Again, and again, and again.
That is what Carter Page, former policy adviser to the con artist, has said he will do to not turn over the documents requested by the Senate committee investigating the con artist's collusion with Russia during the presidential campaign.
According to him, what the committee has asked is "beyond the charter" of the inquiry. Which is an interesting distinction to make since the committee has been tasked with investigating any and all links, communications and collusive acts between the con artist and members of his campaign or staff.
What makes Carter's claim more interesting is he wants to avoid a perjury trap. TThe FBI obtained a warrant to monitor Page on suspicions he knowingly engaged in clandestine intelligence activities on behalf of Moscow, according to an April report from The Washington Post. Page has requested records of these communication intercepts be released
Why is this interesting? If one wants to avoid committing perjury then all one has to do is tell the truth. Apparently in Page's world telling the truth is not an option.
In May, Senate intelligence chairman Richard Burr told CNN that Page could face subpoenas if he does not cooperate, warning that the investigation was not "100% voluntary."
