FOX News: Newly released texts between ex-Mueller team members suggest they knew outcome of Clinton email probe in advance

The Justice Department has given various congressional committees nearly 400 pages of additional text messages between two FBI officials who were removed from Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into alleged collusion between the Trump campaign and Russian officials.

One of the newly discovered messages, lawmakers said, appeared to indicate that Peter Strzok and Lisa Page knew that charges would not be filed against Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton as a result of the investigation into her email server -- before Clinton was interviewed by the bureau.

Strzok and Page were pulled off the probe last summer after it emerged that some of their messages to each other included anti-Trump content. Strzok, an FBI counterintelligence agent, was reassigned to the Bureau's human resources division after the discovery of the exchanges with Page, with whom he was having an affair.

WNU Editor: As of this moment these text messages have not been publicly released .... they are being quoted by lawmakers. But the disturbing part of this entire report is not the possibility that the fix was in for the probe on how Hillary Clinton used her email server, but that critical text messages were not saved during a critical moment during the Trump transition .... FBI did not save officials’ texts during key period in Trump probe, senator says (Washington Post). More here .... More texts turned over from FBI agent taken off Mueller team (CBS/AP), and here .... FBI ‘Failed To Preserve’ Five Months Of Text Messages Between Anti-Trump FBI Agents (Daily Caller). The FBI has already given a technical explanation on why these texts were lost .... but still .... the optics look horrible. Correction .... this sticks to high-heaven.

Powerlineblg.com has pointed out that these texts do not really disappear, only that they the have disappeared from the records at the FBI.
