In yet another blow to Mueller’s investigation into alleged Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election, the special counsel was forced to fire a top FBI agent after possible anti-Trump text messages were discovered. “ The agent, Peter Strzok, is considered one of the most experienced and trusted F.B.I. counterintelligence investigators. He helped lead the investigation into whether Hillary Clinton mishandled classified information on her private email account, and then played a major role in the investigation into links between President Trump’s campaign and Russia,” reports the New York Times.
Chuck Ross of the Daily Caller combed through emails from Huma Abedin and Cheryl Mills, former top aides to Hillary Clinton, to see if statements they made to Strzok were false. Sure enough, Mills and Abedin lied to Strzok about Clinton’s private server, claiming they didn’t know it existed until after the former Secretary of State left Obama’s cabinet.
“Mills did not learn Clinton was using a private server until after Clinton’s [Department of State] tenure,” reads notes from Mills’ May 28, 2016 interview. “Mills stated she was not even sure she knew what a server was at the time.”
Abedin also denied knowing about Clinton’s server until leaving 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 undercutting those denials are email exchanges in which both Mills and Abedin either directly discussed or were involved in discussing Clinton’s server.
“hrc email coming back — is server okay?” Mills asked in a Feb. 27, 2010 email to Abedin and Justin Cooper, a longtime aide to Bill Clinton who helped set up the Clinton server.
“Ur funny. We are on the same server,” Cooper replied. Mills and Abedin were also involved in an Aug. 30, 2011 exchange in which State Department official Stephen Mull mentioned that Clinton’s “email server is down.”
And in a Jan. 9, 2011 email exchange, Cooper told Abedin that Clinton’s server had been malfunctioning because “someone was trying to hack us.”
“Had to shut down the server,” wrote Cooper, who told the FBI in his interviews that he discussed Clinton’s server with Abedin in 2009, when it was being set up.
According to CNN, Strzok also personally changed key language that former Bureau Director James Comey used to describe Hillary Clinton’s email conduct.
CNN reports:
Electronic records show Peter Strzok, who led the investigation of Hillary Clinton’s private email server as the No. 2 official in the counterintelligence division, changed Comey’s earlier draft language describing Clinton’s actions as “grossly negligent” to “extremely careless,” the source said. The drafting process was a team effort, CNN is told, with a handful of people reviewing the language as edits were made, according to another US official familiar with the matter.
In yet another stunning twist to the ‘Trump-Russia,’ witch hunt, Fox News host Sean Hannity and Circa News reporter Sara A. Carter have teamed up to reveal that Trump-hating FBI agent Peter Strzok interviewed former National Security advisor Michael Flynn.
Michael Flynn, former National Security Adviser to President Trump, pleaded guilty Friday to making false statements to the FBI about contacting Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak during the transition.

Here’s the question, if Flynn lied to him, and he’s the primary witness how can they proceed against Flynn on his word as the primary witness?

Sorry, but you seem to think the Rule of Law is still alive and well in the once Republic of America.
Nothing about the unmasking, the NSA or FISA. As usual, govt presumes all prior steps to the CURRENT are valid/legal; everything prior is to be ignored and swept under the rug.

This is where Sessions has to put on his big boy pants and do something.

The only ‘big boy pants’ Sessions is putting on are Depends....for more quality nap-time.
Worst time for Trump to take any (R)NC advise for a position, IMO.
These are bad people
The Mask has been pulled away—The FBI were a Tool of the Clinton Cabal of wealth, power and corruption. They were the private KGB of the Clinton/Progressive Movement. They may have even been there “assassination Squad” to take out “enemies of the State (enemies of the Clintons). It is possible they did it or knew and did nothing to investigate. FBI needs to be purged of these agents of the Deep State.
If a Democrat lies to the FBI, and the MSM doesn’t report it, did it really happen?
I imagine DJT needs to create a supervisor to monitor Mueller and be clear about what the job entails stating a detailed case of why Mueller is compromised.
Maybe that’s what the IG is building up to.
btt
Democrats give each other passes because they’re corrupt a-hole...
“So Clinton/Huma lie to FBI about a crime = no crime. Flynn lies to FBI about no crime = crime.”
Pithy. That says it all.
Lock her Up! ...
