We are now getting our first look at a new trove of text messages between FBI agents Peter Strzok and Lisa Page -- who were having an affair during the 2016 election cycle as they worked on the Clinton email investigation, then later as part of the Mueller probe, from which they've been dismissed. The messages reinforce some previously-known dynamics, but also raise new questions. Leah wrote up the basics earlier, but here are a few major takeaways, from my perspective:
(1) In the "old news" file, it's clearer than ever how viscerally Strzok and Page despised Donald Trump as a candidate, lashing out at him as a "f--ing idiot," and calling his election "f--ing terrifying" and depressing. They also didn't think much of their Congressional overseers, referring to the legislative body as "utterly useless" and "contemptible." It appears as though Strzok's disdain for Republicans and GOP voters extended beyond Trump, as he expressed resentment toward the "ignorant hillbillys [sic]" who voted to defeat former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe's wife in a Virginia Senate election. She ran as a Democrat, of course, and was funneled hundreds of thousands of dollars by then-governor Terry McAuliffe, a longtime Clinton ally. That money flowed to her campaign while McCabe was connected to the Bureau's Clinton email probe. The exchanges also demonstrate the deep reverence and admiration both agents harbored for their boss at the time, FBI Director James Comey.

ALERT :
We found a “gap”
And it ain’t 18 minutes !!
Are these two still employed at the FBI?
Yes. They are Obama minions
re (3), i wonder what if any delay there was between NYPD discovering the wiener laptop and NYPD notifying FBI about the laptop. and copying a laptop hard drive takes a overnight, max.
We already had the notorious “5 month gap” of missing Strzok/Page texts. THAT is far more outrageous and concerning than 18 min. in one of the Nixon tapes.... 5 months vs. 18 min., which gap is likely to contain vastly more sensitive info???
"Check out the big ******g brain on Lisa!!"... on November 18th...
I wonder how many pages will be needed to list the laws Obama has broken, up to conspiring to overthrow the government of the United States.
the “ignorant hillbillys [sic]”...
The VA GOP needs to grab this and run with it; they need to tell all of the ignorant Virginia hillbillies (who apparenty comprise a majority of VA voters) about it. HOW DARE these bumpkins vote the wrong way.
Eighteen minutes seems pretty tame in this day and age, doent it?
I could have sworn that he said that he would be hands off on the subject of High-tech Hillarys emails.
Sorry, that looks more like Nov. 13th now...
We need to get “Seven Feet of Stupid” back in front of a committee, sworn in, and see how many times he peads the 5th.
🤭 😬 🤯...

To me, one of the most frightening things about this whole business is that we have people in such lofty and sensitive positions - all the way to SOS - who are so STUPID that they will discuss this stuff through insecure texts and emails.
OK, first I believe Obama had a hand in what was going on with Trump and team. However, I am going to say, Obama has a good out for wanting to be updated on September 2nd. Since he was meeting with Putin, he could say, he needed an update for talking points.
Look for this to be the spin from the media and Democrats.
