This pretty much speaks for itself.

FBI Believed Trump Campaign Aide Carter Page Was Collaborating With Russia


Quote:


In the months leading up to the 2016 presidential election, the FBI believed that Carter Page, a campaign adviser to Donald Trump, was “conspiring and collaborating with the Russian government,” according to startling wiretap warrant applications released Saturday by the Justice Department. The 412 pages of documents, including an initial wiretap warrant application and three follow-up renewals, were heavily redacted. But they included damning passages concerning Page, who served for a time as a foreign policy adviser to the Trump campaign.

The FBI also believed that “Page has been collaborating and conspiring with the Russian government,” the document says, adding that “there is probable cause that such activities involve or are about to involve violations of the criminal statutes of the United States.”

According to Andrew McCarthy, former prosecutor who has been following all these follies very closely, the FBI lied to the FISC judge. They convicted Flynn of felony lying to the FBI. Shouldn't the agents who did this be sent away as well?

And each one makes this breathtaking representation:
The FBI has reviewed this verified application for accuracy in accordance with its April 5, 2001 procedures, which include sending a copy of the draft to the appropriate field office(s).
In reality, the applications were never verified for accuracy.

Stunning that anyone would excuse the biggest scandal in American history. We would never have known had Hillary won.

Page is one indictment from going to jail. Looks like they are waiting to get him when they get Trump family members.

Yes, either that or the dossier that was making these claims of Russian collusion is completely false, and the FBI used unverified information to gain a FISA warrant.

Well, seems that the FBI and others may just have a bit of a problem on their hands now that the FISA warrant application has been released to the public.

Looks like they had NO probable cause and no legal warrant as they LIED and failed to disclose information on said warrant application to get said warrant. Not good for the FBI...

When Trump was forced to backtrack on his Helsinki words ("wouldn't and would"), he had his notes on the table. Someone photographed those notes. Trump had added in marker "No colusion".

He must be thinking that if he says it often enough, people will believe it.
"In the months leading up to the 2016 presidential election, the FBI believed that Carter Page, a campaign adviser to Donald Trump, was “conspiring and collaborating with the Russian government,” according to startling wiretap warrant applications released Saturday by the Justice Department.

... adding that “there is probable cause that such activities involve or are about to involve violations of the criminal statutes of the United States.”
...

Page “has established relationships with Russian government officials, including Russian intelligence officers,” and that the FBI believed “the Russian government’s efforts are being coordinated with Page and perhaps other individuals associated with” Trump’s campaign.”

What lies all the information shown is true.. They treated it like a resume for Page. Gave all the highlights.

Trump has lied about the issue again today.
