the fbi opened an investigation on Page in August 2016, when he quit team Trump, and when the FBI was told he was a CIA source
In March 2017, Page was approached by agent Steve Somma, who was posing as Steve Holt
They all knew Steele was a politically motivated operator

they used Ohr to get Steele reports in Nov 2016, after the FBI had to fire Steele for leaking to David Corn
Corn was also a Steele memo conduit, he gave them to James Baker, who gave them to Bill Priestap
Glenn Simpson told Ohr that he believed Steeles source, Igor Danchenko, was a Russian spy and Ohr told the FBI this
The fbi never told the FISC about Igor Danchenkos interviews with them, where he basically denied everything
Clinesmith lied about Page in the fisa applications, was part of the 10 hours of interviews of Page by the FBI in March 2017, and told Pages lawyer that Page was not to provide comments to the media about his role in the prosecution, confinement and deportation of Buryakov
After telling Page he couldn’t reveal his role in prosecuting two Russian spies, Clinesmith applied for the 3rd Fisa
during the time frame the 3rd fisa was in effect, Page gave interviews where he alluded to his role in prosecuting two Russian spies. While preparing the application for the 4th fisa, an agent asked Clinesmith if Page was a cia source

this is a problem for Clinesmith
Remember the cia told the fbi Page was a source in August 2017

they should have revealed that to the FISC on ALL the other applications and did not

Clinesmith asked the CIA if Page was a source, and was referred to the August 2016 email
So CLINESMITH said Page had been a sub source, but not a source, and altered the CIA email to reflect that
Rather, clinesmith changed the cia email to read “not a source”, inserting “not”

James Comey was the recipient of he original unaltered email from the cia in August 2016, informing him Page was a CIA source
The New York field office of the fbi had the Steele memos in August 2016

thats pretty early
Comey, McCabe and Strzok were all told in a cia referral in September 2016 that Clinton was going to claim Trump was in cahoots with the Russians to deflect from her email scandal
The entire CFH team and FBI leadership assumed Clinton was paying for the Steele memos
The CFH team and FBI leadership knew by 14 Feb 2017 that Steeles source didn’t support Steeles claims, yet pursued two more FISAs based on them
Steve Somma was at the New York field office, was Halpers handler, and was in charge of the investigation of Page. He wanted the FISAs on Page
Somma knew Page was a CIA source, having been told that in August 2016, yet he hid that fact from the FISC, and others at the fbi and the doj
Somma hid negative information about Steele and positive information about Page
Somma was part of the Danchenko interviews in Feb 2917, but hid what Danchenko said from the FISC
The complaint goes on to describe the leaks regarding the Page fisa warrants to the media by personnel of the fbi
Carter Page blames the leaks directly on Lisa Page and Peter Strzok
And that McCabe and Comey also leaked Carter Page fisa information to the media
