Of course the FBI spied on the Trump campaign
The great debate about whether the FBI spied on the Trump campaign continues. The question is why there is still any argument. The newly released report

The FBI didn’t commit ‘errors and omissions.’ It abused its power - Washington Examiner
The FBI sought a warrant to wiretap a U.S. citizen and, in effect, a U.S. presidential campaign, based on a shoddy Democrat-funded pile of conspiracy theories known as the Steele dossier. The dossier's allegations against then-candidate Donald Trump were based on "multiple layers of hearsay upon...www.washingtonexaminer.com

Two of the four Carter Page FISA warrants are now deemed invalid. The other two are still under review. Stay tuned...
I’m on MSNBC for the most complete trial coverage I can find.Are you watching FOX again? That's all they talk about and brief mentions on the trial- go figure.
literally no one cares, lardassTwo of the four Carter Page FISA warrants are now deemed invalid. The other two are still under review. Stay tuned...
Did you get tired of all of the "special guests" FOX was having talk over the House Managers?I’m on MSNBC for the most complete trial coverage I can find.
Yes, I did. I just want the proceedings without interruption.Did you get tired of all of the "special guests" FOX was having talk over the House Managers?
Correct, the two that were done after Trump's team took over the FBI, funny how it was then that a lawyer (who thanks to Republican legislation in the 80's, just happens to not be under the investigative authority of a Inspector General (which makes sense why Barr wanted them to investigate now)) changed something on the applications and resubmitted them.Two of the four Carter Page FISA warrants are now deemed invalid.

And if the other two are found to be invalid? I'm pretty sure the Trump admin had nothing to do with running FISA applications on themselves.Correct, the two that were done after Trump's team took over the FBI, funny how it was then that a lawyer (who thanks to Republican legislation in the 80's, just happens to not be under the investigative authority of a Inspector General (which makes sense why Barr wanted them to investigate now)) changed something on the applications and resubmitted them.
Meaning Trump's administration was the one abusing the FISA applications.
Convenient.
Actually, the FBI did the right thing when it ensured Trump's campaign's meetings with Russian agents were spied on. Your criminal gang known as Republican party is doing what criminals do when they are trying to beat the rap.And if the other two are found to be invalid? I'm pretty sure the Trump admin had nothing to do with running FISA applications on themselves.
The IG report stated that the investigation was opened properly, the first two FISA warrants were evaluated along with the final two on Carter Page, and was found that in the final two (under Trump's DOJ) that they were improperly altered when they were filed by a lawyer.And if the other two are found to be invalid?

I think the real point is that Trump supporters are very easy to fool. Right, @Bugeye?The IG report stated that the investigation was opened properly, the first two FISA warrants were evaluated along with the final two on Carter Page, and was found that in the final two (under Trump's DOJ) that they were improperly altered when they were filed by a lawyer.
The point? If Trump was trying to discredit the FBI, this gives him the ability to troll the FISA process and point to the misdeeds of them, creating shade for the fact that it was properly done until his administration got their hands on it, which that last part gets conveniently left out of the discussion.
See?Russia, Russia, Russia we heard for 3 years. LOL Who bought into that nonsense?
