At 8:15pm last evening Washington Post journalist Devlin Barrett posted a supportive article for the CNN news exclusive that outlined an "FBI Official" who was under criminal investigation as an outcome of the inspector general review of FISA. The original WaPo article by Devlin Barrett noted the FBI official was actually a "Line-level" lawyer who worked "Under FBI Agent Peter Strzok."
Above: 8:15pm Washington Post Screen Grab prior to 12:15am edit ~. However, that said, the edit(s) help to identify the identity of the FBI lawyer.
If you have followed the case closely, the intentional removal of Peter Strzok in combination with the explanation of the lawyer's FISA responsibilities; and in combination with prior reporting of FBI lawyer 2; it seems pretty obvious the line-level lawyer was Kevin Clinesmith.
In the Carter Page FISA application FBI line-level lawyer Clinesmith is responsible for the underlying evidence.
According to the Washington Post the lawyer was "Forced to resign." Further confirmation of the identity is found within the LinkedIn profile for Kevin Clinesmith, which shows he left the FBI in September.
First, the DOJ/FBI team, "The small group", specifically the legal officials who were ultimately participating in the process that permits politicization and weaponization of government intelligence systems, was also the exact same legal group who reviewed the 2018 inspector general report into FBI conduct during the 2016 election outlining the DOJ and FBI activity.
If he's altering an email, it sounds to me like Clinesmith is modifying communication with an FBI source to construct a citation for a claim within the FISA application; perhaps that FBI source is Christopher Steele.
