Well not exactly, while the articles returned do mention Weismann, it is not in connection with him being involved with FISA warrant applications.

From the 1st article I glanced at:

Ohr’s testimony also had a stunning revelation that Andrew Weissmann, who was then head of the DOJ’s Criminal Fraud section and now Deputy Special Counsel for Robert Mueller, was also briefed by Ohr on his meetings with Steele. Those briefings took place during the summer of 2016, shortly after Ohr had met with Steele. The testimony, which has not yet been made public, was authenticated by sources from congressional testimony to SaraACarter.com.

From the second one I glanced at:

“Andrew Weissmann, who was then head of the DOJ’s Criminal Fraud section and now Deputy Special Counsel for Robert Mueller, was also briefed by Ohr on his meetings with Steele during the summer of 2016,” Carter writes.

Pretty much all of them are related stories of the same story, namely that Andrew Weissmann was the head of the DOJ’s Criminal Fraud section when Ohr briefed DOJ & FBI that it was opposition research paid for by Clinton and the DNC, and that none of the information had been vetted. Again, nothing related to securing FISA warrants. Let me remind you again what the statement was:

Strzok and Andrew Weissmann used the Clinton, DNC Kremlin disinformation Steele dossier to illegally obtain FISA warrants against Carter Page.

Weissmann & Strzok had knowledge of the illegality being perpetrated, however, neither participated in securing the FISA warrants. Thus I have a problem with that statement as written, and that was my point.

I believe Weismann’s boss, Sally Yates signed one of them...

Sure seems like I have heard Bongino saying exactly this for a year now... But maybe I am wrong.

Here is another article that I found trying to confirm it.

and this one talking about Sally Yates as being one of the five in deep trouble over it.
