If this guy is such a heavyweight, how come he is confusing Carter Page with Christoper Steele? [About halfway through]

The editing on some of these web articles is atrocious.

Thought the same thing. Seemed weird that he would indicate that the FBI took Page at his word when he meant Steele.

don’t want to lose anyone in the weeds here but what the head of the FBI testified to before the Senate was that he basically took Carter Page at his word and ignored all of the other bias that was swirling around Page which would normally have made him someone clearly not worthy to be used as justification for making a FISA warrant request. There is really only one credible explanation for this – Carter Page was hired to create something that was used as justification to provide legal cover for what was a highly illegal surveillance program against the opposition candidate of a sitting President of the United States. James Comey attempted to explain this all away by basically saying, “We believed Carter Page because Carter Page assured us he was believable.” And please don’t forget that through all of this, James Comey and the other high-ranking FBI officials involved (some who still remain at the FBI) neglected to inform the FISA Court of the Clinton campaign’s direct involvement in the Trump Dossier, Fusion GPS, etc. (The Clinton campaign was Fusion GPS’s most important client at the time.)

Yep, Carter Page should be Christopher Steele in this entire paragraph. I stopped reading at this point.

Was it a mistake? It reads to me like Page was the mole. It’s rumored that he was an FBI “employee”. Him being in Trump’s circle, provided the deep state all the cover they needed to surveil.

Because this is a Russian site. Apparently some people are still fooled by it.
