Michael Medved makes a HUGE point on the reaction to Republican memo…

by The Right Scoop

Michael Medved made an very interesting point that I think many are overlooking in their reaction to the memo and it centers on when Carter Page resigned:

Él Soopy sent me this so I looked into it, and even Wikipedia points out that the FISA warrant was issued after Page was gone from the campaign:

Shortly after Page resigned from the Trump campaign, the Federal Bureau of Investigation obtained a warrant from the US Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court to surveil Page’s communications.[25] To issue the warrant, a federal judge concluded there was probable cause to believe that Page was a foreign agent knowingly engaging in clandestine intelligence for the Russian government. Page was the only American who was directly targeted with a FISA warrant in 2016 as part of the Russia probe. The 90-day warrant was repeatedly renewed.

Medved doesn’t dismiss the memo out of hand. He certainly agrees that it’s still damning that the FBI used a political document to go after an American citizen instead of national security:

He also feels that Nunes is damaging Trump more by putting this out there now when we should still be talking about the SOTU:
