Inspector General Report on Alleged FISA Abuses Likely ‘Damning,’ GOP Lawmaker Says: he upcoming report on the counterintelligence investigation into Russia and President Donald Trump’s campaign will show evidence of wrongdoing leading to a criminal investigation, Rep. John Ratcliffe (R-Texas) speculated on Sunday.
“It doesn’t take 500 pages to tell the inspector general that everything was done properly,” Ratcliffe, who is a member of the House Intelligence Committee, told Fox News.
“The IG report is going to find that there were problems,” he said.
He was referring to Inspector General Michael Horowitz, who has been investigating alleged misconduct regarding the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FSIA) warrants delivered by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. In 2016, the Department of Justice and FBI got warrants in 2016 to monitor Carter Page, a Trump adviser, but it’s not clear if others were monitored.
