Who Was Carter Page?

Writing at Conservative Treehouse, the pseudonymous Sundance reports that it appears Carter Page was an undercover employee of the FBI. As a witness, he was responsible for the guilty plea of one Evgeny Buryakov to charges of working as an agent of the Russian Federation without registering with the Attorney General.

Check out what Sundance alleges:

On October 21st 2016 the FBI claimed to a FISA Court; to gain a “Title I” surveillance warrant; that Carter Page was working on behalf of a foreign government.

Carter Page was an FBI Under-Cover Employee in 2013, and remained the primary FBI witness through May of 2016.

If Carter Page was working as an UCE (FBI undercover employee), responsible for the bust of a high level Russian agent in 2013 -and remained a UCE- throughout the court case UP TO May of 2016, how is it possible that on October 21st 2016 Carter Page is put under a FISA Title 1 surveillance warrant as an alleged Russian agent?

Conclusion: He wasn’t. The DOJ National Security Division and the FBI Counterintelligence Division flat-out LIED.

If I understand his argument, it is that Page was talking to Russians at the behest of the FBI. Using this fact without revealing to the FISA judge their hand in Page’s behavior, they got a warrant to surveil his various communications and those of the people with whom he communicated. Sundance believes they did this because he was talking to Trump campaign people and thus they could surveil them.

Let’s be clear, I have no idea if the above is true. Somebody was an undercover employee of the FBI and played ol’ Evgeny, was it Carter Page? If it was, and the FBI wanted to surveil Page for real, they must have suspected him of being a double agent. If Page was double, why is he unindicted?

Sundance thinks they used his real (undercover) behavior as a ruse to get the warrant. This whole thing looks very hinky. Hat tip to Lucianne.com for the link.
