WASHINGTON—President Donald Trump said Thursday that an FBI agent once involved in the special counsel’s Russia probe committed “treason,” and he called for Republican investigators in Congress to conclude their probes swiftly.
WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - US President Donald Trump said in an interview that text messages exchanged between two agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation involved in the Russia probe were treasonous, US media reported.
In an interview with Trump on Thursday, the Wall Street Journal reported that the president said the messages sent between Agent Peter Strzok and FBI lawyer Lisa Page in the summer of 2016 amounted to treason because they were critical of him.
Strzok was removed from the Special Counsel's investigation when the texts were uncovered and Page only worked for the Special Counsel's office temporarily.

An estimated 375 texts were handed over, revealing how Strzok and Page had mocked Trump since 2015, according to the Justice Department.

If there is such a thing as treason, it surely is being ocmmitted by many throughout DC, in this day.
DC, land of the lost (mostly).
I was born in 56 and while growing up witnessed near daily acts of Treason / Sedition by Americans.
I had lost all hope of EVER hearing those words used by an American President.
It is about time.
