GOP Sen Burr: ‘Great Justification’ for FISA Warrant on Carter Page

Tuesday when asked by reporters, Senate Intelligence Committee chairman Sen. Richard Burr (R-NC) said there was “great justification” for the approval of a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant on former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.

Burr said, “Listen, I’ve said before there are things that should never find their way in the public domain. FISA applications are one of those. I think it’s an awful precedent. If the American people learned anything from its release, it was that there was great justification of the courts as to why the FISA application was approved.”
