Carter Page: Agent 000

Ann Coulter  "If you’ve been watching MSNBC and, consequently, have no idea what was in the CONTROVERSIAL! DISPUTED! AMATEURISH! memo released by the House Intelligence Committee (the “Nunes memo”), here is a brief summary:

"The Hillary Clinton campaign and Democratic National Committee paid a Trump-hating British private eye, Christopher Steele, to produce a “dossier” on Trump, relying on Russian sources.
"The Department of Justice used the unverified dossier to obtain a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant against Carter Page, an alleged “foreign policy adviser” to Donald Trump and the last frayed thread of the Russian collusion story. The FISA court was not told who had paid Steele to create the “salacious and unverified” dossier – in the words of the showboating former FBI Director James Comey – much less about Steele’s personal hatred of Trump.
"After 18 months of steely-eyed investigation, the only parts of the dossier that have been “confirmed” are bland factual statements – Moscow is a city in Russia – while the untrue parts are anything having to do with Trump or his associates.
"As New York Times national security reporter Matthew Rosenberg explained to MSNBC’s easily excited Chris Hayes last March:
“Both journalists and others who had copies of it for a long time have not been able to report much of it out. We’ve heard that, you know, the FBI and the Intelligence Community believe about 30 percent of it may be accurate, but most of that 30 percent, if not all, has been non-Trump stuff.”
"Four points:" . . .
