Trey Gowdy on Strzok-Page FBI Texts:
2018-01-24
[The Federalist] In an interview with Fox News’s Martha MacCallum on Monday night, Reps. Trey Gowdy and John Ratcliffe revealed new details about the text messages between two FBI agents who were kicked off the ongoing investigation into Donald Trump for bias likely to affect their handling of the case.

The FBI provided members of Congress with nearly 400 pages of these text messages between Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, two FBI agents removed, after months on the job, from the ongoing Russia probe. That is investigating whether Trump and his campaign associates colluded with Russian officials to sway the 2016 election. Officials discovered anti-Trump messages between the two.

Strzok and Page, who were allegedly having an affair with each other, left or were removed from the Robert Mueller probe in the summer of 2017. Printouts of text messages between these two from August 2015 to December 2016 were given to members of Congress Friday evening, according to a letter by Sen. Ron Johnson. Text messages between the two from December 14, 2016 to May 17, 2017 were reportedly lost due to a technical glitch on the FBI’s part.

"The loss of records from this period is concerning because it is apparent from other records that Mr. Strzok and Ms. Page communicated frequently about the investigation," Johnson wrote.

#6  How many of us would be marched off to jail if we tried that defense on the FBI?

#5  Don't you just love how it is only the people and departments that lose stuff to technical glitches and only during the time they are being investigated for?

#1  50,000 emails between Strzok and Page went missing? Do emails ever really disappear? Are the the FBI emails and texts collected by NSA? What about by the service provider?

If Strzok-Page wrote 50,000 emails over a 5 month period, that is roughly 333 per day. For crying-out-loud, when did they have time to "fool aound?"
