Piggybacking off of Katie and Cortney on these texts

between FBI agents Peter Strzok and Lisa Page. Strzok was

on Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s team investigating

possible collusion between the Trump campaign and the

Russians, but was removed in August once these texts

became public knowledge;Page had already moved on from

the Mueller assignment. Page is the woman with home Strzok

was having an extramarital affair.The texts are filled with

Hillary praising and Trump bashing. At one point, Page says

that Trump should go f**k himself, and that he’s a “loathsome

human.” That’s one of 10,000 text messagesshared between

these two agents. Yet, in more cryptic texts, Strzok mentions

an insurance policy against this presidency

(via Daily Caller):

Two FBI officials who worked on Special Counsel Robert

Mueller’s Russia investigation exchanged text messages last

year in which they appear to have discussed ways to prevent

Donald Trump from being elected president.

“I want to believe the path you threw out for consideration in

Andy’s office — that there’s no way [Trump] gets elected —

but I’m afraid we can’t take that risk,” FBI counterintelligence

official Peter Strzok wrote in a cryptic text message to Lisa

Page, an FBI lawyer and his mistress.

“It’s like an insurance policy in the unlikely event you die

before you’re 40,” Strzok wrote in the text, dated Aug. 15, 2016.

Andy is likely Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe.

Well, the FBI’s counterintelligence investigation into Russian

interference began in July of 2016. It’s possible that’s what

theywere referring to, but overall—it’s still quite unsettling to

see members of our nation’s preeminent law enforcement

and intelligence agencies thinking of ways to screw over the

nextpresident of the United States simply because they don’t

like him or her. If that’s the case, as I’ve always said for those

in government work, resign and move on. We’ll keep you

updatedon any other nuggets that may come from these text

messages.
