Consistent with the politically motivated unmasking standards seen in the Obama Administration which have recently been exposed, my personal identity and earlier assistance of federal authorities in the 2015 case of U.S.A. v. BURYAKOV, SPORYSHEV and PODOBNYY was framed in an easily identifiable way that amplified the reputational damage against me.

This is an extraordinarily conservative organization, so, the notion that there's a deep state conspiracy about anything is laughable.

The particulars of which House Democrats, which Republicans, I wouldn't think would be important to the court, they'd want to be aware of the general bias, and that's my reaction.

There are not many things I would bet my life on. I would bet my life that Robert Mueller will do things the right way, the way we would all want, whether we're Republicans or House Democrats, the way Americans should want.

The FBI, in late July, opened counterintelligence investigations of four Americans to see if they were working in any way with the Russians to influence our elections.

I am not. I admire the heck out of the man, but I don't know his phone number, I've never been to his house, I don't know his children's names, i think I had a meal once alone with him in a restaurant. I like him. I am not a -- I'm an associate of his who admires him greatly. We're not friends in any social sense.

No, I've never been an agent of a foreign power by any stretch of the imagination, i may have, back in the G20 when they were getting ready to do that in St. Petersburg, I might have participated in a few meetings that a lot of people -- including people from the Obama administration -- were sitting on, and Geneva, Paris, et cetera, but I've never been anywhere near what's being described here.

You talk about misleading the courts, it's just so misleading. by Carter Page

You talk about misleading the courts, it's just so misleading.

There are certain questions I have, frankly speaking, just reading that report ... that makes me wonder whether this was really just a political stunt, we've seen that looking back at the history of political intelligence operations going back many decades.

Unless you tell me, 'Hell yes! That would be bothersome,' which I think is the simple answer, I'm going to assume that Carter Page, frankly, doesn't care if there was a black hand in the election of Donald Trump, i care about the negative hands that were all over this thing.

If there was any meddling in the election, all of the false narratives that has been out there is the ultimate meddling.

I look forward to the Privacy Act of 1974 lawsuit that I plan to file in response to the civil rights violations by Obama administration appointees The FBI last year, the discovery process will be of great value to the United States, as our nation hears testimony from United States under oath, and we receive disclosure of the documents which show what exactly was done in 2016.

We'll see what comes out in this FISA transcript. by Carter Page

I have nothing to say about any ongoing investigations. by Carter Page

I have no comment. by Carter Page

I have no comment.

There have been various reports [about FISA documents and FBI surveillance of him], but I was so happy to hear that further confirmation is now being revealed. It shows how low the Clinton/Obama regime went to destroy our democracy and suppress dissidents who did not fully support their failed foreign policy. It will be interesting to see what comes out when the unjustified basis for those FISA requests are more fully disclosed over time, including potentially the Dodgy Dossier -- a document that clearly is false evidence, which could represent yet another potential crime.

I don't think I've ever met him. And he actually said he was a very low-level member of I think a committee for a short period of time. I don't think I ever met him. Now, it's possible that I walked into a room and he was sitting there, but I don't think I ever met him.

Liars and leakers in Washington and more broadly the political class in United States actually had a much more negative impact, all of the discussions about the influence that the Russian government had on the U.S. election would actually pale in comparison to the much heavier influence that the U.S. government actually had in trying to hurt then-candidate Trump. That negative impact based on these complete lies has continued to put a dark shadow over United States in general.

And so out of respect and out of doing what's best for the campaign, I thought it's best if I step aside and take a leave of absence at that at that point.

It was really about that concept of mutual respect and the way various countries including Russia, China and United States, can work together for having a more constructive relationship primarily with the states of central Asia, such as Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan.

I was always very cautious. The only time, and you're the first person in the media that I'm saying this very directly to -- I said, ‘ Hello, ’ to him in passing, handed him my business card and never got a business card from him, as I did for many ambassadors in Cleveland during the Republican National Convention.
