FBI Texts Reveal Anti-Trump, Pro-Clinton Comments

Lol ! That makes it so much worse.

These text were made when the Obama DOJ was conspiring with Fusion GPS, Christopher Steele and the DNC and the Hillary campaign to produce the Steele dossier that wound up being the basis for the first Russia investigation

That dossier was used to obtain a FISA warrant. How is that a " nothing burger " ?

I'd have to agree. This is first class corruption and abuse of power, far from a nothingburger, if you ask me.
 
Please delete partisanship and insert fact.
What I posted was fact.
Prove me wrong.

The partisan left has been attacking Trump since even before the election. Prove me wrong.
 
Here we go with the "deep state" conspiracy theory again!

I've spent most of my adult life either in the military or working for the government...and in my experience, MOST government employees (except perhaps those involved in education) are politically conservative. If there's a "deep state", then y'all are neck-deep in it.

No conspiracy about it. The texts prove it!
 
Page was apparently anticipating a Watergate-style scandal involving Trump, that she envisioned herself playing a role in, only days after the election of November 8, 2016. She must be Nostradamus reincarnate.

I've long suspected that members of the US intelligence community have been conspiring against the President. This story just confirms my suspicions.

Several of the texts were printed in an article at the Washington Examiner.
DOJ provides Congress with hundreds of texts between ex-Mueller team agent Peter Strzok and alleged mistress Lisa Page

The texts overall clearly show a absolute disdain for Trump and others in the GOP.

But there is One INSANE biased text from FBI Hillary Cheerleader Peter Strzok that may have just fatally wounded the Mueller investigation. That text is dated August 15, 2016. Strzok texted Page, “I want to believe the path you threw out for consideration in [deputy FBI director Andrew McCabe’s] office that there's no way he gets elected -- but I'm afraid we can't take that risk. It's like an insurance policy in the unlikely event you die before you're 40…”

Rosenstein was very telling today. I know some on the right are calling to shut the investigation down. But Rosenstein in his answers if you paid attention to them were full of explanations on how thorough this investigation of the DOJ and FBI goes and made it pretty clear as he was at liberty to talk is there are people that will be held accountable. And while members of Congress rightfully want answers because all evidence is pointing to the Obama DOJ and FBI were engaged in using the Trump Dossier as a means to dress it up as counter intelligence and request a FISA warrant to spy on Americans associated with the Trump campaign, there's evidence already there that warranted the Inspector General to launch an investigation that led to the disclosure of these emails and why Strzok has been assigned to HR in the interim and why Ohr has been demoted. Personally I believe there will be several players in the DOJ and FBI whose names are often brought up will be circling the drain in the "swamp" in the very near future.
 
For someone claiming to be a moderate, you are making some partisan statements.


Many people working in the state department and other federal departments come from a wide range of political leanings.

Ever since day one people in Obama's governmental agencies have been part of the resistance and now we see that it goes back even before the election.
 
The partisan left has been attacking Trump since even before the election. Prove me wrong.

No, just attacking a candidate clearly unqualified for the job. That's not partisanship.
 
Well the msm media job is to report the news.

And the comrade in chief gives them news ten times a day.

Yah know why?

Because he is an IDIOT!

The left leaning MSM tries everything they can do to be pro Democratic, pro Hillary, and pro Obama while they also try everything they can do to be anti-Republican and anti-Trump. They control which stories they do and don't do and they do this with a bias.
 
No conspiracy about it. The texts prove it!

The texts prove squat.

Are you really of the opinion that investigators are robots that don't have political opinions? Or that if they have political opinions, it's impossible to for them to perform their duties in a professional and unbiased manner?

Thing is, ALL investigators have personal opinions. Joe Detective might privately call Suspect Jane an idiot, a waste of human flesh, and a danger to her kids...but that does NOT mean that he is performing his investigation in a biased manner. After all, it's the courts - and NOT the investigators - who determine whether the evidence presented is enough for a conviction.

