2) Some say the insurance policy was the FISA spy warrant used to monitor Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.
This interpretation is too narrow and fails to capture the underlying meaning of the text.

3) The Insurance Policy was the actual process of establishing the Trump–Russia collusion narrative.
4) The Steele dossier, paid for by Clinton’s presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee, served as the foundation for the Russia narrative.
5) The intelligence community, led by CIA Director John Brennan and DNI James Clapper, used the Dossier as a launching pad for creating their Intelligence Community Assessment.
6) Through intelligence community leaks, and in collusion with willing reporters, the narrative that Russia helped Trump win the elections was aggressively pushed throughout 2017.
7) Nunes: A lot of people think the Insurance Policy was getting a FISA Warrant on Carter Page.
"We believe it was actually that the Insurance Policy was specifically what they did that still is redacted that the President has said that he’s going to declassify."

8) I've long thought it probable that media reports of two failed FISA Application attempts made in June and July 2016 were accurate.
9) I’ve also thought those summer 2016 FISA Applications may have targeted George Papadopoulos.

10) This would explain why there is no mention of Papadopoulos anywhere in the Steele Dossier.
Paul Manafort, Carter Page, Michael Cohen, Michael Flynn and Corey Lewandowski are all listed in the Steele Dossier.
But no George Papadopoulos.

11) This would also explain why the FBI didn’t bother to interview Papadopoulos until Jan. 27, 2017.
12) We know Carter Page was targeted in a FISA application.
Page was not an agent of a foreign power—he was simply a convenient FISA warrant target.

13) Page, who has resolutely denied these claims, remains a free man with no charges filed against him.
It’s almost certain that whatever redacted reasoning was used by the FBI in making their assertions will appear obviously false in light of current information.

14) This redacted section may highlight Page’s assistance in the Buryakov Case.
A case in which Page provided assistance to the FBI - in a fashion that may show the FBI as less than forthcoming.

15) It’s entirely possible other sources will be revealed.
Sources such as Stefan Halper, who we know was used by the FBI as a planted spy.

16) Halper’s contact with Page began on July 11, 2016, just four days after Page’s July 2016 Moscow trip.
Halper stayed in contact with Page for the next fourteen months.
Halper’s interactions with Page abruptly ended exactly as the final FISA Warrant on Page expired.

Halper’s interactions with Page abruptly ended exactly as the final FISA Warrant on Page expired.
17) Halper will almost certainly be present in the underlying “FBI reports of interviews prepared in connection with all Carter Page FISA applications.”
18) A document not on the presidential declassification list (to my knowledge) that should be is Carter Page’s March 2, 2016, FBI Interview.
This interview took place when Page was meeting with attorneys at the Southern District of New York on the Buryakov Case.

19) The Steele Dossier will be shown as the primary evidence used throughout the FISA.
It was the “Source” despite its near-exclusive reliance on unverified second- and third-hand accounts.
The “Methods” used to establish the Russia narrative will be made apparent.
