I disagree with Maria. The problem isn't just that there were corrupt individuals in FBI. The problem is the very structure of the FISA court. Our system is based on organized distrust of power, with protections built in so that the defendant gets "discovery" and a chance to defend themselves. If exculpatory materials are left out, then the attorneys involved are in a lot of trouble, UNLESS it's a FISA application. Where there are no protections, there WILL be abuse.
Comey, Strzok, and the rest are definitely corrupt, but in the USA, they should not have been able to do as much damage as they did. FISA is not only ripe for abuse, it violates the U.S. Constitution, and the traditions of Common Law. This time it was Comey. Before that it was Hoover. We're just waiting for the next one, and there WILL be a next one until and unless FISA is shut down or RADICALLY reformed.
