David Laufman, who leads the DOJ’s counterintelligence division, is leaving the DOJ for “personal reasons,” according to The Washington Post.

>>“I am getting aggravated at Laufman,” Strzok wrote in one March 23, 2016, text message to FBI lawyer Lisa Page.

>>“But he’s literally doing nothing other than sitting in on the big interviews,” he said in another dated April 9, 2016.

Hmm.....

I understand he’s being rewarded for his years of service with an all expenses paid tour of the Washington DC area, including a stop at Fort Marcy Park.

David Laufman. As another FReeper noted on another thread,

“He’s been going by the name ‘redacted’ recently.”
