Ace reporters Sara Carter and Catherine Herridge have broken a huge story on what looks like a post-presidential election attempt to cultivate spies within the Trump administration, as discussed by the adulterous top FBI counter-espionage officials Lisa Page and Peter Strzok in their text messages.

Remember, Trump campaign surrogates who speak with Russian nationals looking for dirt on Hillary Clinton are engaging in collusion and are to be investigated, while Clinton campaign surrogates who speak with Russian nationals looking for dirt on Donald Trump are patriots to be commended.
are these “newly discovered” texts or did someone just finally put 2 and 2 together?
