It seems Rep. Jim Jordan found himself in a rather sticky situation during an interview with CNN's Chris Cuomo regarding the FISA warrant related to Carter Page. Here's a summary of the incident: Summary of the Interview Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) asserted that the confidential dossier compiled by former MI6 agent Christopher Steele was the primary reason for the FBI's surveillance of Carter Page, a former Trump campaign advisor. When pressed by Cuomo about the specifics of the FISA application, including whether he had actually read it, Jordan admitted that he hadn’t but claimed to have heard about it from someone who had. Cuomo then pointed out that the FISA warrant had been reauthorized multiple times, including once by Rod Rosenstein, who was appointed by Donald Trump as Deputy Attorney General. Key Moments
