carter page, who, what? hope hicks at the same time said the same thing, carter page was an informal adviser. he certainly doesn't speak for the trump campaign. jason miller was a trump campaign spokesman at the time, one of the people who has since been thrown off the carousel. he said at the time carter page has no role in the campaign, despite the fact that now president trump had, himself, announced carter page as one of trump's top foreign advisers. basically they're trying to disappear him. jason miller said, quote, we are not aware of any of his activities, past or present. we're not even aware if he's a real boy. can you prove it? who? the reason they tried to disappear him, the reason they pretended, before the election, that they had definitely never met this guy, he had definitely never been announced by donald trump at a washington post editorial meeting as one of trump's top five foreign policy advisers -- the reason they tried to pretend that didn't happen was carter page became a problem. he h

we're talking about carter page. if you go back, the fbi had him on their radar back in 2013 and 2014 as part of an investigation in new york of a russian spy ring. and the fbi talked to him then and told him that the russians were trying to cultivate him. and so all of this is what was contained in the 50 or so pages of in -- of this warrant application. and so i think one of the things that i think is missing from this is that additional context. >> and also the renewal is a big part of this because as cara was saying there were two people that trump -- there were two trump appointees who were part of the renewal process. that's rod rosenstein, the deputy attorney general, and dana bente, acting attorney general then the deputy attorney general and was running the national security division. these are two people who participated in the approval process during the renewal. >> dana bente was the person that helped enforce the travel ban after valuey yates refused to do so. >> we're in the weeds on this because we cov

but this carter page one, for whatever reason, it been around. we've known about it, there's been a ton of reporting about it. for some reason people knew enough about this fisa warrant about carter page to be kibitzing about it, so much so that it got picked up in multiple news organizations. it's been clear for a long time that the trump white house and republicans have wanted to make that into a scandal. it's been clear for months. cart are page made that clear in the intervi -- chris hayes interview. how did anybody know about it in the first place? we still don't know. but now it confirmed publicly because they did, as carter page said they would, they took their big shot at it today. they declassified the information about that warrant and what led to it, selectively, so they could take their big shot, so they could finally figure out the highest use they could put that warrant to. they'd use this memo to make the russia investigation go away. poof. they would show that the fisa warrant for carter page was based on the steele dossier. the s

. >> to the best of my recollection, i don't know carter page. to the best of my knowledge, carter page never had a donald trump.e-mail address, had no former role in the campaign that i'm aware of. >> i don't think i have ever spoken to him. i don't think i have ever met him. >> all right, so now, david, carter page is so important. he's the nucleus of why this memo had to be released. the memo, you know, is very critical of the fisa application process on carter page, this former adviser. so david, what's really going on here? >> so, i think carter page is significant but not as significant as the administration or chairman nunes in this case maybe wants him to be. he slid in and slid out of the campaign. my understanding from reading the memo and other reporting is that the surveillance of him based on the fisa warrants started taking place after he had left the campaign. i think what is more significant in the nunes memo is this idea that the fbi and the justice

carter, please stand. >> reporter: the judge's verdict. where will michelle carter spend the best years of her life? when we come back. >> i think a lot of people were a little surprised that that's what actually happened. >> reporter: stay with us. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ the gig-speed network that powers the dreams of america's businesses is now doing the same for america's olympic and paralympic athletes. dream gig. comcast business. >>> june 16th, 2017. decision day at the usually quiet courthouse in historic downtown taunton, massachusetts. the press out in full force, anticipating judgment day for michelle carter. she strides into court escorted by court officers and her defense team. then upstairs to hear the judge's decision on whether she caused the death by suicide of boyfriend conrad roy. >> it was a packed courtroom and many relatives of conrad roy were filling the first couple of rows. >> reporter: more than a half dozen white-shirted court officers stand guard near the carter and roy families. >> the

