HE'S DONE IT TRUMP DROPS NUKE ON FBI – LET THE RIOTS BEGIN!
This is the most gross abuse of power I've ever heard about.There literally is no level
the left won't stoop to, in attempt to gain power these days.
I hope people go to prison for this.
If this was a normal American citizen doing this..they would be in prison for life.
From The Daily Wire:
The FBI, under the guidance of then-director James Comey, used more than one spy in its
investigation into former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page, the government disclosed in a
court filing on Friday.

"The FBI has protected information that would identify the identities of other confidential
sources who provided information or intelligence to the FBI" as well as "information provided
by those sources," wrote David M. Hardy, the head of the FBI's Record/Information
Dissemination Section.
The filing by Hardy and the Department of Justice came in response to a Freedom of Information
Act lawsuit to gain access to four of the FBI's applications for Foreign Intelligence
Surveillance Act (FISA) warrants against Page.
While the applications were released June 20, they were heavily redacted, and "USA
Today reporter Brad Heath has sued for full copies of the documents," The Daily Caller
reports.
The filing says the "confidential sources" deployed by the FBI were in addition to Christopher
Steele, a former British spy who reportedly authored a dossier on then-candidate Donald
Trump.
That dossier was used in order to obtain the FISA warrants, which give the FBI wide latitude
in an investigation, including the power to wiretap.
"This includes nonpublic information about and provided by Christopher Steele, as well
as information about and provided by other confidential sources, all of whom were provided
express assurances of confidentiality," Hardy wrote.
Steele was hired by his business associate, Glenn Simpson of Fusion GPS, which had been
paid by Perkins Coie, the law firm retained by the Democratic National Committee and the
Hillary Clinton campaign.
Most of the Steele dossier had to do with Trump and onetime Trump campaign manager Paul
Manafort, but none of that material appears in the FISA applications.
Of particular note are a couple footnotes in the third FISA renewal application, The
Daily Wire reported in July.
One footnote mentions that Steele was paid by the FBI for his information, but "suspended
its relationship" with Steele after it learned he had disclosed information to the media.
"Subsequently, the FBI closed [Steele] as an FBI source," according to the documents.
Yet the FBI determined Steele's information to be reliable because his previous reporting
had been "corroborated and used in criminal proceedings," according to the application.
The FBI states in this footnote that the "incident that led the FBI to terminate its relationship
with [Steele] occurred after [Steele] provided the reporting
that
is described herein."
