Nunes Seeks Transcripts of FISA Hearing on Carter Page Warrant

I'm sure this'll be another case where our Firefighter Media says "Don't you dare demand information from the government!!!"

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif., is seeking transcripts from a top secret national security court regarding the FBI and Justice Department's application for a surveillance warrant for a Trump campaign aide, according to a congressional letter obtained by Fox News.

Writing to Rosemary M. Collyer, the presiding judge at the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, Nunes asked for transcripts of "any relevant FISC hearings associated with the initial FISA application or subsequent renewals related to electronic surveillance of Carter Page."

Meanwhile, Nunes says he'll soon be releasing a second memo -- this one about the State Department's complicity in these abuses.

Nunes's next memo, meanwhile, will focus on alleged abuses at the Department of State and a second Trump-Russia dossier compiled by Cody Shearer, a controversial political activist with close ties to the Clinton family, according to a Republican familiar with the details.

Why would Sheaer try to foist this fiction on the State Department instead of sending it straight to the FBI?

Indeed, why didn't Hillary Clinton just pass it to the FBI herself? After all, she paid for it.

All of this walking in circles and crabwise movement indicates deception -- if you have nothing to hide, you just do things in the most direct and simple way possible.

Here everyone is attempting to feed these documents to flunkies in the State Department to get passed to the FBI.

It's almost as if Hillary Clinton, and Shearer, and Blumenthal, and Steele, and Fusion, are all trying to hide their hands from the FBI here.
