Oh? Prove it was obtained under a false pretense...?Those who have carefully read the Nunes memo will notice that it never says the application to monitor Carter Page was illegal.
That is yet to be determined. It was however obtained under a false pretense. I can't imagine that withholding information in a FISA application is legal.
While you’re at it, demonstrate what the government hoped to gain from Trump by wiretapping someone who was not working for the Trump campaign and who had never met Trump?
It's a coming, it's a coming. Right now it looks like they withheld very important information from the court to falsely get that warrant. You see, to investigate a crime, you need evidence that such a crime possibly could have been committed. Opposition research isn't enough for that, especially when it is paid for by the opponent of the people you are spying on to prove the crime.

The FISA system does not investigate crime.
They gather intelligence. Specifically from foreign sources or their agents and assets.
The warrant on Page came about because he had travelled to Russia that summer and met with several high ranking Russian officials. Some of these meetings were described in the dossier. That is why it was used as corroborating information on the warrant application. Page has since confirmed those meetings happened in his testimony before congress.
Carter Page's testimony is filled with bombshells — and supports key portions of the Steele dossier
And what was illegal about those meetings? Why is he walking around a free man today?
You people on the left have been chasing this Russia ghost for over a year now, and making claims of changing the election. Nothing to prove that. However the person who did have Russian connections and did try to change the election you stick up for because she's a Democrat.
