Trump pointed to a report from the conservative group Judicial Watch that said the court overseeing Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) requests held no hearings on the applications targeting Page.

In a series of tweets, Trump accused the FBI and broader Justice Department of being "completely out to lunch" when it came to fighting corruption and supposed "deep state" elements within the government.

" 'It is astonishing that the FISA courts couldn’t hold hearings on Spy Warrants targeting Donald Trump. It isn’t about Carter Page, it’s about the Trump Campaign. You’ve got corruption at the DOJ & FBI,' " Trump wrote on Twitter, quoting Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton.

" 'The leadership of the DOJ & FBI are completely out to lunch in terms of exposing and holding those accountable who are responsible for that corruption,' ” he added.

Trump's comments came a day after Judicial Watch published its report, which claimed that Freedom of Information Act requests sent to the Justice Department revealed this week that FISA courts approved a 2016 warrant to spy on Page without holding hearings beforehand to review the government's evidence.

Trump has frequently and inaccurately accused federal investigators of launching a probe into his campaign based solely on an unverified dossier of claims relating to Trump's alleged ties to Russia.

Last year, the president also shocked Washington by accusing former President Obama, without evidence, of wiretapping Trump Tower ahead of the 2016 election.
