The great debate about whether the FBI spied on the Trump campaign continues.
The FBI had received information - ironically, from its sketchy CHS snooping - that "Was inconsistent with, or undercut, the assertions contained in the FISA applications" that the FBI used to argue that probable cause existed to wiretap Page.
Another word for the some of the information from the Steele dossier that the FBI passed on to the court is "Misleading." And the report made it clear that the FBI knew the material was faulty.
It turns out the FBI used what should have been a routine intelligence briefing of the Trump campaign to pursue its investigation.
For the Trump group - a session that included the candidate himself and also FBI target Michael Flynn, a top national security aide - an FBI supervisor from the Crossfire Hurricane team attended to see if Trump's or Flynn's behavior might reveal some evidence in the case.
In short, the FBI, acting under false pretenses, spied on Trump and Flynn in plain sight.
The fact is, the FBI not only spied on the Trump campaign, it did it in the worst way.
