President Trump attacked former FBI Director James Comey and two agents formerly involved with the Russia investigation on Saturday for starting a "disgraceful Witch Hunt" against his campaign and eventual administration.

In a tweet, the president lashed out at Comey, as well as FBI agents Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, who were removed from Robert Mueller's special counsel investigation last summer over concerns of anti-Trump bias.

The FBI's inspector general released a report this week that revealed previously unreported text messages between Strzok and Page while the two worked on the investigation in which Strzok assured Page that the investigation would "stop" Trump from becoming president.

The report concluded that their political opinions did not directly influence the investigations they worked on.

1. The FBI exists solely for the purpose of investigating all things "Clinton."

Any other investigations are political, don't you know.

2. STRZOK saw what was happening - red flags and alarms going off at the FBI - thus

the Russian investigation priority..considering the email investigation was beating a dead horse...my earlier post...

makes me think, Strzok's saw the Russian probe as one of the highest priorities..for investigation..and as we know today, the Russians meddled in our election..Strzok saw this -

The premise here is that the decision to prioritize the Russia probe over the emails found on the Weiner laptop requires an explanation or is suspicious on its face. But this is frankly absurd. By September/October 2016, the Clinton emails story had been investigated for more than a year.

The email investigation was highly political..Gowdy and Co. made it so...

I believe the investigation, of the Russian probe, early on, discovered information that raised a red flag and alarm bells went off at the FBI..(thus, my pulling the above excerpt)

Strzok will have his day in court...he saw what was happening....

What a POS - liar POS....we cannot allow him to change the narrative...

6. Instead of being vilified,

Stroke and Page should actually be considered national heroes for recognizing that the Conman-in-Chief was, and is, a clear and present danger to the security of this Country.
