Newly released text messages between a pair of FBI anti-Trump officials at the center of the Russia investigation controversy show that they sought to “get around” rules established by the government to preserve text messages, stating that none of the agencies abide by the rules then “why should we.”
Former FBI agent Peter Strzok and FBI lawyer Lisa Page discussed getting new Apple iPhones, in lieu of their Samsung 5 government issued phones in text messages they exchanged in August 2016. They noted in the texts that the new phones would help keep their text messages from government collection after speaking with the FBI’s IT director, according to newly released August 2016 text messages.
“According to text messages produced by the committee, Ms. Page and Mr. Strzok make references to communicating with other FBI employees via text message, phone call, email, and voice mail,”

Why is Strzok still employed by the FBI? I am having serious doubts about Director Wray.
The only question here:
Do we consider the FBI accountable, or do we consider them unaccountable?
These two should not be employed by the government. They should be housed by the government.
“they sought to “get around” rules established by the government to preserve text messages, stating that none of the agencies abide by the rules then “why should we.”
Indeed, the Hillary syndrome. If these people aren’t disciplined, punished they will continue to break rules, regulations and laws.
Just a couple of upstanding government employees diligently working to help the American Taxpayer.
Welcome to the massive DC progressive welfare-warfare state.
Excellent statement. Indeed - no one in DC seems to think in these clear terms.
Accountable to whom?
I gather the release of these text messages indicates they failed in that endeavor.
Hmmmm....so they text each other about how to evade/avoid their texts being archived.
Got it.
Sara Carter is the NEW Drudge.
Drudge is history.
*Make that **email** each other.
These two should have already been suspended because they’re a threat to the safety and security of the country, the FBI, and their fellow employees.
Exactly so. If he has to be drug to the truth and have his nose rubbed in it...and he still won't acknowledge it...he is unfit for the office.
The key guy investigating Clinton’s criminal use of a private server - aimed at avoiding government communication preservation requirements, himself tries to avoid government communication preservation requirements. Maybe just a wee bit of a conflict of interest.
Sooooooo, these two knew that their messages were being monitored and archived this whole time and they still had exchanges like this? Not the brightest bulbs in the six-pack, eh?
Stortz was letting the wrong head do the thinking.
So...like...maybe if we let this mess slip by the FBI/DOJ will get the message and stop misbehaving?
These two seditionists — and all the others — need to go to prison.
Release the memo!!!
