" they should be looking at the judges who signed off on this stuff,"


We can do that, comrade. Turns out none of them are Russian.


Judges Who Approved Carter Page FISA Warrants Were All Nominated by GOP Presidents

Former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page has blasted the process that led to surveillance of him as a “joke,” but lest one think that everyone involved was playing partisan politics, all of the judges who signed off on FISA warrants for Page were nominated to become federal judges by Republican presidents. Not only that, they were then and appointed to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court by a conservative.

George W. Bush nominated Rosemary Collyerto D.C. federal court, and Michael Mosman to the District of Oregon. Ann Conway was a George H.W. Bush pick to the Middle District of Florida. Ronald Reagan tapped Raymond J. Dearie to take a seat in the Eastern District of New York. FISA court judges are appointed by the Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court, and the conservative Roberts named all of them to those position. Roberts was nominated to the Supreme Court by President George W. Bush.
