Former Trump campaign associate Carter Page filed a $75 million federal lawsuit against the Department of Justice and the FBI in Washinton on Friday.
The lawsuit seeks relief for "multiple violations" of Pages "Constitutional and other legal rights in connection with unlawful surveillance and investigation of him by the United States Government."
Page claims to have been targeted by the FBI because of his work with President Donald Trumps 2016 campaign.
The complaints made in the lawsuit refers to four warrant applications by the FBI to electronically survey Page, which the document calls false and misleading.

(145,168 posts)One of the attorneys in this case is representing Kyle Rittenhouse and this firm is involved in some fun litigation https://www.lawfuel.com/blog/the-65-million-debacle-pierce-bainbridge-meets-american-greed/
What would compel Virage to provide that type of funding to the firm? .....
Indeed, all of the Virage $65 million was provided after the firms original funder Pravati Capital LLC declared a $9.1 million default: a matter of public record. Furthermore, prior to the Virage massive infusion, Pierce Bainbridge had only one trial victory in its history, an August 2018 verdict about mom & pop ice cream sandwiches that netted a $500K verdict, to be divided up three ways litigation funder, Pierce Bainbridge, clients.
This would be the only, and last, Pierce Bainbridge trial victory to date. Stated differently, Virage gave $65 million and the litigation specialized firm did not win a single trial in return.
There are at least three other firms involved incluing a solo practioner, a three person firm and one mid to small size litigation firm
This will be amusing to watch
