Carter Page sues the Democratic National Committee
American Thinker ^ | 10/16/2018 | Monica Showalter

Carter Page, the energy consultant and Trump advisor, is finally doing what needs to be done: He's suing the Democratic National Committee.

According to Fox News:

Former Trump campaign official Carter Page announced on Monday a defamation lawsuit against the Democratic National Committee (DNC) over the salacious dossier that claims he has ties to Russia.

Page is also suing Perkins Coie and its partners, a law firm that represented Hillary Clinton’s campaign and hired Fusion GPS, an opposition research firm that hired former British spy Christopher Steele who compiled the unverified dossier concerning Trump, his associates, and Russia.

Page told Fox News’ “Hannity” on Monday that his lawsuit goes “beyond any damages or any financial aspects.”

Page, at it happens, was the linchpin that opened the gate to the FISA warrant that enabled the Obama administration to spy on Trump campaign officials. So long as Carter Page, with his business ties to Russia was in it, all of the machinery of government surveillance power was possible to crank into gear in the great Democratic bid to prove Russian collusion to steal the election from Hillary Clinton, supposedly between Donald Trump and his Kremlin masters.

And amazingly, the FBI found nothing on the man, nothing, despite 24/7 surveillance on every last thing he did. They also had intelligence reports suggesting that the Russians considered Page 'an idiot,' so there was plenty of reason to think the dossier was concocted out of thin air to advance Democratic political purposes. As Eli Lake wrote in his essay called 'We Should Care About What Happened to Carter Page,' it is a bigger issue than it looks because Fourth Amendment protections were violated, as Sean Hannity notes, and that can affect all of us:

I hope this is the beginning of a growing snowball rolling downhill to justice. Payback time approaches.

It’s been two+ years, no?
I would hope that if there is a snowball, this is adding some real snowpack to it, and not just the beginning.

Aren’t these court cases where some real discovery type of stuff gets to happen?

You would think that DNC would want to settle in a big way. Now I don’t know if Perkins Coie could absorb the hit.

The Laptop the F_I has with the supposed 650k of Hillary’s emails that Huma Huma Huma stored in an insurance policy folder.

No doubt there are updates on the Operation against Page.

Carter Page ought to think about finding an abandoned mine shaft in Alaska and moving to it and communicating by handwritten notes carried and delivered by pidgeon.

My theory has always been that the MOB owns the Clintons and has for decades. All during that time they demanded a certain % of all the tens of millions the Clintons steal from the government or places like Haiti or campaign funds or whatever.

Whenever some individual or official threatens that money machine, the MOB kills them. Pretty simple really!

Another way of putting it is “The Clintons are the Mob”.
