I don't know for sure if that information is true, but if it is it might help to explain why Page is free as a bird while the others had the book thrown at them.
Page was declared to be an Undercover F-I Employee (UCE) as recently as Spring of 2016 working for John Carlin + Preet Bararah. In tape recordings the (real) Russians said they didn’t trust him and thought he was a dope. Then, in October 2016, the F-I / D-J tell FISC that he was a Russian agent. The nation’s highest court(s) and law enforcement + ic agencies have been corrupted.