this very invasive surveillance of carter page. it's very important for us to sort of understand that timeline. because we now know that what nunes and what some of the republicans have been saying and what the president had suggested, which was that the fbi was spying on his campaign, that's not true. according to this memo. this memo says that carter page was gone from the campaign, from the trump campaign by the time this surveillance begins in october of 2016. it's also interesting here to remind people, because there's been a lot of focus on this steele dossier, and there's some salacious details in there, according to the democratic memo, there's very limited parts of steele's information that are used to support the application to do the surveillance of carter page. none of the salacious details, we're not going to get into them. we're going to the vite people to go to koogal if they want to read some of that stuff, but the information that they use is very, very limited, according to the democratic memo that's been released

i don't think i have ever met him. >> i have never met carter page, carter page never had a donald trump email address. had no formal role in the campaign at all. >> he was not part of our campaign security briefings that we do. >> he's not part of the campaign anymore? >> he's certainly not part of the campaign that i'm running. >> wide, wide historical references to carter page matter. that is the record, apart from, what is being claimed as this memo comes out. it suggests that the -- i'm not telling you the entire facts, i'm telling you what the memo alleges, which we have not verified, and the -- it goes on to speculate that the fbi's once deputy director recently pushed out, also said, quote, no surveillance warrant would have ever been sought without that dossier information. that is up for dispute as well. and i'll break that down later in the show. meanwhile the memo lists all of the officials who were involved in signing off on the application to do this surveillance. this is normal, this is actually how the process typically works and you see them there, comey, mccabe, yates,

i want to ask you a couple of questions about carter page. first of all, this fisa warrant to surveil, to spy on carter page, is in october 2016. if there is a bias against then candidate, now president trump, why would beginning to surveil carter page -- surveillance, of course, takes months if not years. it's not like you spy on somebody once. it's a whole long, drawn-out process. why doing something a few weeks before the presidential election reveal some horrific political bias against donald trump? do you see what i'm saying? it would not have an impact on the presidential election. >> right, exactly. and the argument is made if there was bias that james comey would have talked about this before the election. he would have raised concerns about the trump campaign ties to russia. as we know, he reopened the hillary clinton clinton investigation but he didn't talk about this until march, until after the election. so it sort of raises the question well, if there was political bias, why didn't he mention it before the election? also, it's in

and one last point on carter page. carter page sat before the house intelligence committee in november. he spoke on the record. there's a transcript of that interview for hours. and through the course of questioning from democrats on that committee, he detailed his interactions with russians, travels to russia and said he has a moscow sim card which would be able to use when traveling overseas. so the idea that carter page -- that there's no evidence beyond the simpson memo, the steele memo, to underscore why he might have been subject of scrutiny, it's belied by the carter page's own testimony before the very members of the committee that are releasing this report. >> and in fact, he came back on their radar after the election by going back to moscow and giving a public speech. the embassy was alerted to it. a public speech praising the russians and discounting any criticism of their involvement in the election. peter alexander at the white house with all this comment on the nunes memo and its provenance and whether t

the fact is that carter page had nothing to do with it. when he was on the campaign he had nothing to do with it. nobody asked him for anything, he never spoke to anyone of significan significance, he never met donald trump. i think it's important to bring it out the court's attention rather than using the interlocutory footnote. >> of course it was funded by the republican -- >> totally untrue. what you're talking about is the washington examiner did hire the research firm to do research on donald trump and other candidates. but they had ended their relationship, the steele dossier came in only after clinton and the dnc got involved. the washington examiner -- no republican had anything to do with the steele dossier. >> that was the washington free beacon, not the washington examiner. that is a conservative outlet. but i guess the point i would make -- >> no no no. this is wrong. this is part of the misstatements that are being put out about the trump campaign. the fact is that when you talk about preliminary research which had been ended

carter, it's good to see you tonight. i know you have not spoken out about this house intel memo yet more the reaction to it. what is your reaction? >> welcome a first reaction, lara, when i saw it was, you know, there was a lot of details that kept tripping out. it sounded really bad. when i actually saw it, it was even worse than i could've possibly imagine. but what was particularly interesting is the next 48 hours after that where part of the attack on chairman nunes and the committee was to come up with any new information to discredit me and anything related to the investigation or the overall investigation and all the great work that he has been doing. it's pretty stark contrast between getting the facts out there, having -- still getting attacked. >> laura: wow there this is what donnie trump said earlier tonight. ed referred to the interview he did a short while ago with tucker carlson. he was asked about you. this is what he said. >> this is a low-level person who worked in the campaign. this is someone who -- w

