It does not appear this made any difference in the extension of the warrant:
"But later in 2017, a supervisory F.B.I. agent handling the third and final renewal application asked Mr. Clinesmith for a definitive answer on whether Mr. Page had been an agency source, according to Mr. Horowitz’s report.
Mr. Clinesmith incorrectly said that Mr. Page was “never a source” and sent the C.I.A.’s information to the supervisor. He altered the original email to say that Mr. Page had not been a source — a material change to a document used in a federal investigation."
No, I am not justifying his actions. He screwed up and should pay the appropriate penalty.
However, this is not anything for the conspiracy subscribers to get excited about. From another source on the same subject:
"Prosecutors did not reveal any evidence in charging documents that show Mr. Clinesmith’s actions were part of any broader conspiracy to undermine Mr. Trump. And the Justice Department’s independent inspector general, Michael E. Horowitz, has found that law enforcement officials had sufficient reason to open the Russia investigation, known inside the F.B.I. as Crossfire Hurricane, and found no evidence that they acted with political bias."

Ex-F.B.I. Lawyer Expected to Plead Guilty in Review of Russia Inquiry
Prosecutors did not reveal any evidence of the kind of broad anti-Trump conspiracy among law enforcement officials that the president has long alleged.

What? I'll take a Constitutional attorney like Mark Levin or a former Secret Service agent like Dan Bongino or Flynn's attorney, Sidney Powell over any of your fake conspiracy claptrap. It's too bad you can't see through the echo chamber you've dug for yourself.

It long time and a low level confession I hope it leads up to the real people in charge of this pile of wasted BS
