Yesterday, the Department of Justice released a heavily redacted version of the FISA warrant used to surveil 2016 Trump campaign volunteer Carter Page. Sen. Lindsey Graham told CBS's 'Face The Nation' on Sunday that Steele's dossier was "garbage," and because "they never told the court that he was a paid operative in the Democratic Party" the FISA warrant (and those who filed it) need serious scrutiny.
MARGARET BRENNAN: This morning the president is again accusing the Justice Department and the FBI of misleading courts and illegally surveilling his campaign. Hes pointing to these documents that were just released about Carter Page who was a campaign associate and has admitted to having advised the Kremlin at one point. You sit on Senate Judiciary. Is the president wrong? SEN. GRAHAM: No I think that the whole FISA award process needs to be looked at. The warrant on Carter Page was supported mostly by dossier that came from Steele who is being paid by the Democratic Party to do opposition research and the dossier was collected I think from Russian intelligence services and if you ask the FBI today how much of the dossier on Trump has been verified. Almost none of it.

Oh no.....you have it all wrong...No violations of the Constitution!!...just a few over zealous government “patriots” trying to do whats “right” for the country....yes they broke the law...but their “intent” was pure.....give them all a purple heart and pass a law saying “Nobody is above the Law” and things will be fine in the future......No need to make a Federal Case about it...../s
Lindsey Graham knew this all along. He’s just covering his ass with this statement.
even idiots can understand the documents prove what we already knew - the FBI used the fake, unverified dossier by a foreign agent, Steele, paid for by Hillary Clinton and her DNC, to get a warrant to spy on the Donald Trump campaign.
and Donald Trump became President.
> Another two year committee investigation that leads no where??
Woah! Slow down. Let’s not get ahead of ourselves. There needs to be a series of hearings and several procedural votes before any investigation starts.
Libs are unable to deal with reality.
We already knew that Linda. Did you read the Nunes memo.
Trump can fire Rosenweasel
***************
By now there are literally hundreds of reasons to fire him, but in spite of the massive corruption (which is still ongoing) Trump doesn’t seem willing to do it. To me firing Rosenweael would be one giant step toward making good on Trump’s promise to drain the Swamp.
Rosenweasel is the epitome of a corrupt and defiant DC Swamp creature. The rest of the Swamp denizens see him getting away with it and they too decided to continue their resistance.
I’m a Trump supporter, but this point, not firing Rosenweasel is simply inexcusable. The fact of the matter is, the country would love to see him do it.
Graham needs to have a talk with little Rubio.
Graham has had his moments during the Trump term. Ill give him credit for getting past the petty stuff during the primary.
Exactly. RR is the lynch pin. You fire him you break Muellers back. I really don’t think Trump knows how much his base despises the evil little prick. He can appoint a white hat interim- think what that could do.
Jeez how much cause do you need.
We are obviously in agreement regarding the need to can Rosenweasel. And I would like to see it done in the most disrespectful way possible. Ditto for Sessions.
However, I am also deeply concerned about the message that is being sent by leaving Rosenweasel in his job. Its very damaging to the country to see such corruption, obstruction, and political partisanship being left in place with no consequences or accountability. The man threatened members of the United State Congress for crying out loud! The effect this is all is having on our highest law enforcement institutions cannot be overstated. And the distrust is creeping into other federal agencies as well.
I appreciate the problems this poses for Trump, but at some point enough is enough. Its time to put out the fire. Its his job to do it.

Steele’s dossier was garbage it’s why Mueller looks like a dumpster fire and the media add the fuel.
I was disappointed in the fake news coverage, or lackthereof. This is a HUGE story.
The Steele Dossier....”based on Russian Intel”, was a HIT PIECE on TRUMP, designed to DESTROY him......so did Trump collude with the Russians to DESTROY HIMSELF?? What a FARCE!Most of America is so gullible.
It might be called :giving them the rope”.
