The good thing about having a special counsel investigation is that it’s supposed to be objective. In theory, anyway.

After making numerous requests, Congressional committees have finally been given access to hundreds of inappropriate text messages between FBI officials Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, members of Robert Mueller’s special counsel who were also involved in an extramarital relationship. The messages date back to 2015, a time when both were serving at the FBI; reportedly, Page served as assistant to (brace yourself) Andrew McCabe, whose wife’s losing state senate campaign received unbelievably huge campaign donations through longtime Clinton crony and bag-man, Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe. The candid remarks of Strzok and Page make it clear they supported Hillary Clinton for President and thought of then-candidate Donald Trump as a “loathsome human.”

The content of the messages is yet another story to be filed under “Unsurprising News Of 2017.”

Robert Mueller was informed of the texts way back in July of this year, though we’ve only recently heard about them, and he immediately removed Strzok from his team (not sure about Page). But Strzok had already played a huge role in the investigation of Trump’s campaign and the look-see –- hard to call it much of an investigation –- into Hillary’s private email server, before James Comey inexplicably announced that “no reasonable prosecutor” would press charges on her numerous violations of law. Strzok interrogated Cheryl Mills and Huma Abedin (who both lied and received immunity in exchange for nothing), as well as Michael Flynn before being dropped from the team. His fingerprints seem to be just about everywhere in the investigations into both Trump and Hillary.

This news doesn’t add much to what we already knew or suspected but, in its consistency, just serves to reinforce it.

PLEASE LEAVE ME A COMMENT BELOW. I READ THEM!

ADDENDUM:

The conflicts of interest within the Justice Department and the special counsel are becoming so vast and interconnected, it's hard to keep track of all the players without a scorecard. This excellent opinion piece might help.

Thanks to Donald Trump, we have a new Hero. Her name is Nikki Haley. This fine lady has more guts and brains than all the dems
put together, including those that claim to be republicans. Mister Governor, she would have made you a great v.p.
Thanks.

Thank you for standing up for conservatives. It seems as if we have lost our voice or the the ability to be heard if we do try to speak. So once again, thank you for become in the dark, a voice that we feel we can trust. And that is really hard to find lately. I love that daughter if yours, she is so refreshing. I agree with her 100%. And one more thing, I only have one complaint against President Trump, other than that I am behind him 100%, I do wish he would text. I understand that he feels that is his way to get his message out. But it is getting the wrong message out, we need positive and not negative. Again, thank you.

Somebody needs to poit out that as a sensible informed voter we didn't have much choice who we voted for. The Democrats are TOTALLY RESPONSIBLE for THAT! No one who looked at the Clinton's history could ever see anything good coming from Putting a Clinton in office again. Whereas Trump had ideas and changes and was willing to ADDRESS many of the issues we were extremely concerned about. Even the Republicans are guilty because if they were unhappy with Trump they should have found a candidate who could and would have done a better job of addressing the issues. Political correctness is killing Us.
Don't get me wrong, I am happy with Trump and would have supported you had you won. But now that he is our President he needs our support and it extremely frustrating that the Republicans are guilty of obstructing progress and in some cases even siding with the democrats efforts to remove him from office. Ther appears to be some very underhanded politics at play which is wrong.. It's time to come together and work to get back to a Uninted America.
I am also dissapoinged that they haven't dealt with ALL the major corrupt and illegal mess going on in Washington. If this is not dealt with it will kill the America I love.

This is a comment directed to Pastor Mike Huckabee: This kind of governmental corruption is the reason the Lord's return as the Smiting Stone will crush all the human governments, turn them into chaff powder, burn them and blow them away with the breath of His nostrils, according to Daniel 2:45.

Just a curiosity question re: accusations of sexual harassment: is there no statue of limitations? As bad as the problem is, does that give women the right to come forth 10-40 years later with their stories? Also, is there an actual definition of sexual harassment? One that applies to all defined behaviors for all people, male or female?
Thanks for any enlightenment you can give me.

