Former Trump adviser Carter Page challenges Senate over his testimony

Published May 5, 2017 8:44pm ET



Former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page is sending signals he may not voluntarily give testimony or documentation to the Senate Intelligence Committee, although he and his lawyers had previously indicated he would likely cooperate.

Page sent a letter to the Senate Intelligence Committee in late April informing them if they wanted to review details about his Russian dealings, the committee members should ask former President Barack Obama, according to CNN. In other parts of the letter, it becomes clear that Page was directly thumbing his nose at the government because he had been the target of a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant in 2016, according to published reports.