. >> to do surveillance on carter page. they say that because there was information used from this so-called dossier, that it really wrecks all of this. it makes it illegitimate. if you look at this memo, it doesn't back that up. in fact, it undermines some of the central points. it says, for instance, that there was other intelligence beyond the dossier, beyond the information that came from christopher steele, the british mi-6 agent who prepared it, that was used to get the warrants. if says that christopher steele had provided previously credible information to the fbi on other investigations. let me tell you, when you do a fisa application, i think one of the members of congress tonight on our air said there were 50 pages in it. when a judge looks at it, the fact that christopher steele provided credible information on previous cases would be very important for that consideration, for that judge. probably more important than the fact it was paid for by political operatives. >> the memo goes on to note at the end that th

i've never got aten a bead on carter page. you wonder whether he's actually -- you know, what he's actually doing. we have bigger issues to go after. i won't try to prejudge what the ranking member might try to do. as you know steve bannon came before the committee and had this incredibly expansive claim of executive privilege, couldn't even ask him about the transition when the president wasn't president. we have some pretty big issues to deal with. i'm not sure his contradictions are at the top of the list. >> congressman jim himes, thank you, sir. i appreciate it. i will tell you the house intelligence committee tomorrow will hear from a very important, very powerful official. tomorrow hope hicks. yes, it will be behind closed doors. we'll still try to figure out what happens. we'll be right back. no, please, please, oh! ♪ (shrieks in terror) (heavy breathing and snorting) no, no. the running of the bulldogs? surprising. what's not surprising? how much money aleia saved by switching to geico. fifteen minutes could save yo

. >> especially carter page. imagine this. you have evidence that the russians were trying to intervene in our election to the advantage of donald trump. he wanted to hurt hillary clinton. we know that. and carter page operating as an endear immediate area between the trump people and the russians, very much tied in with the russian oligarchs. here is a guy who clearly was one of the ways that the russians were using or people in russia were using to try to make themselves available to trump people. and then why wouldn't the fbi check this guy out? wouldn't you want to know what the russians were saying to him on the phone? of course you would. you want to know how the russians were using them. >> they had their eyes on him from 2013, right? >> yeah. so seems to me for the republican party under trump and for mr. nunes and all those staff people, that basically hooked their whole case on the fact that they believe the carter page should not have been surveilled. that's their main case. this guy's a little goofy in his manner a

it goes on and on about carter page but doesn't explain how carter page is relevant to the overall investigation. >> jeremy, what this seems to do, no matter what he did in the hotel room in russia, they have a list of names that i think donald trump has actually fired everybody on it except rod rosenstein. so just reaffirms their bias against the people that donald trump rails on. but to the 67% of americans who are either deep skeptics of his presidency who are wondering what he's up to, it is proof positive that he had someone who was known by counter intelligence agencies to be an agent of a foreign power on his campaign. he brought him in or he was planted in that campaign. and i remember the first time you posited that, i burst out laughing. i said, what are you talking about? you've now got manafort who was doing business with pro-putin oligarchs. you've got carter page who since 2013 has been surveilled as part of our counter intelligence efforts to protect this country. and you've got a memo with basically a trump enemy's list, and what makes them all enemies is they found out about it.

carter page and devin nunes. o >> adam schiff insisted that once his memo came out, it would contradict everything in the republican nunes memo, it supports nothing and it corroborates everything in the nunes memo. o schiff should be embarrassed and ashamed. for example, he said the fbi and the department of justice followed the fisa laws, did everything properly. we now know that is completely untrue. they broke the fisa laws. schiff said that the fisa court will show, properly advised about the political inaction -- that is a lie, and as ♪ ♪ points out that he was lying aboutwa that. you go through every part of the memo, and it corroborateses and supports nunes' memo. >> sean: that is the point. that dossier was key, sara, no dossier, no fisa application, never mind warrant, they withheld the clinton bought and paid for part of it, everything was corroborated that a nunes and the grassley-graham memo said. everything, they corroborate. >> absolutely. the implicateve themselves. this is the fbi director, fo

