Justice Department Releases Carter Page FISA Documents

Summary from the AllSides News Team

The Department of Justice on Saturday released a previously top-secret, heavily redacted set of documents related to the wiretapping of Carter Page in 2016. Page was a Trump campaign adviser at that time, and his surveillance has since become a controversial topic, with both the Democratic and Republican Intelligence Committee memos being released earlier this year. President Trump has reacted on Twitter, saying the documents "confirm with little doubt that the Department of 'Justice' and FBI misled the courts."
