From just last week, two days before the Helsinki fiasco:

Carter Page, Ph.D. @carterwpage
Moscow agreed to a 1986 spy swap while @AmbJohnBolton was at DOJ.
Is any swap possible now, trading:
-12 Indictees
for
- Intel assets who damaged democracy by injecting @DNC / DOJ Dodgy Dossier lies that led to illegal hacking?
Or at least an info swap?

Why is this significant again?
Because Russia says they'll let Mueller sit in while Russia interviews its own intel officers (ha!), but first they need to hand over former Ambassador Michael McFaul for questioning about argle bargle Browder Hillary blah blah blah.
And of course it was Michael McFaul who Kremlin propagandist Konstantin Rykov giddily blabbed to about the fact that Carter Page's July 2016 speech was nothing more than a cover for him to meet with Russian intelligence officers. He said this in July 2016 while Carter Page was in Russia. This corroborates the Steele Dossier
Yeah, it's beginning to make a lot more sense now....
Damn, I'd give any amount of money that Carter Page is still blabbing with Russian intelligence officers.

(51,055 posts)How did the now mainly confirmed Steele Dossier LEAD to the illegal hacking? They're all insane.

ETA: His twitter feed is replete with attempts to cast the Steele dossier as "dodgy," the FISA warrant as bogus, and the whole thing as a frame up by a Secret Society.
LOL -- I mistyped dossier as dissier.

(108,973 posts)In Carter's warped mind, that is. I have no idea what he's talking about.

(43,160 posts)...a legally obtained warrant based on verified intelligence somehow equals illegal hacking in his mind.
I mean, hes sort of a idiot, so....

(9,426 posts)we could trade 12 gop candidates. McConnell, Pence, Ryan, Rorabacher, tRump and the half dozen or so who visited Russia just recently. Who would miss them? McConnell's "wife" the pit bull could go, too.

(32,613 posts)He must be worth the same as 12 indicted GRU-trained officers. Mueller can give up Page and not miss a beat.
He already has Page's traitorous emails and documents.
Do NOT surrender McFaul, under any circumstances!

-@JoeNBC, you mentioned meddling to @McFaul but forgot to ask about #FISAgate, etc. that his @DNC friends organized. Since he knows many of those involved, he might have some insights.
-@LouiseMensch: On your question, I focus my legal attention here.👆
