Perhaps most damning to FBI credibility, investigators found that Peter Strzok, who served as a lead investigator on both the Trump-Russia and Clinton email investigations, vowed he would “stop” Trump from becoming president in an August 2016 text message to his mistress, FBI lawyer Lisa Page. “[Trump’s] not ever going to become president, right? Right?!” Page wrote to Strzok. “No. No he won’t. We’ll stop it,” Strzok responded. Strzok said the message “was intended to reassure Page that Trump would not be elected, not to suggest that he would do something to impact the investigation,” according to the report.Of course, everyone knows Strzok and Page were doing this. What we need to dig in and see further is the extent to which others in the FBI were complicit in the effort. For example, what exactly was the “insurance policy” Strzok and Page discussed with “Andy” – presumably Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, who has since been fired for unauthorized media leaks? Also, if there was no bias in the Hillary investigation, why were Huma Abedin and Cheryl Mills allowed to claim attorney-client privilege in some interviews, even though they were material witnesses and were interviewed themselves under oath? And why were Abedin and Mills allowed to retain and destroy their own hard drives? All the headlines have covered is that Comey and Lynch were irresponsible in their public actions, because of the way it made their roles look to the public. Yeah. We already knew that. We’ll keep digging in the hours to come. And you should too.
