In fact some on here assert they can read minds.
I'm not a fan of Wiki for facts, but there are links to statutes imbedded in the text that provide for legal foundations for comments.

Several matters reflect on some of the comments in here ...
The FISA Judges are Federal Judges who were appointed by a President and approved by Congress. As such they must be IMPEACHED by Congress as a Judge. Secondly, there are procedures in place for 3rd parties to file briefs regarding applications ... and an appeal process to review granting or denials of requests. Additionally, there are rules about "shopping" for a judge and finally few requests are denied.
I doubt a Federal judge would be "disbarred" or "impeached" for making an unpopular discretionary decision based on the "evidence" presented to them on an application.
