DOJ to hand over official's anti-Trump texts, amid contempt threat
Should be fun reading....

Quote:The Justice Department is in the process of handing over to the House Intelligence Committee the anti-Trump text messages that got a key FBI official removed from Robert Mueller's Russia probe, Fox News has learned -- a move that comes as the panel weighs a possible contempt resolution.

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif., had demanded the text messages between FBI counterintelligence agent Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, an FBI lawyer with whom Strzok was romantically involved. Both were part of Mueller's Russia team at the time. Page has since returned to the FBI, and Strzok was reassigned to the FBI's HR department after the discovery of the anti-Trump texts.

The existence of the texts first emerged publicly over the weekend. A source familiar with the discussion between the DOJ and House panel told Fox News on Tuesday that Nunes has been assured those messages will be turned over in the coming day

The exact timeline is unclear, and only the relevant texts will be turned over.

Also unclear is whether this will satisfy committee Republicans who had been looking to move forward with a contempt resolution against top DOJ and FBI officials barring a breakthrough – after the agencies did not comply with a deadline to hand over long-sought information that goes well beyond text messages.

................

Strzok is a focus of their efforts. House investigators have long regarded him as a key figure in the chain of events when the bureau, in 2016, received the infamous anti-Trump "dossier" and launched a counterintelligence investigation into Russian meddling in the election that ultimately came to encompass FISA surveillance of a Trump campaign associate.

Nunes has sought documents and witnesses from the DOJ and FBI to determine what role, if any, the dossier played in the move to direct the surveillance.

Good read

Quote:The FBI expert in the middle of a political uproar for mocking President Trump in email messages changed a key phrase in former agency Director James Comey’s description of how Hillary Clinton handled classified information, it was reported Monday.

Records show Peter Strzok, who led the investigation of Clinton’s private email server as the second-highest-ranking official in the counterintelligence division, changed Comey’s draft language describing Clinton’s behavior as “grossly negligent” to “extremely careless,” a source told CNN.

ADVERTISING

The shift from “grossly negligent” to “extremely careless” was key because the federal law that covers how classified material should be handled calls for criminal penalties for “gross negligence.”

Writing the memo was a team effort, with numerous officials weighing in and suggesting changes, sources say.

Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) questioned the change last month, but the name of the agent who made the edit was not known until now.

Meanwhile, the Daily Caller reported that Strzok interviewed two former Clinton staffers who gave apparently inaccurate statements about her use of a private email server but did not face legal consequences.

Cheryl Mills and Huma Abedin both said they were unaware of Clinton’s server when they were interviewed by Strzok — despite the fact that they were involved in emails that talked about a server.

“Mills did not learn Clinton was using a private server until after Clinton’s [Department of State] tenure,” read notes from Mills’ May 28, 2016, interview, as obtained by the Daily Caller. “Mills stated she was not even sure she knew what a server was at the time.”

Abedin said she didn’t know about Clinton’s server until she left the State Department in 2013.

“Abedin did not know that Clinton had a private server until about a year and a half ago when it became public knowledge,” the summary of Strzok’s interview with Abedin states.

But in an email on Feb. 27, 2010, Mills asked Abedin “hrc email coming back — is server okay?”

During a House Judiciary Committee hearing in September 2016, then-FBI Director Comey defended the conflicting statements.

“Having done many investigations myself, there’s always conflicting recollections of facts, some of which are central [to the investigation], some of which are peripheral,” Comey said.

CNN also reported that Strzok was the FBI official who signed the document that launched the investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election.

He was taken off the probe after emails he wrote to another agent apparently mocking Trump came to the attention of special counsel Robert Mueller, who is heading the investigation.

The president took to Twitter over the weekend to slam the agent. “Tainted (no, very dishonest?) FBI ‘agent’s role in Clinton probe under review.’ Led Clinton Email probe. @foxandfriends Clinton money going to wife of another FBI agent in charge.”

If Peter Strzok is doing the interview, then obviously, yes.

RE: DOJ to hand over official's anti-Trump texts, amid contempt threat
You know, as the guy was texting his phuck buddy the FBI chick, he may have said nothing more damaging than calling Trump an orange-haired buffoon. But the fact that the FBI and DOJ have been soooooo sllllloooowwww responding to Congressional requests for the documentation makes one wonder what's there.

We'll find out soon enough. I hope it's as revealing as everything we've learned so far.

DOJ to hand over official's anti-Trump texts, amid contempt threat
Jus sayin... Put all this out there yesterday.

That aside, beyond that rather merciless beatdown of the UCF fella, not only did Flynn get utterly and completely railroaded by this swamp driven witch hunt, Mills and Abedin (as the article points out) they LIED DIRECTLY to the faces of agents, not screwing up a date or time or location)

They flat denied knowing a F%^£Ingi thing about the Cank and her illegal, insecure, home brew server and Mills, the lawyer, denied even knowing what a server was. Under oath!

Uhhhhhh, Flynn had to plead to what?

Then these two are granted immunity, not only for themselves, but for their laptops/computers as well. And allowed to either take them with them later or have “The Bureau” destroy them for them.

Flynn says what?

Top it off with this assclown Strokhz or whatever it is and the 50 THOUSAND $$$ in political donations from Team Bueller to the Cank, Shorkz was fired/reassigned sometime last Summer for his dumbassery and it is just NOW being released to the Peoples House, under a threat of contempt.

Disgusting and beyond that, flat out frightening.

This is an agency and worse “Independent counsel” (which clearly it’s not) that are totally out of control.

They don’t even recognize the U S Congress as an oversight body any longer.

That’s flippin nuts.

Carry on. /rant


Oh.

And Buckle up!!

That was always a WTF moment for me, but at the time I chalked it up to the decay of excellence that typically occurs under a socialist regime. It's becoming so much clearer these days.
