Comey Admits ‘I Was Wrong’ to Fox News: Horowitz Was ‘Right’ on Errors of FISA Process

Former FBI Director James Comey admitted he was “wrong” on Sunday morning, noting on Fox News Sunday that the recently released Justice Department inspector general’s report on the launch of the Russia probe did find there were “significant errors” in the FISA warrant applications on a former Trump campaign aide.
