To avoid exposure of illegal Flynn surveillance (no warrant, and no FISA), the FBI is now claiming "incidental collection"
-
On November 30, 2016, Samantha Power's first unmasking, this was the same day as the Department of Justice sending a letter to Flynn about his work with Flynn Intel Group and Inovo BV being scrutinised.
-
On December 2, 2016, Samantha Power's 2nd unmasking and James Clapper's 1st unmasking, this was either the same day - or the day after - a 20 minute Trump Tower meeting between Flynn, Kushner and Ambassador Kislyak, which Kislyak reported to his superiors - which was intercepted.
-
Everything that is for December 14, 15, 16, 2016 will probably be about Sheikh al-Nahyan and George Nader meeting with Flynn, Kushner and Steve Bannon at Trump Tower on December 15.
-
Note that the meeting between Sheikh al-Nahyan and the Trump transition team was discovered on a flight manifest by US border agents, and the information was passed to the Obama White House.
-
Samantha Power's December 23, 2016 unmasking request may have been about Brainwave Science.
-
This request from Ambassador Bass on December 28, 2016 would presumably have something to do with Inovo BV and Flynn Intel Group.
John Bass was Ambassador to Turkey between October 20, 2014 to October 15, 2017.
-
Clapper's December 28, 2016 unmasking request most likely had to do with the Russian sanctions though, as Obama signed the executive order for them and Flynn and Kislyak spoke the same day.
-
Denis McDonough's January 5, 2017 unmasking request was obviously the Oval Office meeting, where Flynn was a main topic of conversation, because Obama and team wanted to hold off handing over intelligence to the Trump transition team because Russia.
-
Clapper, Michael Dempsey and Stephanie O'Sullivan did an unmasking request on January 7, 2017.
-
There is a CIA / CTMC request on January 10, 2017.
This is the Counterterrorism Mission Center.
No idea what they are doing but this is the same day as the dossier reveal.
-
Samantha Power has her final unmasking request the day after the dossier is revealed and the day before the Ignatius article on January 11, 2017.
-
Biden and Jacob Lew on January 12, 2017 for some final unmasking requests happened on the day of the Ignatius article, as well as when Horowitz opened an investigation into DOJ conduct and Lynch signing the "CIA Activities: Executive Order 12333" document.
-
Jacob Lew was the Secretary of the Treasury, which was a part of Brennan's Working Group, and it should also be noted that on January 22, 2017, WSJ (Carol E. Lee, Devlin Barrett and Shane Harris) published "U.S. Eyes Michael Flynn's Links to Russia", which mentions Treasury.

What this looks like is that the FBI was indeed conducting surveillance of Flynn as part of their ongoing investigation; and they captured the conversation during that surveillance; but…. THEY DIDN'T HAVE A WARRANT!
John Gleesons lawfirm represents Sally Yates is a direct conflict of interest. His client literally helped launched the investigation into Flynn.
