Justice Department officials are reading through “over 10,000 texts” between FBI officials Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, Fox News has learned, after it emerged Strzok was removed from Special Counsel Robert Mueller's Russia probe following the discovery of anti-Trump messages between them.
Department of Justice officials told Fox News they are in the process of going through the texts so they can hand them over to the House Intelligence Committee.
Strzok, who was an FBI counterintelligence agent, had worked on the Mueller probe, but was reassigned to the FBI’s human resources department after the discovery of anti-Trump text messages with Page, with whom he was having an affair. Page was briefly on Mueller’s team, but since has returned to the FBI.
The disclosure of those messages revived Republican concerns about the objectivity of Mueller’s probe.
It’s unclear whether a significant number of the 10,000 texts have anything to do with Trump or the probe itself.
Justice Department officials say the process of reading and redacting the texts could take “weeks,” and that the thousands of text messages between Strzok and Page span over “several months.”
The review process comes as the committee also threatens to move forward with a contempt resolution against top DOJ and FBI officials barring an imminent breakthrough — after the agencies did not comply with a deadline to hand over long-sought information that goes well beyond text messages.

Yummy.
Sounds familiar, I wonder where have I heard this before?
Thanks, @springwater13
C’mon—Only 10,000?
Comey would have the review completed by 10:30 PM tonight.
Leland Live, our local talker, mentioning this now. He reads oir forum.
Every DOJ lawyer receives a ‘ceremonial’ horseshoe magnet upon their hire date. But it might come in handy for erasing hard disks....
damn dam....dam about to break
I’m sure the DOJ will delete the 9,975 that are only about yoga pants and turn the rest over. How many times have we seen this movie?
It wouldn’t surprise me if this FBI slime bag was texting photos of his junk to his hoochie mama.
It takes that long because the Justice officials are busy reviewing their own e-mails. Like with a cloth.

See, this is why Trump is wise in leaving Mueller alone.
I won’t go so far as to say Mueller is actually a covert agent working for Trump, but it is abundantly clear that the longer Mueller is doing his little dog and pony show, the more damning and inflammatory dirt is actually being uncovered.
Not against Trump, of course. But against Comey, the FBI, Hillary, the Democrats and well - everyone who is not Trump.
Mueller is our Useful Idiot. Leave him alone. He is doing more harm - more damage to himself and the Rat Party than any Repub ever could.
Given they were having an adulterous affair (which used to be enough to take away a clearance, amirite?), the ones about the yoga pants might be the most damning.
they need to eliminate the ones where he writes about getting off on her gums. We don’t need to see those
bttt
It wouldn’t surprise me if this FBI slime bag was texting photos of his junk to his hoochie mama.