Please tell us the rules that a Special Counsel operates under. Where did they get their authority? Who gave them their authority? When did they get their authority? Why do we need a Special Counsel? Who pays for a Special Counsel? Who does the Special Counsel answer to? How long does a Special Counsel have to complete their work. Is the Special Counsel something The American People need or is it just a money cow for lawyers? Does a Special Counsel have the freedom to change the reason for why they are operating?

HRC will never be charged with anything. In the event the impossible happens, HRC will never suffer any appropriate punishment. Honestly, I don't believe she will ever be investigated. The Sewer stinks and "American Justice" is an oxymoron. Any of us "inconsequentials" would already be under the jailhouse. What is the "independent council" doing (a) searching for the NW Passage; (b) covering HRC tracks; or (c) making a heck of a lot of money from the "inconsequentials" tax dollars to show how all potential candidates for POTUS will be treated heretofore if they don't join the Dems party. Hmmmm... should I add (d)?

Mike, Do you really think that our Shadow Government will ever allow a Clinton or Clinton operative to be prosecuted under the laws of this Nation? Look, the present members of Congress act like they are playing donkey basketball most of the time. In other words, they waste time drooling about Russia and Trump, than doing something constructive that would benefit our country. The Mueller team is appearing to look corrupt, and they have the power to probe and prosecute anyone. Who's left in the Justice Department that can say they are honest in Washington, D.C.? When it comes to justice, there is none. I'm afraid America is in the gutter.

It's just more of the same corruption that is present in the "deep state." I sincerely hope that it can be overcome. Two other things: your daughter is doing a magnificent job as press secretary. I greatly admire her calmness under pressure and her knowledge of things of importance. Second thing, what happened to your TV show on Sunday nights? My husband and I enjoyed it so much. I hope it will be coming back.

We keep hearing these reports of wrong doing and illegal acts but does anyone suffer any consequences?? None that I can tell. Is it any wonder the American voter and taxpayer feels jaded and hopeless?? Can the cess pool they call Washington DC ever be drained and cleaned up? Is all of this just an exercise (almost called it exorcised which might be more appropriate) in futility? I am hoping for good news, more good news actually instead of the cheers and jeers of the DemonRats. Unfortunately I live in Virginia, land of Governor McAwful and Senators Kaine and Warner, pride of the DemonRats. Unfortunately we are about to inaugurate another one in the governor's seat.

I am overwhelmed by all the corruption and divisiveness in the country and government. So overwhelmed I am not even sure I care anymore. I feel helpless to change it. I feel powerless. All though I am well informed up to this point , I can’t even watch the news anymore. It is not news , it is political meandering. I literally have to go to stations outside of the country to find out what is happening in mine. I feel disgusted , defeated , and totally without power.

I can't believe how this " investigation " is moving BACKWARDS! WHY was MULLER put in this position anyway?
Why haven't all of OBAMA/HILLARY people been taken OUT OF TRUMP'S "TEAM"?
As long as these people are in Trumps "circle", he will never get anywhere with what he wants to do. There has to be a judge somewhere that will get these people out and away from having any "say" with what President Trump can do. I've never seen such disrespect for a PRESIDENT in my life! Most of these people should be in jail for what they've done to him! HE IS POTUS AND SHOULD HAVE THE LAST WORD OVER ANYTHING!

The web of lies and illicit connections is worse that the most awful spider web. It reaches deep and hits you in the face if you walk into it. I do not believe there will be any peace till our TRUE AMERICANS wake up, stand up and support people like you and President Trump to drain the swamp. Not even Magic Eraser could do that right now cause most people are sheeple. Uneducated and not caring about anything except what TV reality show is on next. You keep doing what you are doing, Mike.

Mike,
Kirsten Gillibrand is an attention whore much Kathy Griffin both of whom were seen fawning over Trump when he had something they wanted, and now in complete repudiation of existing photographic evidence they are calling him everything in the book. The lies that Kirsten sends out to her supporters turn my stomach but reflect the narrative of Senator Warren and others. Every day that goes by reminds me what a disaster a Clinton presidency would have been.

