Multiple Trump campaign officials were the subjects of Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act investigations, a Democratic lawmaker said in a closed-door hearing late last year.
If what Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, says is true, the scope of the FBI's FISA efforts for its counterintelligence investigation into President Trump's 2016 campaign and its ties to Russia span far wider than previously known. So far, it is only confirmed that the FBI obtained FISA warrants targeting onetime Trump campaign aide Carter Page.
quote:
I want to talk about the spring, summer, and autumn of 2016. Carter Page, at the time, was suspected of being a Russian asset; George Papadopoulos had told the Australian ambassador that Russians had Hillary [Clinton] emails; Paul Manafort had been named Trump campaign manager; Michael Flynn was Trump's chief national security adviser and foreign policy adviser and, just yesterday, had a continuance in his sentencing," Jackson Lee said. "One thing that all of these persons had in common was that each was the subject of a FISA Court investigation, which we now know, and all were directly connected to Trump. As attorney general, you had the authority to oversee FISA application process. Is that correct?"
quote:
Lynch replied "yes," after which Justice Department lawyer Bradley Weinsheimer cut in to say Jackson Lee's question "potentially gets into possibly classified information and also equities in an ongoing investigation
quote:
In an interview Friday, former FBI general counsel James Baker, who claims to have taken a leading role in overseeing the Page FISA warrant applications, was asked point-blank if the bureau used an unverified dossier to surveil anyone else. Claiming to be unfamiliar with what the government has revealed, Baker opted not to confirm nor deny it.
"I don't think I should comment on that. I don't know what else the government has confirmed," Baker said on MSNBC. "I don't want to confirm or deny anything about other potential FISA applications."

They were spying on the entire Tump campaign and got caught by Adm. Rogers. Everything from that point on was to either A. Coverup that fact or B. Take down Trump to keep from getting thrown in prison.

It’s sad that Treason won’t be an applicable charge because these actions warrant the death penalty. Punishment needs to be severe.

They tapped his wires because he had a R behind his name and he was running for president.
These Soviet style political tactics by Obama would make Putin proud.

Wouldn't there naturally be more than one FISA warrant? I always assumed they had several.

Probably on everyone from Page to the door man at the Trump Towers.

Jackson-Lee is a moron, I wouldn’t take anything she says good or bad as gospel.

There were 4 on Carter Page but we still don't know if there were FISA warrants on 4 different individuals
Bombshell if true

Flynn and manafort seem safe bets? Tbh it would be warranted

When are you going to admit the Obama amin abused the FISA process?

Reminds me of that old poem . . . .
Sheila Jackson Lee ---
She's smarter than a rock,
But dumber than a tree.

It was reported in the MSM two years ago that Manafort was under FISA surveillance both before and after he joined Trump's campaign. I wouldn't be surprised if they had one for PapaD as well. I would be surprised if they had one for Flynn. If they did that would be pretty huge.

I hope they all are perp walked.

Papa D has been saying forever he thinks he was subject of a warrant. Flynn has been speculated to be a FISA subject too.

In his letter, Nunes says it is "still a mystery how the FBI knew to ask Papadopoulos specifically about Hillary Clinton’s emails" if the bureau had not spoken with Mifsud.
