DOJ has released 412 pages of top-secret documents related to surveillance conducted against former Trump campaign chairman Carter Page.
Documents include an Oct2016 application and three renewal applications for FISA warrants against Page.
The NYT and other news outlets obtained the applications through a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit.
“The FBI believes Page has been the subject of targeted recruitment by the Russian government,” reads the FISA application.
“the FBI believes that Page has been collaborating and conspiring with the Russian government,” reads the initial FISA application, dated Oct. 21, 2016. The DOJ and FBI obtained 3 additional FISAs in Jan,Apr,Jun 2017.
The application also says that the FBI had probable cause to believe that Page engaged in “clandestine intelligence activities” and is an agent of a foreign power.
Republican and Democrats on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence previously released highlights from the documents. A memo released by Committee Chairman Devin Nunes has revealed that the DOJ and FBI relied heavily on the Democrat-funded Steele dossier in the FISA applications.
The dossier is the first piece of evidence cited in the FISA application section laying out the allegations that Page coordinated with Russian government officials on election-related “influence activities.”
Section cites information from “Source #1” who alleged that during a trip to Moscow in July 2016, Page met secretly with two sanctioned Kremlin insiders, Igor Sechin and Igor Diveykin, as part of a collusion scheme involving the Trump campaign.
Source appears to be Christopher Steele, former British spy who wrote the dossier.
Steele alleged in the dossier that Page worked with Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort to exchange information with Russian operatives. Page has vehemently denied the dossier’s allegations, and says he has never spoken to Manafort. He also says he has never met Sechin and Diveykin while denying that he is a Russian agent.

I did not notice that when I read it. It was called to my attention.
Manafort was the campaign chairman.
Carter Page was a foreign policy advisor.
Obama’s Civilian National Security Force
“We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.”

And there are 40,000+ sealed indictments increasing by 5,000+ every month compared to a normal level of about 1,000 PER YEAR.
Can’t move on any of this in a meaningful with Sessions at DOJ.
are we all holding our breath again for the OIG’s report on fisa abuse?
More of the same. I’ve always been 50/50 on the JFK thing, but seeing the number they have done & are doing on Trump I’m convinced that deep state scum bags in the 1960s blew JFk’s head off in Dallas.
I think Page was a Deep State PLANT into the Trump Campaign just SO they could spy on him and everybody around him!!
It's clear Page was somehow connected to Trump. It undeniable they both have a "p" in their last name.
What more does the Justice Department want? Sheesh!

i found the warren report uncredible...as for who dunnit who knows...but the warren report added more suspicion instead of clarification imo..
That’s right but they have accomplished their purpose so far,creating the diversion from the real COLLUSION and corruption of Hillary Clinton,Comey,Clapper,Brennan,Lynch.
The Clinton Foundation,Haiti,Russian purchase of our Uranium,millions of dollars to the Clinton Foundation through a post office box in Baltimore.
This corruption is massive which is why they had to resort to massive hysteria to cover it up,something that everybody seems to have fallen for,I hope somewhere there are patriots that will now change the narrative to the Democrats where the focus should be.
I think Trump is letting them die by “Death of a Thousand Cuts”.
Agree on all points.
Thanks.
There are a lot of puzzles. And 1-1/2 years into the Trump administration, it is time to blow the smoke away.
Expose what is behind the curtain.
The FISA .pdf is an image only file, no text and is in no way searchable. I did not examine the data associated with it, identifying the type of software that created it.
Almost everything about Carter W. Page is redacted. Indicating there is a serious problem with false accusation about him.
And who signed the Verification and the Certification?
Page #54 in FISA .pdf:
(U) Verification

Rosenstein also signed off on it. And the President has tweeted to confirm that Rosenstein signed off on FISA warrants. This is why Rosenstein has sat on the evidence that Congress has demanded. The evidence implicates him. If he had honor, he would resign. But he has no honor. He is trying to save his skin and that of his conspirators by running out the clock to the Midterms where the cabal will pull out all the stops to rig the election to take over Congress.
Background reports say the President has all the original documents and knows all the names and details. But the President must use the DOJ to bring charges for false FISA certifications but on this matter, the DOJ is headed by Rosenstein. This is why so many including Congress call for the President to declassify and release the documents but the President has been advised to stay uninvolved for now because if he declassifies and releases, the Mocking Bird Media will dominate the news cycle with “Trump is interfering in the DOJ investigation”.
Rest assured there is a gameplan held by the President’s team.
Rosenstein’s redactions compared to the unredacted documents held by the President make it obvious what Rosenstein is trying to hide.
Rosenstein is not carrying out this treachery on his own. He met in Canada (when the President was in Singapore with Kim Jong Un) with officials of ‘Five Eyes’ and the purpose was discerned to be how to deal with the coming Trump disclosures because the Singapore Summit was more than just a peace agreement, it was a transfer of information as to the illegal activity the global cabal had been doing in NK. Trump obtained indictable information on deep state actors through Singapore.
I get a dull gray headache every time I try to make sense of this crap.
I’m sure some in DC “get it”. All of it.
