A message needs to be sent. Stephen Boyd needs to be subject to a predawn, Paul Manafort type, violent raid with he and his companion subject to an armed invasion and search and dragged into the night while his residence is ransacked. It doesn’t matter if he did anything wrong. What matters is that the DOJ functionaries understand that there are personal consequences for obstruction and being part of the deep state.

How long did the FBI and DOJ take before they delivered documents to the Congressional committees? What’s good for the goose, eh?

You make a point about the swamp

The basic premise and evidence so far is the bad guys in question are hillary people gathering opposition research.

The GOPe is therefore not involved in the Hillary opposition research exercises.

YOU started a "conversation" with me by writing TO ME:

"Please quote Classy Freddie Blassie correctly, it’s “Pencil Necked Geek".

I have no idea who that is. I don't actually give a sh*t who that is. I don't give a sh*t what that "Classy Freddie Blassie " calls Schiff.

I don't give a sh*t what you think. YOU BEGAN THIS by TELLING ME something about something I give not a sh*t about.

Let us round it off FOR YOU.

Adam Schiff is a PENCIL-NECKED FREAK (in my opinion) or a PENCIL-NECKED GEEK (as you implore). It really makes no difference. Which means that you really had absolutely NO NEED to begin this in the first place.

But, when you BEGAN THIS...... your sorry snowflake "sensibilities" got all bent out of shape.

Tough sh*t.

Now........ if you want to reread this, please do. If you do, you will realize that YOU took it upon your sorry self to begin something that has ended poorly for you.

...... what have you been inhaling?

You should pay more attention to what is really happening.

Justice Department Withholds Majority Of FBI Texts

http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/byron-york-justice-department-withholds-majority-of-fbi-texts/article/2647289

The Justice Department has given Congress less than 15 percent of the texts between FBI officials Peter Strzok and Lisa Page – and that is all Congress is likely to get, at least until department experts finish an effort to recover an unknown number of previously lost texts that were sent and received during a key five-month period during the Trump-Russia investigation.

There is much confusion over some basic facts of the Strzok-Page texts. How many are there? How many relate to the two most politically-charged investigations in years, the Trump-Russia probe and the Hillary Clinton email investigation? How many have been turned over to Congress? And how many are left to be turned over to Congress?

The answers are complicated, but here is what I have been able to figure out from conversations with the Justice Department and Capitol Hill investigators.

The Justice Department has identified about 50,000 Strzok-Page texts. But that is apart from the texts between Dec. 14, 2016 and May 17, 2017 that were declared missing a week ago but are now being recovered. So, the total is apparently 50,000 plus the currently unknown number of formerly missing texts.

But that number refers only to the Strzok-Page texts that were sent and received on FBI-issued Samsung phones. There are a number of instances in the texts in which the two officials say that they should switch the conversation to iMessage, suggesting they continued to talk about FBI matters on personal Apple phones. For investigators, those are particularly intriguing texts – what was so sensitive that they couldn't discuss on their work phones? – but the number of those texts is unknown. And of course, they have not been turned over to Congress.

How many texts have been turned over? There appears to be some disagreement on that. A Justice Department official estimated that 4,000 texts have been turned over, while a Capitol Hill source put the number at 7,000. The difference might be traced to counting some exchanges as one text, or some other unimportant reason. But in any event, the total number appears to be in the 4,000 to 7,000 range, which includes all the texts handed over on two separate occasions.

How many texts will be turned over? First, it's not possible to know how many texts from the Dec. 14, 2016 to May 17, 2017 time period will be recovered and turned over. But of the 50,000 the Justice Department already has in hand, officials say they have already turned over all they're going to give to Congress.

That means Justice has decided to allow Congress to see just 4,000 to 7,000 of a total of 50,000 Strzok-Page texts – even the larger number is slightly less than 15 percent of the total number of texts the Justice Department has now. Why is that? Justice Department officials point to a Jan. 19 letter from Assistant Attorney General Stephen Boyd to Capitol Hill investigators explaining which texts would and would not be turned over.

"The department is not providing text messages that were purely personal in nature," Boyd wrote. "Furthermore, the department has redacted from some work-related text messages portions that were purely personal. The department's aim in withholding purely personal text messages and redacting personal portions of work-related text messages was primarily to facilitate the committee's access to potentially relevant text messages without having to cull through large quantities of material unrelated to either the investigation of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's use of a personal email server or the investigation into Russian efforts to interfere with the 2016 presidential election."

Finally – and this could be significant or not – Boyd said that "in a few instances," the Justice Department consulted with the office of Trump-Russia special prosecutor Robert Mueller and made some redactions "related to the structure, operation, and substance of the [Special Counsel's Office]'s investigation because it is ongoing." Hill investigators don't really know what that covers.

The bottom line is that the Justice Department has turned over a fairly small percentage of the Strzok-Page texts. Even assuming many of the texts would be personal – the two were having an extramarital affair, after all – some Hill investigators wonder whether between 43,000 and 46,000 of the 50,000 known texts were wholly personal.
