There is speculation that “the affair” was used as cover for professional collusion.

The Slimes Gerbilist those two used to leak was the one who broke the “affair” matter.

We need those texts to see if the “affair” was real.

Good question given that “Boyd wrote” is actually a long term Session’s minion, not a long term DoJer.

Looks like un-elected bureaucrats in the justice department are going to dictate to the president and congress what they will and will not do.

So Mueller gets to be shadow president/attorney general??

Is this unconstitutional?

What is congress and the president going to do?

If the FBI has done nothing wrong then it has nothing to hide.

Mueller runs RosenWeasel, RosenWeasel runs Sessions.

Does Sessions run Trump?

Uh, It’s entirely legal for the FBI to lie to you.

Not so much going the other way...

The reasoning for that is strikingly similar to Hillary Clinton’s excuse for failing to turn over all of her emails. Hmmmmm

"Why doesn’t Jeff just tell his people to release ALL of this information?"

Call Sessions up on The Twitter and ask him. /sarc

In the immortal words of Harry S Truman, Trump is responsible.

“No such thing as a personal text on a government phone. They are all purely government texts”

Or the criminal misuse of government equipment and funds

Neither the DOJ nor Mueller should have ANY say over what Congress gets to see. Congress can withhold certain texts from public release but it is Congress that must get to decide, not the corrupt and incompetent DOJ crowd and not Mueller. This is truly an outrage and must be stopped. As has been pointed, these texts were sent on taxpayer-owned telephones. Therefore, the texts cannot be “purely personal”. As has also been pointed out, the reporter who broke the story of these two lowlifes having an affair was the same reporter that Strzok was leaking to, so we have no idea whether they were really having an affair at all or if they just leaked a plausible but fictitious explanation for why they sent so many texts to each other.

“Actually, the evidence must be kept for the endless numbers of coming trials.”

First they were lost, and now withheld. The attempt is cover-up, not preservation for evidence.

“The department is not providing text messages that were purely personal in nature,” Boyd wrote.

What he means is they’re not providing text messages that show intent to commit felony and treason.

If youwork the numbers, you wonder what those pieces of crap were actually doing while drawing a salary from my taxes all day. I’m guessing, between making digital kissy-face and conspiring, not too damn much.

The OIG needs to get his hands on everyone of them. Right now. Pronto. No cherry picking allowed.

DOJ is a part of the Executive branch.

Why is this a thing?

“The department is not providing text messages that were purely personal in nature,” Boyd wrote.”

At this point, the number of adult, non-mentally handicapped US citizens of any party who actually believe that the above statement does not indicate a coverup is approximately... 0.000.
