Liz Cheney: Strzok-Page texts sound ‘an awful lot like a coup and it could well be treason’
Washington Examiner ^ | May 26, 2019 | Diana Stancy Correll

Rep. Liz Cheney said Sunday anti-Trump text messages exchanged between then-FBI officials Peter Strzok and Lisa Page reminded her of a coup and suggested it could be treason.

“I think what is really crucially important to remember here is that you had Strzok and Page who were in charge of launching this investigation and they were saying things like, 'We must stop this president, we need an insurance policy against this president,'” the Wyoming Republican said during an interview with ABC News' “This Week with George Stephanopoulos.”

"That in my view when you have people that are in the highest echelons of the law enforcement of this nation saying things like that, that sounds an awful lot like a coup and it could well be treason.”

The U.S. Constitution defines treason as assisting U.S. enemies or “levying war” against the U.S.

Cheney, who is the Republican Conference chairwoman and the third-ranking House GOP lawmaker, referred to a key criticism of Robert Mueller's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election. Strzok and Page have long been at the center of some Republicans' "investigate the investigators" strategy.

The president has put in place an organization that contains the kind of database that no one has ever seen before in life. That’s going to be very, very powerful. That database will have information about everything on every individual in ways that it’s never been done before.” -— Maxine Waters, 2013

Our Government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the Government becomes a law-breaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy. To declare that in the administration of the criminal law the end justifies the means — to declare that the Government may commit crimes in order to secure the conviction of a private criminal — would bring terrible retribution!!

– Louis Brandeis (1856-1941)
