Still reading through it. Trump and the Republicans still in favor of full transparency? Hard to tell looking at all these blacked out parts.
Let's hear your take big boy.

Perhaps you should familiarize yourself with the redaction process.Originally Posted by bravesnumberone
Carter Page is small potatoes...though the amateur psychologist in me finds him interesting...the guy did get a spot at the Naval Academy and apparently did well there...a real puzzler
"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."
I guess the pundits who formulate your opinions are off today.
I'm at a loss to remember any "hot takes" you've had.
I know what it is. Seems they followed it on one of two tries. I was still told they favored full transparency.
I'll take that as a compliment.
I'll rephrase: I'm at a loss to remember any original takes you've had that weren't informed by conservative talking heads.
Your parroting skills are truly next level.
Anyone know how to convert this to a word document so I can cut and paste the relevant passages?
"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."
Let's go ahead and hear your original analysis.
I'll be your Gates any day, Pavel.

"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."
It's a bunch of [redacted] and that's not really [redacted] and Chris Hayes is [redacted]
top of p 3 seems to indicate that before the FBI counterintelligence team received Steele's dossier (mid September) it had already opened an investigation into more than one person connected to the Trump campaign. One is Carter Page. The other(s) are redacted.
"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."
Here's mine: Collusion! Between The Democrats. And the FBI. Redacted...........
.........
The four judges who approved the FISA warrants against Page were all Republican appointees. Undoubtedly Never Trump Deep Staters. Good for them.
"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."
One was a coffee boy. The other went on Mcdonalds runs.
An interesting claim is made on p 4. After discussing the claim in the Steele dossier that the Russians mentioned kompromat on Clinton in their conversations with Page, it is noted that "this closely tracked" what they were saying to Papadopoulos.
In subsequent renewals, the DoJ provided independent corroboration of Steele's findings. What comes next is heavily redacted so it is impossible to tell which of Steele's findings this refers to.
"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."
So kompromat on Clinton offered to Page and Papadopoulos.
At some point, however, the Russians made the judgment that they would release this themselves (via Wikileaks) rather than share it with the campaign. Of course we know the reason why. The patriotic Trump campaign people told them this would be illegal interference in the American political system and that they could not accept it and would be reporting all this to the FBI.
For the sake of clarity: the above paragraph is not in the memo.
"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."
