FBI Agent Correctly Calls Trump A “Loathsome Human” So What’s the Problem?
Two FBI officials who would later be assigned to the special counsel’s investigation into Donald Trump’s presidential campaign described him, accurately, as “awful,” an “idiot,” and a “loathsome human” in a series of text messages last year, according to copies of 375 messages released Tuesday. They were right on each and every count. There were no lies, obfuscations, or Trumpian bloviating. They simply told the truth.
A veteran FBI counterintelligence agent, Peter Strzok, said in an election night text that the prospect of a Trump victory was “terrifying,” reports the AP. Again the agent was simply exercising his right to free speech and expressing an opinion, which, as it turns out, was absolutely correct.
Strzok, who also made derogatory comments about Democrats, was removed over the summer from special counsel Robert Mueller’s team following the discovery of text messages exchanged with Lisa Page, an FBI lawyer who was also assigned this year to the investigation.
Page had already concluded her detail when the messages surfaced and returned to the FBI.
Hundreds of the messages, which surfaced in a Justice Department inspector general investigation of the FBI’s inquiry into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server, were being provided to congressional committees.
The issue is the focus of a congressional hearing Wednesday involving Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who appointed Mueller as special counsel in May and oversees his team’s work.
The witless Trump, of course, has used the revelation to disparage FBI leadership as politically tainted. Republicans have also seized on the texts to suggest Mueller’s team is biased against Trump, as they are terrified of the outcome of Mueller’s investigation.
Incidentally, though Strzok wrote that he was “worried about what Trump is encouraging in our behavior” in August 2016, he also said, “I’m worried about what happens if HRC is elected,” using the initials for Hillary Rodham Clinton. That in and of itself shows that Strzok was an equal opportunity texter, showing dislike for Trump, as well as Clinton.
I was listening to it in the car this morning and had to shut it off. The rage was making me erratic. Of course we need another special investigation of the special investigation to investigate those left-wing radical extremists in the FBI. Of course the psychotics an delusional liars with believe their own invention and support the declawing of the FBI, the way they supported the special investigations of Hillary that turned up nothing, the special investigation of Obama bugging Trump tower that has found nothing and the special investigation into the millions of non-existent illegal Mexican votes that happened only in Trumps psychotic paranoid imagination.
Old woman America has fallen and she can’t get up.
This guy has thin skin if he cannot take some criticism being president.
Oh hell yes. His skin is the thinnest kind, which is why he’s so weak and insecure.
