It was amazing to watch the democrat press go into melt down over Trump's helsinki press conference with putin...it was deranged and insane....and now we know why. They obviously knew that the FISA warrants were going to be released and they needed something to diminish the impact that the Steele dossier, created and paid for by hilary was the primary source for the application to federal judges for the FISA warrant..... lying to a federal judge should have seveal people in handcuffs, and the judges who signed off on the warrants impeached and removed from the bench....
Hence, the Helsinki insanity last week.
This is more of a look at the scandal that has now been confirmed by this document dump...

Here are 10 preliminary points that need to be understood in evaluating this fragmentary peek at the guts of the scandal.
One:
You can tell that the Department of Justice wants to avoid public scrutiny by the timing of its release. Nobody seeking the public’s attention releases anything on a Saturday night. Scott Johnson of Powerline pithily sums up the maneuver:
---------
Two:
The FISA warrant relies on the discredited Steele dossier almost entirely. It is the first evidence cited and forms the bulk of the evidence. Steele is identified throughout as “Source #1”
Four:
As John Hinderaker notes, the document asserts that Page was a witting agent of Russians, yet he has not been charged with anything.
Moreover, via publicly available documents, Sundance of Conservative Tree House points out that Carter Page was employed as an “under cover employee” by the FBI in indicting and obtaining a guilty plea from a genuine Russian spy. Yet somehow, he is now a spy himself?
Five:
Surveilling Page is a classic “camel’s nose under the tent maneuver,” meaning that other people of much greater interest to people spying on a rival campaign could also be targeted. The warrants use the expression “incidentally acquire foreign intelligence information as defined by other subsections of 50 U.S.C. 1801(e)" no fewer than 8 times.
