Carter Pager, a staffer on then-candidate Donald Trump’s fledgling presidential campaign is suing the Democratic National Committee and law firm Perkins Cole for defamation over their role in disseminating the infamous Trump dossier.
Breitbart reports:
In an interview with Fox News channel host Sean Hannity Monday evening, Page explains why he is taking legal action against those who helped fund the research opposition project against then-candidate Trump.
Here’s a partial transcript of the interview:
HANNITY: I’ve got to imagine here, you’re going to be a really wealthy guy because what they did to you. All your Fourth Amendment protections were stomped on. This isn’t political even in any way, Carter.
PAGE: Sean, it goes beyond any damages or any financial aspects. There have just been so many lies as you’re alluding to. You look at the damage it did to our Democratic systems and our institutions of government back in 2016. I’m just trying to get some justice in terms of getting some disclosure. If you look at some of the prior dodgy dossier cases like Mr. Gubarev. He’s the one who got some of the biggest information out there that the Senate Judiciary Committee and House Intelligence Committee have been basing a lot of things on, in terms of there investigation.
HANNITY: You also helped your government. You would debrief after traveling abroad, freely with the intelligence community, the FBI, CIA, and they haven’t indicted you.