Could someone explain to me why these people have not been investigated by someone who is at least honest and been found guilty and put in jail? We all know that they are guilty.All of them! I am so sick of these people and what is going on in Washington. Maybe there are no honest people left in Washington or the government.For instance the FBI and DOJ and probably all the branches of government. By the way please tell Sarah she makes my day when she has a press conference. I say give it to them,Sarah! Love it,girl!

What I would like to know is were these two lovebird FBI agents texting during work hours? I have heard 10,000 texts- that is a big number to be doing after hours. If they were on the job, then the bias in the Special Counsel investigation was openly evident with their filthy insults and discussions, and they should be fired, not reassigned. The FBI and Justice Department needs to get their house in order if they expect us to have any confidence in the justice system.

12/13/2017 03:42 PM

For sometime I have felt that Mueller should resign or be fired. There are too many conflicts of interest. Now I feel both he and Rosenstein need to be fired. Rosenstein is so afraid this is all going to look bad for him since he made the decision to get a special counsel. And it does. My biggest disappointment is in Jeff Sessions...where is he?? He does not seem to be up to the job...The democrats are all tied up in this and are just trying to cover for themselves. Now these emails come out that Mueller knew about in July and we are only know hearing them...This political situation in this country is so corrupt...why should we, the people, believe anything that comes out of this investigation. Trump is the only one that can get rid of all this corruption. I am so sick and tired of it all.

I feel sorry and afraid for my grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Now that Mr. Strzok has been removed from the Team, it seems to me that Strzok's actions changing the wording about Hillary's degree of fault, BACK to what it was determined in the first place.
This would put Hillary back into the position of being Tried & Punished for her Extreme Security handling, yes?
Because Mr. Strzok "had to do something", and did this change in wording, to do it, it should be Reversed.
This would probably put Hillary in prison for a few years, where she really belongs.

The "opposite world" as we call it when it comes to the Statists in power is amazing. From Collusion to Moral Values to Rascism, they are masters at being guilty of something bad (with evidence) and somehow making this same offense stick to the opposition (with no evidence). Of course, the complicit media is crucial in making the "opposite world" approach work.
The Strzok texts should be enough to allow a special investigation into Mueller and Comey's emails. I bet if those were opened up you would find a lot of proof of the "opposite world" tactics, and also quite a few of the missing 30,000 emails from Hillary.
Carol Russell

12/13/2017 03:13 PM

Initially I thought the term "fake news" was a little absurd...until it became quite clear that what the media was pushing was motivated by personal agendas and political bias. "News" has became political commentary, not news reporting. Media stories (frequently non-factual) are planted to shift public opinion, smear reputations, and supplant individuals. "Fake news"?? Probably an accurate term after all!!!
Then there was "drain the swamp". I think most thinking Americans have believed for decades that corruption exists in Washington. But on any given day, you can almost hear that swirling, sucking sound all across the country as one personage after another is exposed.
But Mueller's team???!!! My goodness...how more far reaching can the Clinton tentacles go? It is no wonder that our current administration is experiencing such push back. The corruption in Washington (and beyond) has not experienced such exposure in years, and they don't like it! Time for change!!!

The problem isn't Peter Strzok, it's Mueller and how he got appointed to this in the first place. Remember the "leak" by Comey to the news to get a special prosecutor appointed? Please, how does something get done? I have been writing to the DOJ, the FBI, my Senators and my Congressman, my local FBI -- nobody wants to address this. Why are we still allowing this sham to go on? And appointing a second special prosecutor to prosecute the prosecutors is stupid and a waste of everyone's time and money!! As a taxpaying citizen, when is there enough evidence to say -- time to stop this sham? How much public opinion has to get done before something starts GETTING DONE! I am one of the people who wrote to the FBI when they said there wasn't enough public interest to prosecute Hillary Clinton over her e-mails. Now that is provable, prosecutable evidence. I have written all of the above agencies and representatives over that as well. WHEN DOES SOMETHING GET DONE?????

