An article today about Carter Page suing the DOJ in an effort to review the inspector general report on the FISA manipulation prior to publication provides an opportunity to review the insignificance of Carter Page.
Carter Page was a means to an end; the end goal was to get the Steele Dossier into the FBI as an official investigative work product.
In essence the FISA application merged two fundamentally different elements: The Steele Dossier; and The CIA operation against Papadopoulos.
The Dossier frames a narrative that says Russia was interfering in U.S. politics and the named characters within it, Manafort, Flynn, Page and Trump were participants.
To give the Dossier Intelligence Community teeth so it can grip the narrative, the dossier was used as FISA evidence.
It is my my belief, bolstered by reporting, there were preceding FISA applications containing material from the dossier rejected by the FISA court.
The FBI team and supportive DOJ-NSD officials who were behind the Carter Page FISA application were successful in bringing the dossier to legitimacy.
