YES, and there is a comment below the CTH article that spells out just how vast the reach of the FISA warrant is when the FBI/DOJ files it under "Title I" (foreign agent or espionage):

"A Harvard lawyer lurker. First and maybe last ever comment. This post highlights a very important distinction, UNDERLINED (for good reason, but not explained) in the Nunes memo, NOT title 7.17 about inquiries concerning incidental US citizen contacts with foreign citizens surveilled (the separate unmasking scandal). Title 1 allows not only surveillance of US citizen Carter Page (accused of being a foreign agent by the Clinton financed Steele Trump hating dossier), but also follow up surveillance of any of his direct contactsthe entire Trump team, irrespective of when Page stopped being a campaign advisor. Logic of FISA title one is simplecatch the entire spy network. Result is horrific. Any Page call or email to the Trump team exposed the entire Trump team to surveillance under title 1 of FISA. Really dirty. Trumps wiretap tweet was correct. Admiral Rodgers only knew the lesser part of it."

True, but we do not know how much Admiral Rogers knew. He might have been informed about the whole attempted coup. It would explain Trump’s wiretap tweet.

Right!!!
Approval of a FISA application requires the court find probable cause that the target of the surveillance be a “foreign power” or an “agent of a foreign power”, .......[NOTE]..and that the places at which surveillance is requested is used or will be used by that foreign power or its agent
Carter Page would have called Trump tower or visit there and therefore the FBI, CIA or whoever could legally bugged Trump tower and other Trump campaign places because thats where the foreign agent would make communications!!!

Wow....this (Title I) makes it worse than we thought.
