attorney are doing something about these, we know some are being addressed though.
