      Mike Retweeted Evan McMullin

      The FISA application included lies from a hired gun on Clinton's payroll. If you don't immediately get, in your gut, what's wrong with that, there's no explaining it to you.https://twitter.com/Evan_McMullin/status/958752347592843265 …

      Mike added,

      Evan McMullinVerified account @Evan_McMullin
      The Memo reportedly alleges that the USG improperly obtained a warrant on Carter Page because its application included info from Chris Steele. Well, it would've also included other evidence reviewed by a judge & Page was already a suspected Russian agent, Steele a trusted source.

      Mike: I'm curious. Have you also complained that consultant reports are using in FISA apps targeting Muslims, which is suspected to happen a lot?

      Replying to @emptywheel

      Honestly, it's the first I've heard of it. I can't say I have any expertise in FISA issues or have ever read much about them before this issue came up.

      Replying to @Doranimated

      Oh. Perhaps you should ask people who do have expertise? I've been writing abt FISA since 2005, IDed problems that shut down upstream last year before FISC learned all about it, reported out new abusive 702 practice. And I'm fairly confident you're being made for a fool.

      Replying to @emptywheel

      I'd be very curious to learn more about 702, but I'm confident I'm not being played for a fool. I have tracked this issue from the political level from the beginning. To me, it's first & foremost a political scandal and only secondarily a matter of intel abuse.

      Oh, but so have I tracked the politics. I'm the single biggest dossier skeptic on the left. And who said I was talking 702? You betray your lack of awareness there... You're being played for a fool.

      In any case, why would you trust Nunes, when he just gave an agency he claims to be abusive more authority? That ... doesn't make any sense at all.

          Maybe the “FISA Abuses” were against the law

          I’m curious about what you mean when you say you’re a dossier sceptic. Isn’t it just a series of reports from Steele’s trusted sources in Russia? I thought it was a collection of rumors, some of which have turned out to be true.
