Inspector General Michael Horowitz told a Senate Judiciary hearing that surveillance without a legal foundation is “illegal surveillance.”

His comment came after he accused top officials in the FBI of mishandling a flawed effort via a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) court to get authority to surveil Carter Page, an American foreign policy adviser who worked on President Donald Trump’s election effort.

  2. .….. and any evidence gathered in an illegal investigation is inadmisable in court. so Carter Page and Michael Flynn are owed an appeal and over turned verdict. Rodger Stone's charges should be dropped. and the Trump impeachment is over before it begins.
