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.
Got it?
From what I’ve gleaned, the StZok-oid was fired primarily leaking inside information on the Mannafort raid to WAPO. The Message was just the public consumption version.
Bring onto them to bear the pressures they wield so freely like middle school girls.
He is not fired but instead in charge of FBI personnel and associated records. Which really means he has been put in charge of shutting down any agents who may talk about the cancer at the FBI/DOJ.
At least we have an honest Republican in Nunes on the House side, notwithstanding efforts by Schiff and his cohorts to shut him down; Nunes demanded the information on Strozk from Mueller three months ago and has followed up with repeated requests - nothing, go fly a kite. On the Senate side, I haven’t heard a peep out of Republican Senator Burr, the head of their investigative committee; instead, we hear constantly from the first class phony Mark Warner, who although he is in the minority, appears to act as Chairthing in the absence of any protest by Burr.
'They Should All Step Aside': Ingraham Says Mueller Deputy Represented Clinton Foundation
The agent, Peter Strzok, is considered one of the most experienced and trusted F.B.I. counterintelligence investigators.
That’s a problem.
Nunes has earned the AG job if he wants it and can do it,
This is a massive coverup and TREASON against
the US Constitution by the ClintonFoundation
and Mueller (its paid agent) and McCabe (its paid
agent through his wife) and many others.
Why?
So that uranium could be given to N. Korea and
Iran to nuke American cities.
If they are not indicted, either civil war
or their-initiated nuclear holocaust is coming.
The Mueller investigation isn’t just tainted, it’s poisoned with partisanship.
“So Clinton/Huma lie to FBI about a crime = no crime. Flynn lies to FBI about no crime = crime. “
I agree with your assessment but I have an explanation. If you are talking to a liberal, you know whatever they say reflects how they see reality. Therefore anything they say, although it may be objectively wrong, reflects the reality as they see it. Therefore, as far as they and their vision of reality see it, whatever they said that may be objectively incorrect, is not, in fact, a lie.
Conservatives see reality as, say, an objective observer would see it. Therefore if they say something that does not comport with that objective reality, it is a lie.
For a liberal to say the sky is orange when the color chart says blue, is not a lie. But if a conservative says orange and the chart says blue, it is a lie. See?
He is not fired but instead in charge of FBI personnel and associated records!
These are the records congress have been asking for?? OMG, More corruption, send in the Marines!
Hmmmm... sentence 2 pretty much refutes the concept in sentence one, doesn't it?
It’s treasonous.
John Harington
btt
Yep, another straight shooter.
It’s treasonous.
Let’s hope this exposure of not just one corrupt FBI agent in Mueller’s inquisition, but multiple corrupt agents (Lisa Page, I’m looking at you...) leads to the collapse of this farce of an investigation. Better yet, it leads to the prosecution of the prosecutors for abuse of authority under color of law.
“In yet another blow to Mueller’s investigation into alleged Russian interference...”
There is no investigation into Russian interference. Mueller is fabricating evidence to impeach. People on our side better figure that out quick.
