Judicial Watch Sues FBI for Records About Removal of Alleged Anti-Trump FBI Official from Mueller Team

The FBI and Justice Department are engulfed in a rule of law crisis because of new revelations of evident bias among FBI officials and key DOJ prosecutors. Recently, we exposed how Andrew Weissmann, a top Mueller special counsel deputy has anti-Trump bias. And this week, we’re in the forefront of a related scandal about an anti-Trump bias infecting the top echelons of the FBI.

Just yesterday, we filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the FBI for records about the removal and reassignment of Peter Strzok, a former deputy to the assistant director for counterintelligence at the FBI, from the special counsel’s investigative team led by former FBI director Robert Mueller. Strzok also was the FBI’s chief of the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s illicit email server, interviewing Hillary Clinton himself on July 2, 2016.

We filed the suit in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia after the FBI failed to respond to an August 17, 2017, FOIA request ( Judicial Watch, Inc. v. Federal Bureau of Investigation (No. 1:17-cv-02682)). Judicial Watch seeks:

According to reports ( here and here ) Strzok was reportedly removed from the Mueller investigative team in August and reassigned to a human resources position after it was discovered that he and an FBI lawyer, Lisa Page, who worked for FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe and with whom Strzok was allegedly carrying on an extramarital affair, “exchanged text messages during the Clinton investigation and campaign season in which they expressed anti-Trump sentiments and other comments that appeared to favor Clinton.”

Strzok reportedly oversaw the FBI’s interviews of former National Security Adviser General Michael Flynn; changed former FBI Director James Comey’s language about Hillary Clinton’s actions regarding her illicit email server from “grossly negligent” to “extremely careless;” played a lead role in the FBI’s interview of Clinton and is suspected of being responsible for using the unverified dossier to obtain a FISA warrant in order to spy on President Trump’s campaign.

It is disturbing the FBI has stonewalled our request about Mr. Strzok’s demotion for four months. One can only conclude the FBI and Justice Department, including Mr. Mueller’s operation, wanted to hide the truth about how Strzok’s and Page’s political biases and misconduct have compromised both the Clinton email and Russia collusion investigations.

Agent Strzok’s texts about Hillary Clinton and President Trump are responsive to another Judicial Watch FOIA lawsuit but have not yet been produced by the FBI.

We worked the airwaves hard this week to educate Americans on the anti-Trump rule of law crisis. You can view our important Fox hits here and here . We also have been highlighting our battles on OANN here and here.

I think President Trump has the Marines on standby. He has already used them against the Deep State at the CIA.

Add this to using the IRS to silence Tea Party groups and Baraq belongs in prison next to Cankles.

Maybe even in the same cell

🤔🙀. WUT? Come on, they're just truth seeking. Right? So, they want folks to believe that a person who abhors the person they are investigating will give the person being investigated a fair deal? Srsly? Just ignore the plotting on the side with the mistress he's cheating on his wife with. Is j Edgar spinnin'?

The IG has the goods. But all he can do is reccomend reopening the previously closed investigations. So it’s mandatory that “Team Sedition” be removed prior to the IG report. Congress, Trump, Sessions, Wray, and the IG know it. So the IG releases enough to enable Congress White Hats to hammer them in public. They will all be removed prior to the IG report.

That would be McCabe, Priestap, Strzok, Ohr and Ohr, Lisa Page, and about 20 others. All of them. Before January 15th.

Then AG Sessions and Wray will reopen the Hillary email investigation, and assign it to Patriots. Mark my words.

May well bring Sedition charges against some of them as well.

No one will be locked up after all is done and over with.

It is not the American way.

Only small fry are locked up.

Sadly, there’s much truth to that.
