Memo raises questions about Trump related FBI surveillance
The memo released Friday by Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee questions whether the FBI acted with a political vendetta against President Trump. It probes if Democratic opposition research was the main evidence to obtain a FISC warrant to monitor Carter Page and whether the FBI knew of political aims when applying. The piece notes Steele, paid by DNC funds, produced unverified claims and mentions McCabe’s testimony, while acknowledging the Journal’s note of possible earlier Page concerns and possible corroboration of material facts. It frames ongoing uncertainty about political motive versus justifiable law enforcement procedures.
