In yet another blow to Mueller’s investigation into alleged Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election, the special counsel was forced to fire a top FBI agent after possible anti-Trump text messages were discovered. “ The agent, Peter Strzok, is considered one of the most experienced and trusted F.B.I. counterintelligence investigators. He helped lead the investigation into whether Hillary Clinton mishandled classified information on her private email account, and then played a major role in the investigation into links between President Trump’s campaign and Russia,” reports the New York Times.
Chuck Ross of the Daily Caller combed through emails from Huma Abedin and Cheryl Mills, former top aides to Hillary Clinton, to see if statements they made to Strzok were false. Sure enough, Mills and Abedin lied to Strzok about Clinton’s private server, claiming they didn’t know it existed until after the former Secretary of State left Obama’s cabinet.
“Mills did not learn Clinton was using a private server until after Clinton’s [Department of State] tenure,” reads notes from Mills’ May 28, 2016 interview. “Mills stated she was not even sure she knew what a server was at the time.”
Abedin also denied knowing about Clinton’s server until leaving the State Department in 2013.
“Abedin did not know that Clinton had a private server until about a year and a half ago when it became public knowledge,” the summary of Strzok’s interview with Abedin states.

But undercutting those denials are email exchanges in which both Mills and Abedin either directly discussed or were involved in discussing Clinton’s server.
“hrc email coming back — is server okay?” Mills asked in a Feb. 27, 2010 email to Abedin and Justin Cooper, a longtime aide to Bill Clinton who helped set up the Clinton server.
“Ur funny. We are on the same server,” Cooper replied. Mills and Abedin were also involved in an Aug. 30, 2011 exchange in which State Department official Stephen Mull mentioned that Clinton’s “email server is down.”
And in a Jan. 9, 2011 email exchange, Cooper told Abedin that Clinton’s server had been malfunctioning because “someone was trying to hack us.”
“Had to shut down the server,” wrote Cooper, who told the FBI in his interviews that he discussed Clinton’s server with Abedin in 2009, when it was being set up.
According to CNN, Strzok also personally changed key language that former Bureau Director James Comey used to describe Hillary Clinton’s email conduct.
CNN reports:
Electronic records show Peter Strzok, who led the investigation of Hillary Clinton’s private email server as the No. 2 official in the counterintelligence division, changed Comey’s earlier draft language describing Clinton’s actions as “grossly negligent” to “extremely careless,” the source said. The drafting process was a team effort, CNN is told, with a handful of people reviewing the language as edits were made, according to another US official familiar with the matter.
In yet another stunning twist to the ‘Trump-Russia,’ witch hunt, Fox News host Sean Hannity and Circa News reporter Sara A. Carter have teamed up to reveal that Trump-hating FBI agent Peter Strzok interviewed former National Security advisor Michael Flynn.
Michael Flynn, former National Security Adviser to President Trump, pleaded guilty Friday to making false statements to the FBI about contacting Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak during the transition.
i’m starting to envy the iron grip obama/clinton have been able to maintain on our entire govt. but then again, they had the press and the democrats and even the GOP helping. would be nice if we had at least the GOP helping our President.
The deep-state has access to the stuff to start a big problem such as a military type attack that could be blamed on the right as a diversion. Don't put it past the DS to create a huge diversion before they go down in an effort stall or stop the process. These loons are dangerous and the right must be on guard for this possibility.
In other words, liberals, leftists et al hold themselves as incapable of lying according to their subjective standard of what constitutes reality, and that is all that matters.
....Now if they would only create and live in their own reality of gravity...
Got it?
And if Clinton was elected all would have gone down the memory hole.
in a nutshell
Too Conflicted to Fail (tm).
“So Clinton/Huma lie to FBI about a crime = no crime. Flynn lies to FBI about no crime = crime.”
This is where Sessions has to put on his big boy pants and do something. There is clearly evidence here to prosecute both Mills and Abedin for lying to the FBI. Same crime as Flynn. The only exception here is Trump fired Flynn. Hillary didn’t fire Abedin or Mills, which could be taken as she was complicit in the crime.
This is an open and closed case and using Flynn as the rule, the MSM cannot do a damn thing about it.
No doubt the news will bring another round of tut-tuts from the networks.
Yes, liberals think they can speak things into existence. Liberals believe that whatever passes their lips is truth - just because they said it. Liberals do not realize that only God can speak things into existence.
I can Not believe these people are not in handfcuffs and orange jumpsuits. maybe we need a person in charge of the Justice Department capable of bringing charges against lying, corrupt, treasonous PUBLIC SERVANTS!, We could call him the Attorney General.
I’m not understanding how Flynn could have any legal problems with all this obvious bias and lack of a crime.
Come on Flynn. Get yourself a real lawyer and fight this.
Hillary Clinton Investigation-James Comey sends a courtesy FBI SUV to pick her and her entourage up and chauffeur them to the FBI headquarters where Comey allows targets of the investigation to sit in on the interview as part of Clinton's legal team. Hillary's out in time for a late lunch.
Here’s the question, if Flynn lied to him, and he’s the primary witness how can they proceed against Flynn on his word as the primary witness?
Bttt.

Peter Strzok was not removed from Muellers’ team for being anti-Trump. Hell Muellers’ entire team is anti-Trump. Strzok was removed for leaking details of the Manafort raid to the Washington Post.
Imagine after the “interrogation”, Hillary and her crew fist bumping and high fiving Peter Strzok, the FBI “interrogator”.
She was careless, she was sloppy. Did I say sloppy? Like that Sandy Burger guy, he was sloppy. Ha ha ha, (here’s another fist bump, Peter).
After making false, politically motivated recommendations re Hillary’s handling of e-mails (so she wouldn’t be further investigated) and the (red herring, made out of whole cloth) issue of Russia’s involvement in the 2016 election (so candidate Trump would be investigated), Alphabet was transferred to HR (Human Relations).
When a hired hand in a federal govt. agency really screws the pooch they are transferred to personnel administration; IOW, now Alphabet oversees and makes recommendations upon the conduct of others in the bureau.
