'It’s only one side’s perspective': Carter Page slams FISA report as 'sloppy' Former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page condemned Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz's investigation on alleged government surveillance abuses ahead of the release of its findings. Leaks last week about the forthcoming report on the FBI's use of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act to wiretap Page, an American citizen who was suspected to be a Russian asset but was never charged, show the DOJ watchdog found errors were made. Ultimately, there was no abuse of power by top officials due to bias against President Trump. Page was interviewed Saturday by CNN's Michael Smerconish, who said the reports indicate "sloppiness" in the Trump-Russia investigation. Page responded by calling Horowitz's inquiry "sloppy." "The keyword that you just said is sloppiness, right? And unfortunately, the way that this inspector general report has been assembled and completed over the last couple of years and particularly over the last few months, is completely sloppy," Page said. "It’s only one side’s perspective." Trump's closest allies have ramped up expectations of the FISA report for months, predicting it will uncover an effort to monitor and undermine Trump's 2016 campaign, particularly with how the FBI relied on an unverified dossier compiled by British ex-spy Christopher Steele to obtain the warrants to tap into Page's devices. During an interview with Fox News on Friday, Trump himself said he has heard Horowitz's report will be "historic" and surmised a "spying" plot against his campaign reached the "highest levels" of government. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/its-only-one-sides-perspective-carter-page-slams-fisa-report-as-sloppy 'It’s only one side’s perspective': Carter Page slams forthcoming FISA report as 'sloppy' https://youtube.com/watch?v=Cb2h2zIoHq4 Carter Page: There's been no real action to address FISA abuse https://youtube.com/watch?v=_eFwYnBi4fc