perhaps that was carter, what carter despised, her perfection, absence of a single flaw. she never changed. while people gained weight, their skin wrinkled and sagged, their hair grayed, barbie stood perfect and frozen against a changing world. while she remained ageless and pristine, the world she had been born into ceased to exist. everything was raunchier and more preverse. barbie remained maddeningly clean. carter saw beauty in the broken, the peculiar, the year, perhaps even the grotesque. like many people trapped in dead-end jobs, he experienced the angst of a servant. he imagined a new icon that better reflected the mod everybody world -- modern world, using the real people. carter had not intendered to assault barbie's -- intended to assault barbie's public image. he could not have consciously dared to dream of the millions he would make from his rebellion, the millions in ini suing losses -- ensuing losses and the decade-long legal battle that would forever alter both the entire toy industry and the very laws governing creativity9 and competition. he certainly co

carter page, like the schiff memo is claiming. why wasn't carter page been charged with a crime? if the evidence against page is so overwhelming, you know, that the fbi didn't need the phony dossier to get a warrant. again, just like schiff and the democrats are claiming, then why was it used? now, schiff writes that carter page actually talked to the fbi in march of 2016. after the fbi got the dossier, months later why wouldn't they just go to talk to page again and find out what he knew. he cooperated in march. getting a fisa warrant on an american citizen is supposed to be the last resort. it should only be necessary when the foreign intelligence that the government is seeking cannot be obtained through normal investigative techniques. from what we now know, the fbi didn't get in contact with page again when the bureau apparently got their hands on the phony dossier in the fall of 2016 only months before the election. now, why wouldn't the fbi do that when page had already been corroborating? none of this makes sense. and then again maybe it isn't supposed to because the truth

but the notion that they never would have gone after carter page is just inaccurate and as we know, carter page had been an interest to the fbi years prior. >> why didn't they do it before? why didn't they do it before? why was it that the dossier prompted it. >> the dossier -- to answer your question is the dossier did not exist when the fbi first started investigating carter page. >> hang on for one second. this is a great discussion but i would like to take a quick break and continue this discussion in just a minute. # money managers are pretty much the same. all but while some push high commission investment products, fisher investments avoids them. some advisers have hidden and layered fees. fisher investments never does. and while some advisers are happy to earn commissions from you whether you do well or not, fisher investments fees are structured so we do better when you do better. maybe that's why most of our clients come from other money managers. fisher investments. clearly better money management. need a change of scenery? the kayak price forecast tool tells you whether to wait

that memo is about one thing, the surveillance of carter page. the former trump adviser who has been on the fbi's radar for weirdness since 2013. the russian document or the republican document reads like a press release. its authors accuse the feds of abusing the authority to spy on a former trump campaign adviser in its investigation. the top democrat warns the memo leaves out the full picture and key pieces of evidence. context matters and it's missing. according to the memo, former fbi director or i should say deputy director andrew mccabe said that without the trump dossier, there would have been an investigation. mccabe testified in 2017 that no surveillance warrant would have been sought from the fisa without the steele dossier information. the political document leaves out the fact that page caught the attention of fbi officials way back in 2013 when the feds recorded a suspected russian spy saying he might be able to leverage the former trump adviser for information. democrats on house intelligence committee released a statement after th

even't know how we look at what is publicly out there about carter page. forget what is in the classified fisa application, and that have that much trouble understanding why any justice department any political affiliation would not have been interested in pursuing an investigation against him based on what we know. host: alan is next, stevens, north carolina. from fayetteville, go ahead. caller: my question is, why do these republicans listen to fox news this information? i am so glad that you have a ban on like this that explains the situation. it is a sham. you see what the republicans did, they put something out there for all of the trump supporters to eat it up, and they are eating it up. it will be egg in their face. thank god for having a man like this. carolina, from north thanks. mr. vladek, is that your assessment? caller: i would not go all the way to it is a total sham. guest: the question is what is the endgame? was it possible the government was a bit overzealous in the fisa court and how it portrayed the steele dossier? sure. the problem is

