President Trump releases memo Credit: Independent

Here is the full and unredacted FISA Memo, released by the House Intelligence Committee today.

The Independent, UK, explains:

“The memo, written House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes’ staff, focuses on a FISA warrant against former Trump campaign aid Carter Page during the 2016 campaign. That warrant was obtained by the Department of Justice in October 2016, and the request for the warrant was reliant at least in part on a dossier compiled by Christopher Steele, which claimed that Russia may have compromising information on Mr Trump. The FBI has noted that the Steele dossier was not the sole piece of evidence used for the warrant.

“Mr Nunes’ memo notes that Mr Steele’s dossier was compiled for the Democratic National Committee and the Hillary Clinton campaign, and that the Department of Justice’s applications for the FISA warrant did not note that funding source.” (1)