Or are you of the opinion that only Trump supporters can investigate Trump?
 
I luv the ignore button, Adorables are its favorite victims.:2wave:

No one's paying attention to your empty and partsian replies anyway
 
So all of these texts were made before they were on the special counsel?

#NothingBurger

They were made before Flynn was surveilled (possibly illegally). Then, he claims Flynn committed a crime.

It's a travesty.

But, as Rosenstein confirmed today, they can't allow their opinions become bias that affects the investigation; whether it's a negative effect, or a positive effect.
 
Two points.

1)The more the FBI agents learned about Clinton and Trump, the more they liked the former and were terrified of the latter (history is bearing these reactions out to be based in reality).

2)Natasha Betrand, political correspondent for Business Insider, is reporting:

"Just confirmed that the Justice Department invited reporters over to DOJ last night to look at the Strzok/Page texts — and report them out — in case they did not leak in time for Rosenstein's hearing today. Story to come."

The Justice Department is conspiring with the White House to actively undermine an investigation into the President of the United States.

Edit: here we go.



Strzok Page texts in Mueller Russia probe were viewed by reporters at DOJ - Business Insider

The people have a right to know.
 
So there's an LEO who doesn't like Trumpco.
That puts him in line with most Americans.

Not quite the same as a conspiracy involving the DNC et al.

Wouldn't the case that American LEOs are wrongfully out to get Trump be stronger if the guy had kept his position working on the Russia investigation?

What if this was a LEO that didn't like black folks? Would you be ok with it?

Mueller's guilty pleas and indictments don't prove squat regarding Trump.
 
It's more than "doesn't like". As a matter of fact the guy was removed from his position. I am sure Mueller isn't happy with Strzok. The guy was fired for a reason. He pissed in the punch bowl and tainted the investigation, which I am sure Mueller is trying to conduct without bias. Mueller's boss, Rosenstein, sure in hell isn't happy about it either. The DOJ IG is investigating it at this moment, along with the situation with Ohr. There are even more texts that go to intent to taint the investigation that haven't been released that are being referenced in the hearing that is going on right now.

If the investigation is tainted the repercussions would be much larger than if it wasn't, no matter the conclusion. I want a clean and unbiased investigation. I don't want the investigation to go away. I want to know what actually and honestly happened.

In what way is the investigation "tainted"? If you can't be specific, don't bother.

Would the investigation be tainted if emails turned up from an agent expressing support for Trump? In fact, supportive bias is more likely to undermine an investigation than bias against the
the subject. Why? Because it is fairly easy to look the other way, to disregard evidence, and it is difficult and also dangerous to manufacture evidence to frame someone, which is what Mueller's
critics are implying Mueller's team is doing. If that is not what they are implying, what specifically are they worried about?

So far none of the allegations of bias have pointed to even one act of inappropriate conduct, the only valid basis for questioning the integrity of the investigation.
 
What if this was a LEO that didn't like black folks? Would you be ok with it?

It all depends on the person's actions when they are dealing with those 'others'. I would be "ok with it' up to the point his bias is shown to affect his investigation -- then there is a problem.
 
Mueller's guilty pleas and indictments don't prove squat regarding Trump.

At the very LEAST it proves that trump in fact didn't have the best people as he claimed he did. He had crooks in fact.
 
But, as Rosenstein confirmed today, they can't allow their opinions become bias that affects the investigation; whether it's a negative effect, or a positive effect.

Quite true. LEO, especially the FBI, needs to always have an unbiased investigation centering on facts and strictly equal treatment regardless of who is being investigated.

You take a look at the Mueller investigation on one hand, and then take a look at the Hillary email investigation on the other. Only a completely partisan hack / deluded mind would conclude that both investigations treated the person being investigated equally.

Yes, the FBI has become politicized under Obama's administration. As has the IRS, EPA, and any number of other federal agencies. Those swamps need to be drained of these bad humors.