i think there is an interesting question, i suppose, about whether carter paige, the application to carter paige -- to surveil carter paige was legitimate. this memo doesn't really help us get to that place and answer that question. to do that we'd actually have to see the entire application. but, remember, the surveillance had to be renewed every 90 days. it was renewed three times. and my understanding of how you get those renewals is you have to go back to the judge and you have to show that the surveillance is actually fruitful. >> right. >> so that's important. i think one of the important things here is are any of the judges -- and i'm pretty sure it is more than one judge that allowed this surveillance to happen the first time and through renewals. will any of those judges come forward and say, well, we don't like what the fbi did here. will any of them be as outraged as some of the republicans are. and, you know, if we want to know the full story, we have to see the original application. but my view of the memo is it is sort of interesting. it is interesting to learn about the fisa

this is important because the devin nunes memo this has to all do with the carter page a former trump foreign policy adviser, the fisa warrant application that was submitted and approved in order to surveil on him. republicans claimed in their memo that there were not enough evidence presented to the fisa court about the political sources and the possible political motivations behind. democrats tried to have released at the same time rebutting some of the key claims, that did not happen. the white house has now after a period of review with the democrats reviewed some of the information that was included in their response, declassified it and made some redactions to it. what we haven't seen is the actual memo itself. that is up to both chairman devin nunes who's actually speaking right now at a conservative gathering just outside washington, and adam schiff, the top democrat who was the lead author of this memo. it's up to either one of them to release that publicly. we'll be interested in reading more about what the response to the republican memo says. what we understand that it doe

carter page made that clear in the chris hayes interview in october. i think also based on the timing this may be what they tried to turn into the trump tower wiretapping thing and devin n nunes. we don't know. it's confirmed public ly, a big shot today. they declassified the information selectively. they take their big shot so they can finally figure out, they used this memo. to make the russia investigation go away, poof. right? they would show that the fisa warrant for carter page was steele dossier they will say was their source of the fbi russia there is no more russia investigation. problem solved. as i mentioned at the top, this plan was under cut. which notes in passing quote, the fisa application mentions information regarding fellow campaign advisor george papadopoul papadopoulos. in late july, it was other intelligence that the fbi had about contacts about the trump campaign and russians. they weren't made up and result in a guilty plea and a cooperating witness. whoops. why did they put that in their big memo? they could put anything in her

and the time bill was running the arkansas carter campaign, it hillary went to indiana and ran the carter campaign there and .elped set up campaign offices their lives were very much about political campaigns and working on behalf of democrats across the country. bill became the attorney general rather easily in 1976 and two years later would become the country's youngest governor in 1978. when bill and hillary were married, hillary kept her maiden which would've been unusual in 1975 and arkansas of course but even across the country. she really kept her look and she wore glasses and no makeup and natural hair, that kind of thing. after bill lost his second term as governor in 1980, the two of them really regrouped. you see at the beginning of the 1980's her transformation and his transformation politically, thinking about what the people needed most and her transformation into what arkansas would've considered in appropriate first lady. hair, startedr wearing contact lenses, started wearing makeup, you see her close change a lot -- her clothing change a lot. 1982, clinton ran for governo

that carter page knew about that involved paul ryan. that they would try to use this warrant against carter page to make a public case to try to turn that warrant into some sort of public information that presumably would be used to turn the russia investigation into a scandal. and now it's happened. and it's such a bust. it's worth being clear this is something they have been trying to figure out a way to use for a very long time. apparently the let's release the classified information about what led to the warrant plan, apparently that plan was in the works since last october when carter page blurted it out to chris hayes. it's also worth noting that even before that last march you remember the obama wiretapped trump tower scandal? march of last year right at the start of his administration, trump made that strange allegation, terrible, just found out that obama had my wires tapped in trump tower. just before the victory. he said i bet a could lawyer could make a great case that president obama was tapping my phones in october. trump

the biggest thing i have the concern that chris hayes interviewed carter page in october. at that time he said the ryan would come out with a memo. how did he know that in october? >> host: how are the judges picked embedded? the court is comprised of 11 federal district judges. books have been nominated by any president than their chosen by the chief justice to be designated to the fisa court for a seven-year term. to there's a situation where the judge was nominated by the last couple presidents but then i think it further dissipates the charge that we start to see over the weekend that we should trust the judges but president obama. >> again, the real question is not so much the timing. i think it's always been a part of the plan to try to raise concerns about the carter page application, the real question is why are folks buying it given how much objective information is out there. second, even if it was in doesn't call into question the mueller investigation. as tri-county suggested yesterday i think were inclined to have different conversations given the nature of ou

go back to carter page again. there is a theory that rosenstein applied for an extension, a renewal of surveillance of carter page based in part of the dossier. but we don't know that. we haven't seen it. david: it's like the day before christmas, everybody wants to know what's in it. byron: let's keep our heads about us. president trump calling out dem's hypocrisy on immigration. president trump: we want to take care of daca. we need the democrats' support to do it. they talk like they do, but i don't think they do. david: we'll take that up with michelle malkin. high-flying acrobatics. we'll show you the exhilarating (siren wailing) (barry murrey) when you have a really traumatic injury, we have a short amount of time to get our patient to the hospital with good results. we call that the golden hour. evaluating patients remotely is where i think we have a potential to make a difference.

does carter page stride a free man if he has betrayed his country. heavy charges throwing around against someone who has not been indicted or convicted and against whom there is no publicly available evidence. and i don't understand why you continue to do that. >> why carter page is walking a street is a question that should keep at love republicans up at night. let's just leave it at that. >> tucker: it's hard to believe you would say something like that on live television. do you have evidence that he is working against america. >> no, i have absolutely no evidence. when the guy has been under surveillance by the fbi since 2013 and interest were five martin luther king. >> tucker: martin luther king was under surveillance for more than a decade by the fbi. does that mean he is guilty? >> you can't get fisa renewal unless you show the judge evidence that american citizen involved with what you are claiming he is involved with. >> tucker: we know now and its indisputable, part of that evidence, the lead of the fisa request was the trump dossier which

first one is that the warrants that were sought for carter page to surveil carter page at the time a former advisor to the trump campaign. nunes argues warrants were based largely on this dossier of evidence of trump compiled by the christopher steel. which was funded by fusion gps paid for by the democratic party. in effect saying he was surveilled by something that was pushed by democrats. the other argument that nunes makes is that the judge who approved the application in fact multiple applications renewals for this warrant was not told of the origin of the money behind fusion gps which paid for the dossier. making a claim that really that warrant in effect was based on democratic money and the judge was not away. >> there are parts of this memo that some in congress are disputing. and actually other parts which undermine the conservatives time line. >> it does. let's start on facts and dispute. they go to the two issues i mention. on the issue the warrant was based mostly and even says ann due mccay the deputy director of fbi said the house intelligence committee the warrant wou

it's not quleesh how carter -- it's not clear how carter page would lift sanctions on russia. but so far those allegations, as far as we know, none have been confirmed. david: another party interested in removing the sanctions on russia, not just mr. putin, but also the fusion gps people who were out to discredit the people who put the sanctions on russia. it points to the fact if there was any collusion at all, fusion gps was paid for by the dnc and the hillary campaign. they were working with people close to putin. if there is any collusion it looks like there was collusion between the democrats and russia than trump and russia. byron: fution was work both sides of the street. we know they were hired by putin-linked the russians to repeal the sanctions. so if you look at the dossier, it quote source starks within source b and source c. one of them is a kremlin official, a former kremlin official, and a businessman connected to the kremlin. you have to wonder if the russians are feeding that information to fusion gps and fuchs is on both sides of this thing. david: clearly th

remind us again, who is carter page? >> carter page is a foreign policy adviser who worked for the trump campaign. he's made many trips to russia and has links to russia. and he has figured into the mueller probe by all accounts as a periphery figure. not someone who is super important. looking at this memo, one thing that jumps out to me as we look at the footage of carter page when he came out and had spoken to the congressional investigators, this memo with regards to the mueller probe is a dud. and let me just repeat that having read it and covered the story for a while. as to the mueller probe, this memo is a dud. it doesn't say anything or even reference any evidence that calls into question the wider mueller probe. the entire memo makes an argument without the underlying evidence which may be a good thing because of the rules but makes the argument that the independent judges, 80% of them are republican on the fisa court, who approved the surveillance of carter page in october 2016 and reauthorizationed, shouldn't

