"In 2013, Page got on the radar of FBI counterintelligence thanks to his connections to a ring of New York-based operatives of Russia's Foreign Intelligence Service or SVR. Those three spiestwo who were posing as Russian diplomats and a third Illegal who was masquerading as a businessmanwere gathering intelligence on Wall Street until they were exposed in January 2015. The two Legals fled the country prior to their arrest while the SVR Illegal, Evgeny Buryakov, was taken into custody. Buryakov admitted he was a spy and was sent back to Russia a little over two years later.
Carter Page was an operational target of that SVR ring. As court documents reveal, Page wanted to be a player and made himself available for recruitment by the Russian spies. The SVR sensed that he was a poseurone of the Russians called Page "an idiot"yet they maintained operational contacts with him. The FBI talked to Page to ascertain his agenda; he was assessed as a less-than-loyal American, based on his clandestine links to the SVR.
It's no surprise then, that when Page popped up in the Trump campaign in 2016, the FBI thought he merited another look....Indeed, Nunes added fuel to the fire by stating yesterday on Fox News, "The only area that I am familiar with that we left out would be the history of Carter Page… I don't believe somebody like Mr. Page should be a target of the FBI." It seems the HPSCI chair has discovered a Constitutionally-protected right to work clandestinely with a hostile foreign intelligence service against the United States, a right that has never been detected by any actual law experts. To make matters worse, Nunes also admitted that he never actually read the FISA warrant applications that form the cornerstone of his diatribe against the FBI."
