Not totally shocking but here is the news: FBI obtained FISA warrant to monitor former Trump adviser Carter Page
"The FBI obtained a secret court order last summer to monitor the communications of an adviser to presidential candidate Donald Trump, part of an investigation into possible links between Russia and the campaign, law enforcement and other U.S. officials said.
The FBI and the Justice Department obtained the warrant targeting Carter Page’s communications after convincing a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court judge that there was probable cause to believe Page was acting as an agent of a foreign power, in this case Russia, according to the officials." and so on.
Not totally shocking someone who calls Russia daily gets tapped.
The warranty was probably legal. I'm a small government/anti Patriot Act type though so I dunno.
I guess the people who can really complain about this are Trump supporters who are against the Patriot Act.
