REVEALED: Peter Strzok Had Personal Relationship With Recused Judge In Michael Flynn Case
The Federalist ^ | 3/16/18 | Mollie Hemingway

Posted on 03/16/2018 10:29:20 AM PDT by Faith Presses On

Newly discovered text messages obtained by The Federalist reveal two key federal law enforcement officials conspired to meet with the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) judge who presided over the federal case against Michael Flynn. The judge, Rudolph Contreras, was recused from handling the case just days after accepting the guilty plea of President Donald Trump’s former national security adviser who was charged with making false statements to federal investigators.

The text messages about Contreras between controversial Department of Justice lawyer Lisa Page and Peter Strzok, the top Federal Bureau of Investigation counterintelligence official who was kicked off Robert Mueller’s special counsel team, were deliberately hidden from Congress, multiple congressional investigators told The Federalist. In the messages, Page and Strzok, who are rumored to have been engaged in an illicit romantic affair, discussed Strzok’s personal friendship with Contreras and how to leverage that relationship in ongoing counterintelligence matters.

“Rudy is on the [Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court]!” Page excitedly texted Strzok on July 25, 2016. “Did you know that? Just appointed two months ago.”

“I did,” Strzok responded. “I need to get together with him.”

If I’m not mistaken, I think Pete Strzok remains an active member of the FBI to this day. Makes you wonder how seriously the bureau takes all these charges. Same thing for his girlfriend. Still drawing checks.

Talk about a swamp, cleaning out King Augeas’ stables was easy compared to cleaning out DC.

The article touches on the Strzok/Contreras relationship as it touches on the Flynn recusal.

But Contreras is also a FISA judge. Did he approve the initial FISA warrant against Carter Page? Did Strzok author the FISA application?

This could get uglier.

The corruption continues to reach new heights - I wonder if this is the reason he was recused from the case (and note that ‘recused’ is not the same as him voluntarily recusing himself - obviously he should have known to have done on his own without having to being ‘recused’).

Strzok F’d America,
and he remains in power,
like McCabe.
Why not the gallows?

The DO”J” accepts lies, murder of witnesses
and judges,
and attempts to murder an ELECTED PRESIDENT.
Wink. Wink. Nod. Nod.

The People do not.
