A bombshell report released Thursday by the Justice Department's inspector general includes new evidence that an FBI agent and an agency lawyer who were having an affair in 2016 were also plotting to keep President Donald Trump from winning the election.

I think the no evidence of political bias was related to the email investigation only, not the texts.

The arrogant and sarcastic facial expression of feigned ignorance and innocence.

"'We’ll stop it': Justice Department inspector general says texting FBI lovers talked about keeping Trump from becoming president – yet insists there was no 'political bias' in Hillary Clinton email probe"

2 + 2 = 5. Red is Blue. True is False. They tried to stop Trump, but they weren't biased or anything.

Liars and cowards!

Strzok must have flipped. That’s why he still has a job as IG can only talk to a current employee being him via a prosecutor, maybe Huber?

I strongly suspect both Strzok and Page have been "cooperating witnesses" for some time, and have made multiple appearances before Huber's grand jury. And I suspect they're not the only ones. Time will tell...

It’s not that the reply has been redacted, it’s that the reply was entirely removed. Think about that for a moment.

Time to really drain the swamp. I’m looking at you, Mr. Sessions.

"No political bias".. Yeah right. I suppose the motivation to stop Trump was EVEN WORSE than political bias..

The Deep State had committed MULTIPLE FELONIES INCLUDING TREASON and they were AFRAID TEAM TRUMP WOULD PROSECUTE THEM FOR THEIR CRIMES so they sought to prevent him from getting elected.

I have yet to have seen any evidence that these two were lovers.

Finally, a genuine bombshell. Now we just need Comey and McCabe saying the same.

Firing, loss of pension, blacklisted on any Federal job, and hard time is the least of what should happen to them.

But I fear they’ll only get the Lois Lerner variety slap on the wrist.

Is Strzok really an “underling” he is not a Director, but Cheif of Counterintelligence does not sound insignificant to me. That is a relatively big fish if he is indicted for conspiring to commit election fraud. No, he is not the Director, but Chief Counterintelligence sounds pretty high on the FBI org chart.

I get your point about scapegoating him to protect Comey/McCabe, but often the higher ups set up systems to give themselves plausible deniability so prosecutions stop with lower ranked conspirators. That is just how organizations are usually set up.

The bigger problem is the inability to find anyone in the deep state to prosecute Comey and McCabe. Both lied to Congress and FBI staff so the crimes are already there to prosecute. The bigger problem is that lower staff without clout get prosecuted while the top brass gets away with murder and are treated as if they are above the law. It is just how the game is played.

Sessions is just not going to prosecute anybody that high.

Fire and jail these treasonous bastards

One has been fired, and one has been reassigned. Why wasn't the second fired? Think cooperating witness. Don't forget that the US Attorney for Utah is tasked with criminal charges stemming from the IG report, and prosecutions will require cooperative witness testimony.

Patience.

Likely some few of the thousands of e-mails between the two included messages of a more personal thrust, so to speak.

“Last night your big teeth were particularly busy, my love.”

“And your stroke, Mr. Strzok-—who wouldn’t, um, crack under such a technique?”

Reckon it will all come out in due time.

He’s the one who LAUNCHED the Trump counter intelligence operation against Trump. AND he went to work for Herr Mueller...

I would assume that at the 2:30 press conference Sarah Sanders is going to state that Trump is now demanding the DOJ to release ALL of the information being withheld from Congress and to revoke Mueller’s mandate for conducting an investigation based on a fraudulent premise.
