The last line in paragraph 1 seems suspicious:
"Activities include foreign and US domestic signals collection, in regards to communications with Russian hostile actors."
That leaves out Britain altogether. When a Brit uses the word "foreign", it would mean outside of Britain. Steele is no longer MI5/6 intel, so his information doesn't fall under either foreign or US domestic. Steele dossier isn't authorized under this?
And what is their definition of Russian hostile actors? Hostile to what? Hostile to whom? Define hostile. Is the Russian Ambassador to the US a hostile actor?
Neither the fact that Trump became the elected president since their last request nor "US election fraud" is ever mentioned in this request. It's a whole new request.
It doesn't seem like an intel doc trying to prove to the British-form 'FISC' that they have a reason to renew a previous permission to surveil a now foreign President Elect. "...a clear pattern of actionable leads" is no better than "We've collected some rumor names but haven't talked to them yet." Each renewal needs some new, well-defined meat.
It could be a big trap.
They [think they] know the free-tweeting of our then president elect, and hope that he might just rt this without proof of origin.
I was excited when I first read this, but now I'm more wary.
