Possible proof that ABC news and the NYTimes received a copy of the unredacted FISA in April of 2017 (and confirmation of the theory that Wolfe texted the entire unredacted FISA):

In this interview with George Papadapoulos he tells Michael Tracey that he was approached by ABC and the New York Times on April 11th or 12th 2017 telling him that he was mentioned in a FISA. This was referencing his lobbying work in Israel. Now Papadapoulos is convinced there is another FISA warrant specifically targeting him but I think he is wrong. Here’s why:
-
The Nunes memo states that Papadapoulos is in all 4 Carter Page FISA warrants and renewals.
-
The Papadapoulos information is fully redacted in the FISA release.
-
The Papadapoulos/Israel connection was included in the Mueller report.
-
What are the chances that there exists an entirely separate FISA on Papadapoulos that reporters have had access to for which there is nothing that has been made public? The date is the key here. April 12th 2017 is the day WaPo went to print with the Carter Page FISA confirmation article.
Putting this together either ABC and the NYTimes have access to an entire separate FISA warrant for which they have never revealed exists or they had access to the unredacted Carter Page FISA. Either one is incredibly damning but the second option is much more likely. I really don’t understand how it’s not a bigger deal that Pap was approached by reporters who knew information included in a FISA warrant that has so far remained unreported publicly.
