    Given that Carter Page said Paul Ryan would release his FISA memo and given that Paul Ryan, with Devin Nunes, did so, is it fair to assume leaks abt Carter Page's targeting came from GOP?

        This should a much bigger story than it is. How did Carter Page know in October what Paul will do in February? Someone should ask @SpeakerRyan & @DevinNunes this question.

        In terms of how small the dot has to be, because we’re way passed the line, how much further does this whole charade need to go before calls for an independent commission on Trump-Russia are taken more seriously?

        @jeremyscahill Both sides of Carter Page involved in this leak. Russia and the GOP.

        Do you believe the targeting of Carter Page was done properly, ethical?

        Considering Page had been on the FBI's radar from 2014 on, yes. (WSJ is owned by Murdoch, a very good friend of Trump.)https://www.wsj.com/articles/former-trump-aide-carter-page-was-on-u-s-counterintelligence-radar-before-russia-dossier-1517486401 …

        But if it just turns out that Page held views the estab doesn't like ending sanctions, and remember he's not been charged with being a spy and he's not lockedup, I don't think any progressive or civil libertarian can support that usage of FISA

        Too bad it just got a 6 year renewal with less oversight implementation and more power.

        Maybe, I remember Mensch of all people was first to raise FISA. Then reported by Guardian, BBC. Could have been the brits.

        And likely on the day after the final FISA warrant renewal expired. Because you know he could not be trusted to keep his mouth shut.

        Why reason would lead anyone to tell Page that his FISA surveillance info would come out? To assure him he would be protected so he would not cooperate with Mueller?
