It\u2019s easy for all sides to read too much into the news tat FBI reportedly obtained a warrant to surveil former Trump foreign policy adviser Carter Page. Those convinced of Trump\u2019s Russia ties may see validation, and proof of a grander conspiracy. Others may see this lending credence to Trump\u2019s allegations that the Obama administration ordered illegal, politically motivated surveillance in the heat of last years\u2019s presidential campaign. In truth, it does neither.
