| Mueller investigation now being investigated by DOJ |
| 2017-12-07 |
| [Daily Caller] The Justice Department is sifting through 10,000 text messages involving the FBI agent who was kicked off of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation for making anti-Trump comments. Fox News reports that the bureau is reviewing "several months" worth of messages that the agent, Peter Strzok, exchanged with Lisa Page, an FBI attorney with whom he was having an affair. The Justice Department is searching the texts before turning them over to the House Intelligence Committee, a process which could take "weeks." The Justice Department’s inspector general discovered over the summer that Strzok and Page exchanged anti-Trump and pro-Clinton text messages last year. After the watchdog informed Mueller’s office, Strzok was "immediately" removed from the Russia investigation, a spokesman for Mueller said over the weekend. Details of Strzok’s removal were kept secret for months. ABC News reported back in August that Strzok had been demoted from Mueller’s team to the FBI’s human resources division. Attempts to find out the rationale were met by "no comments" from Mueller’s office. |

| #10 I watched Wray being interviewed by the House Oversight Committee. One thing that frosts me is how much officials claim they can't reveal something because it's the subject of an ongoing investigation, it's classified or that it's under review by an Inspector General. A great disservice is being done to the American people. That disservice is that we are being kept in the dark about things we should know about to make "informed" decisions and to be able to participate in the political process. Another reason is to provide citizen oversight to ensure an uncorrupted process. Secrecy should only be invoked under unusual conditions such where life might be endangered, developing policy might be threatened, technical secrets might be divulged or a few other unusual situations. Transparency works to make better government; not worse government. |

| #8 Send him to Vietnam where he can pick up the nasty liver flukes we picked up. Parasites for a parasite. |

| #4 Dar Es Salaam and Kampala are delightful this time of year. Luanda and Kinshasa are especially wonderful. I could name a number of Equatorial African pest holes you could send these burrowed in lefties. |

| #3 Strzok had been demoted from Mueller’s team to the FBI’s human resources division. HR in D.C.? I'd prefer firing of such employees but as someone here said, that is difficult to do in government. In lieu of firing, how about a different assignment overseas? Possible reassignment offices for Deep State employees. Say Abuja, Nigeria in a small office in the bowels of an embassy? |

| #2 Well, whenever you decide to compare notes, I already have convictions as do many of OUR Citizens of this Mis-feasance. Or worse. All that money for a political smoke-screen and yet I have balance sheets and more implicating the FBI heads in scandal after scandal. It is much more than some journal entries, guys. This is is political corruption golden corral type. I have half of one party on corrupt all out and another 1/3. If you could not see this open source or by media reports alone, you are no detective. Feel free American Public to put this balance sheet together that incriminates the clintons and the rest of that corrupt "government" sauce factory has wrought you. Take your time but hurry up. |

| #1 who was kicked off of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation for making anti-Trump comments I get the impression that he was "kicked off" for sleeping with a married coworker, not for hating the deplorables' POTUS - which is normal in his circles. |
