#1 Indeed, he was working as an asset for the CIA for years. While it was falsely reported that Page met with three suspicious individuals there, he had no contact with two of those individuals. More importantly, Page did the right thing and told American officials about being contacted by the third person, because he felt they should know.
Emphasis added.

Of course he did "the right thing." That was his JOB! Retention of a security clearance demands this type of reporting. How does one pass a poly withholding foreign contact information ?

Someone, please tell me, how do these things happen? Oh WAIT !

#2 Shitshow, Part 220.

American asset is libelled and slandered as a Russian asset.
The (perpetual) campaign operation that enlisted foreign spies to throw an election with dirty tricks claims the other side was guilty of same.

We are ruled by mendacious morons.

#3 Do we evidence for Page holding a security clearance? Maybe we should ask the Chinese since they have all the files. Our authorities appear confused on this matter and Page acts confused.
