For John, BLUF: Rogue Civil Servants acting on their own to frustrate elected officials. Nothing to see here; just move along.
From The Daily Caller, by Reporter Chuck Ross, 10 September 2018.
Here is the lede plus one:
Newly released text messages show disgraced FBI official Peter Strzok asked to speak to former FBI lawyer Lisa Page about a “media leak strategy” during a crucial period of the Trump-Russia investigation in 2017.I guess that if you think President Trump is illegitimate, actions to displace him are acceptable. The first problem is that tens of millions think President Trump is legitimate. The second problem is that this kind of action tears down the barriers to future criminal actions by the "deep state" against properly elected officials.The text messages were revealed Monday by North Carolina Republican Rep. Mark Meadows, a member of the House Oversight & Government Reform Committee.
“Our review of these new documents raises grave concerns regarding an apparent systemic culture of media leaking by high-ranking officials at the FBI and DOJ related to ongoing investigations,” Meadows wrote to U.S. Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein in the letter, which was obtained by The Daily Caller News Foundation and first reported by Sara Carter.
