[PJ] NATIONAL HARBOR, MD ‐ Carter Page, a former foreign policy adviser to Donald Trump during his 2016 presidential election campaign, who was wiretapped by the FBI, spoke on Wednesday at CPAC. After Page had been accused by Democrats of being a traitor to his country for two years, the Mueller investigation "did not establish that Page coordinated with the Russian government in its efforts to interfere with the 2016 presidential election." Page was also exonerated by the Horowitz report, which also found the allegations in the Steele dossier to be false. Even so, Page's life was turned upside down and he has not recovered his reputation or been compensated for being spied on illegally.Please correct me if I am wrong, but I believe Page is referring to US taxpayer dollars.
"That was one of the hardest days for me and my family in March of 2017," he said, "the day [Adam Schiff] was on television reading from this fake dossier." Page described having his phone tapped while he was working with the Trump transition team: "Director Comey was asked about the wiretapping of Trump Tower and my office was right next to Trump Tower and I was in communications with so many of [the Trump team] my phone was being monitored. All of our communications, emails, and my phone."
He's run the numbers. Needs extra dough for
