Bombshell text messages sent between two anti-Trump FBI agents eight days after the agency officially began investigating then-candidate Donald Trump was incredibly difficult to unearth – requiring a four-step investigative process, according to DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz during Monday’s Congressional testimony.
The August 8, 2016 text exchange in question can be found in the OIG report released last week on the FBI’s conduct during the Hillary Clinton email investigation, in which former FBI attorney Lisa Page texts counterintelligence agent Peter Strzok: “(Trump’s) not ever going to become president, right? Right?!”, to which Strzok replies: “No. No he’s not. We’ll stop it.”
Two days before this exchange, Strzok told Page “I can protect our country at many levels.”
This series of anti-Trump texts began less than a week after the FBI began investigating possible links between the Trump campaign and Russia on July 31, 2016 – less than two weeks after Donald Trump won the GOP primary race.
Then, on August 15, 2016, Strzok alludes to an “insurance policy,” texting Page “I want to believe the path you threw out for consideration in Andy’s office – that there’s no way he gets elected – but I’m afraid we can’t take that risk,” adding “It’s like an insurance policy in the unlikely event you die before you’re 40.”
