Mueller Investigators’ Text Messages In 2017 Mull “Insurance Policy” In Case Of Trump Victory
Hot Air ^ | 13 Dec, 2017 | ED MORRISSEY

Posted on 12/13/2017 7:25:40 PM PST by MtnClimber

Text messages involving an FBI agent assigned to both Robert Mueller’s special-counsel probe and the FBI’s investigation of Hillary Clinton have called the integrity of both cases into question. Peter Strzok got reassigned from his top counterintelligence position to Human Resouces after the discovery of the communications with fellow FBI agent Lisa Page, also briefly assigned to the Mueller team. Their comments over more than a year of text communications reveal a heavy bias against Republicans in general and Donald Trump in particular, but it might be Strzok’s affinity for Hillary that could put the FBI under a microscope — including James Comey.....

However, the issues aren’t entirely limited to the Hillary probe. The Daily Caller’s Chuck Ross found a couple of cryptic messages that suggest some sort of plan to deal with a Trump win, one possibly involving FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe:

“I want to believe the path you threw out for consideration in Andy’s office — that there’s no way [Trump] gets elected — but I’m afraid we can’t take that risk,” FBI counterintelligence official Peter Strzok wrote in a cryptic text message to Lisa Page, an FBI lawyer and his mistress.

“It’s like an insurance policy in the unlikely event you die before you’re 40,” Strzok wrote in the text, dated Aug. 15, 2016.

Andy is likely Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe.

Just what would this insurance policy be? An attempt to allege collusion with Russian propagandists, perhaps?

How did the text messages get released to the public? I haven’t heard how that happened or who did it. Maybe there’s one patriot remaining at the FBI?


Most likely the DOJ Inspector General was investigating leaks. The DOJ released the text messages last week and yesterday.

Wow. Thanks for all of that. Dare we have hope that there might be light at the end of a tunnel?

Yes, that is my understanding as well. In the unexpected election of Trump, they needed something to take him down. It is sedition and a coup attempt.

There’s 10,000 of them, it’ll take awhile for the press and Congress to read through them. McCabe’s text messages also need to be subpoenaed.

Some commentators have this wrong, that they wanted to prevent Trump’s election. They were discussing a plan of action to take if Trump was elected.

If the case you’ve laid out is correct, it means the rule of law is upheld, no matter the outcome. There’s really no way forward for the republic without this kind of investigation.

Thanks for adding so much additional information bigbob. This just shows the true rot of the deep state.

This has been going on out of the spotlight, for almost a year now by IG Michael Horowitz whose name is soon to become a household word.

Obama appointed Michael Horowitz's name became a "household word" when he was the IG who whitewashed Fast & Furious.

There are lots of patriots at FBI and DOJ, you just won’t hear that in the FR echo chamber. But they’re wrong.

Sorry, but after an era of Bush-Clinton-Bush-Obama, there are very few good people working in government. They don't hire good people, they hire people that can be compromised. Let's stop peddling this fiction about white hats in government since there is little to no proof that this is the case.

“he (Horowitz) was the IG who whitewashed Fast & Furious.”

Bummer. Now my hopes are dashed. Another guy in the loop to take down Trump.
