Former FBI Lawyer Lisa Page Said Anti-Trump Texts With Peter Strzok 'Mean Exactly What They Say'
Townhall ^ | 7/17/2018 | Matt Vespa

Posted on 07/20/2018 10:28:55 AM PDT by simpson96

Yesterday was day two of testimony from former FBI lawyer Lisa Page, who was also the mistress of disgraced FBI Agent Peter Strzok. The two sent tens of thousands of texts, anti-Trump in nature during some of the most politically sensitive investigations the FBI has undertaken in recent memory: the Clinton email probe and the counterintelligence investigation into whether the Trump campaign colluded with the Russians. Strzok was a key player in both investigations. Throughout 2016, the two sent texts that have raised eyebrows and questioned the credibility of the FBI’s impartiality. From “we’ll stop it” and an “insurance policy,” both referring to the Trump presidency, GOP lawmakers want to know what Strzok meant. The insurance policy is allegedly the Trump dossier, which was a campaign opposition research file compiled by former MI6 spy Christopher Steele, who was hired by Fusion GPS during the 2016 election; Fusion was hired by the Clinton campaign to find dirt on Trump. That document was allegedly used to secure a FISA warrant to spy on Trump’s former foreign policy adviser Carter Page.

Strzok’s testimony last week before Congress was a rodeo fraught with drama, (snip) Strzok’s main point was that his biased texts weren’t evidence of bias.

For Page, there were no fireworks. No explosive moments that we know of since it was behind closed doors. Yet, House Republicans found her testimony credible and respected her willingness to get to the truth. Her testimony on Friday did, however, raise concerns with Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) concerning whether the FBI was driving towards a desired outcomeon the Russia investigation. Now, Page reportedly told House members that those anti-Trump texts meant exactly what they mean, according to Rep. John Ratcliff (R-TX) (via ABC News):

Too bad we don’t have any reasonable prosecutors in the District of Corruption.

When Stzok goes to Leavenworth, I wonder if he will still have that creepy smirk when 300 pound Bubba demands he bend over?

I hope she gets immunity and spills on this whole evil crowd. She probably regrets her dalliance with the sleazy Strzok and wants to do penance. Let’s help her all we can.

Oh, they'll nail her for something if she actually does tell the truth.

I guess Strzok wont find the joke about “everyone loves surprise morning sex, except if you are in prison...”

He thinks Hillary will give him the FBI in 2021.

History will show that Sessions was the deep state insurance policy that really paid out. Imagine if Trump had appointed a competent aggressive Attorney General with no skeletons in his closet or ties to the deep state. Everything leads directly to Obama but there is no prospect that any of the commissars will be prosecuted. Sessions will never indict them and hence they will never talk.

He won’t go anywhere except to MSNBC.

I wish that weren’t the case, but they protect their own at all costs.

He will defend himself with his snake like hypno-moves. You can see why Mrs. Page fell for him. He will probably be able to use the same charming moves on his new pals in prison.

I fail to see where she has committed any crime at all. But as you say, what does that matter.

Sounds like he was her and the nation’s Strzok of bad luck.