Mr. Huckabee: In past months, Congress has had numerous Congressional Hearings. None, it seems, have produced any value in bringing charges against those who appear to be corrupt and lying to the American people. I realize that Obama's DOJ was as corrupt as the people who were brought before Congress so it was of no surprise nothing was done during Eric Holder's and Loretta Lynches times in office. It appears the same is happening with Jeff Sessions as the director of the present DOJ. Do you feel our present officials, elected and appointed are accomplishing any headway to bring these corrupt politicians and minions to justice? If so, and when? Thank you for your continued service and work to help make America Great Again!

I realize we are just humans (at least most of us are) and therefore there are crooked people on both sides of the aisle , but when will Democrats learn that every time they start a smear campaign it always seems to end up right back with them. Not that they are more corrupt than anyone else but the corruption just pours out in a never ending stream. There are so many Democrats being investigated now I can't keep track of who did what crime. This is the legacy of Barry Soertoro

Can or will this cesspool be drained? I not a legal mind, can Madam Clinton and her concubines(?) Humana and Mills be indicted? Or have they been given a giant pass. Seems to me that it's time for the Supreme Ct to step in and hold court. Or else Mr Trump as Prsident Fire the whole dam DOJ and appoint a bunch of ultra right wing gun slingers to clean the swamp.
Merry Christmas to you and your family.

I have a lot of problems with the President’s rhetoric, but believe his policies, so far are pretty good. Of course history will determine his effectiveness just like everything else. I shudder to think how things would be under his apponent. The Mueller investigation is so tainted it is beyond anthing I could have imagined. The left is absolutely determined to get the President out no matter what it takes. However, despite what the left thinks, the American people are not all that stupid. When we see someone being beaten up unfairly, generally there is a backlash. The Dems are not looking particularly good. You can bet that if they did succeed in impeaching and convicting Mr. Trump, they would go after Mr. Pence with renewed vigor. After all he does not put himself into tempting or politically dangerous positions with women and he appears to be a man of faith. Just those two things are an anathema to the free wheeling left. Perhaps Mr. Mueller is a man of integrity, but why would a man of integrity staff with such obviously biased people? As predicted the renewed calls for investigations into the Clinton issues is going nowhere. There is big money and lots of payoff, plus the probability of threats.
One more thing, Israel got the territory because the Arabs made war on them. Not the other way around. Why doesn’t the media ever mention that? I believe it is rank antisemetism. As a people, Jews are known stereotypically as being smart, successful, and outspoken. That creates a lot of envy.

Ok, I wanted to thank you for info on Moody Blues being inducted into Hall of Fame...I loved their music,still do when I hear it. I was amazed they were passed over when the ones that made it in at tome of consideration,in my mind, should have been passed over. It is Rock&Roll Hall of Fame....not rap...which I find very hard to listen to (and do not) one ,cause of language&two cause it is not music. Can't sing along to it or dance do it,so,why bother,lol. I do like all types,to a degree,even Christian rap is good,but anyway ,thanks for update .... the Moody Blues era of music was one of the best. Great diversity and real talent,from all in that era. Long Live Rock&Roll!
And thank you for being the one of the hood guys we can trust to deliver the lowdown from a real consevasive &Christian point of view. P.S Your daughter is doing a fantastic job.....I love watching her handle the fake news press. Just love it. She has our voice

Most of this is very old news and deserves not comment any further. However, you should reveal how the Democrats in Alabama cheated to win the Senatorial election. First there was silence during Strange verse Moore so they could isolate Moore if he won. Afterward they used 30 years old data or rather false data to accuse a man who was very conservative and represented Christian values. But, because we had cowards in high places like Shelby and Sessions, who deserted us or was afraid to answer questions fairly, who failed to aid this good man, Moore, until it was too late. Now we know that the two original ladies were lying and had very ulterior motives in lying. Talk about this and pound it into these jelly-fishing Republicans. I was born in Mississippi but now live in Alabama and if I can find a Republican candidate to challenge Shelby then I will do my best to get him elected. Don't you be a Coward now too.
