Supporters to discredit the investigation. >> how things change. we've been reporting that he was part of the russia probe and all this time, the president and all those around him said he wasn't part of the campaign. the president himself wouldn't be able to pick him out of a room. he had no idea who carter page was, although he did mention him to the washington editorial board. now it fathers white house and republicans are using this fisa warrant on carter page. as an example the fbi was targeting the trump campaign which doesn't really square if before this, he wasn't part of campaign. and...

Jim sciutto laid it out. the insinuation is that the fbi was biased against donald trump and they used democratic opposition research, hid that from the fisa court, and improperly got this warrant to spy on carter page. >> first of all, we've only got threats that the republicans on the committee want to lay out. reality is much richer. a fisa application runs 40, 50, 60 pages. it is very rich and you're very careful. the judge will pick it up and hit you in the head with it if it is not done well. if you don't prove your case. so i read the memo and i came away, i watched in the last hour, th...

Criticism of a single fisa application involving carter page and its renewals that cherry picks information, that doesn't tell the readter whole application. and as the d.o.j. and fbi have said, deeply misleading and factually inaccurate. you can cherry pick any fisa court application and do the same thing. if the committee was seriously interested in oversight, they would have done what we usually do. they would have said, let's bring in the fbi, let's hear what they have to say. if they think something should have been included, you're asking why they didn't include it. but here they refuse ...

Papadopolousling charged as part of the mueller probe. >> george papadopoulos was charged for lying to the fbi and the russia probe and it's interesting because in the last page of this memo, wolf, it makes reference to papadopoulos, that his name was in the fisa application for carter page. in the memo, the argument was made that there was no evidence that carter page and george papadopoulos had talk ed or thee was any sort of cooperation or conspiracy between the two. it does sort of undercut the argument that the dossier was the sort of principle part of the fisa application, that that was ...
