Maddow Explains Why The Carter Page FISA Story Is The Most Important Break Yet In The Trump-Russia Scandal


Trump adviser Carter Page being investigated by FBI for being an agent of a foreign government.

On Tuesday evening the Washington Post reported a bombshell story about Trump adviser Carter Page being the subject of an FBI FISA warrant.

Unsurprisingly, Rachel Maddow kicked off her show on Tuesday with an in-depth explanation of why the Carter Page FISA story is the most important break in the Trump-Russia scandal.

Maddow interviewed Adam Entous who is a national security reporter for The Washington Post, about the Post’s bombshell report that former Donald Trump foreign policy adviser Carter Page was the subject of a FISA warrant as a possible agent of a foreign power.

Rachel covered the incredibly high bar that is required to receive a FISA warrant and what that potentially means for the likelihood that the Trump campaign colluded with Russia during the 2016 election.