dossier and there was plenty of additional evidence including carter page's own words. not to prove that he was guilty of spying on behalf of the russians, but just to create probable cause that would allow the government to convince any federal judge in that position to authorize further investigations, to authorize some kind of surveillance. what i find so remarkable about this situation is that the republicans by getting so invested in this memo and trying to use this memo to discredit the mueller investigation have really picked an odd figure to basically rest all their hopes on in carter page. i don't know how we look at even what is publicly out there about carter page. >> going to leave washington journal here. you can find this and any segment online at www.c-span.org . click on the series cap on the main page and select washington journal. take you live to the floor of the u.s. house for morning hours. members will take up legislative work later today with nine bills on the calendar. including one next but adding military sales to jordan

and so they had these interactions with carter page. so in march of 2016, keep in mind, march of 2016 is when donald trump first named him and cites him as a foreign policy adviser to his campaign. so this is part of the information of what the fbi is working with at this point. according to the schiff memo, the democratic memo, it's not until september of 2016 that the now infamous steele dossier comes into the hands of the investigators who are doing this investigation. this counterintelligence investigation of the russian meddling and contacts with the trump campaign. so seven weeks after they had initially opened this investigation is when they finally obtained a copy of the steele dossier. at this point, the fbi was working with various parts of it, and then in october, ryan, they go to the fisa court, to the foreign intelligence surveillance court, and ask for permission to do this very invasive surveillance of carter page. so the timeline is the investigation is opened in july of 2016. seven weeks later or so, the investigative t

in which carter page was vex a target. so those circumstances of carter page's already existing, the information that existed already about his cross section, the intersection, would be very pertinent in a case like this. but let me say this. let me point to a couple things i can talk about. you see in this memo there's no evidence that page and papadopoulos were conspiring together. so the suggestion is it was inappropriate to include this information about papadopoulos or it doesn't strengthen the application. the fact is, papadopoulos was approached by the russians and told that the russians had stolen hillary clinton's e-mails, dirt on hillary clinton. and this took place in april of the election year. so they were making an approach to one of the trump foreign policy advisers. what was page? another of the trump foreign policy advisers and the russian were making an approach to him, too. and the part of the steele dossier and the impression that it was all in there, salacious video and all, it was not correct. the par

on carter page anti-trump? >> they obviously were spying on carter page because they thought he was going to provide access to trump. whether he did or not is another question. frankly, i don't see the disconnect here. you could say carter page wasn't deeply involved in the campaign, but if the fbi thought so and went about a process to spy on him because of that, that's the problem. >> congresswoman? >> you know that what brought carter page to the attention of the fbi was an australian. that happened long before. >> the australian was with george papadopoulos. >> doesn't mentinald trump ments advising him at a time when he didn't have a lot of advisers. >> the thing that is really amazing to me is i don't understand why the republican leadership would go so far as to support trump in this matter. to me, i know they're concerned about their agenda. but the fact that they would really go this far that to put out a memo that they would participate in undermining the investigation or at least that's what they hop

it's sort of amazing to watch carter's words and carter's view on this become the official position of the republican party. >> exactly. and whether it is just as donald trump has been telling friends a way to get rod rosenstein which seems like less of a good cover story if you're doing your cover story before you go and make that move, but second, you don't have a right not to be wiretapped. you have a right to have courts oversee it. >> of course, this is one of the things that shows -- the bad faith here is remarkable. the entire nunes m.o. is there's great youtube reels of the worst flops in soccer or basketball which went in slow motion, and they throw themselves back. that is the m.o. is this insane flop we're watching in realtime which is that if you have problems with it as you showed incredibly deftly, then you should have reformed the law, a. b, you could release the memo to the court itself which is the entity that granted this in the first place. if you think they screwed up, you should talk to the court. you could release the memo to them. why you are not going to the peo
