[Applause]

psy

hi sitting here reading affidavits

happy to be engaged in work again

[Applause]

i'm so happy for you

meeting with andy mccabe hilariously

andy's suggestion was that i should be

tied to the thing you're working on

totally his idea holy [ __ ] yes

exclamation point

exclamation point exclamation point did

you get laid yesterday

i didn't and i'm concerned that someone

forgot to validate my time or something

that's funny paid not laid

oh and suddenly i'm in a very sour mood

don't you

brush me off i'm wildly good at being

persistent pain in the ass too

winky face maybe i should ask to be

reassigned

winky face ah you better not three

exclamation points

i have a real problem with anglophiles

and the whole perception

of bringing intellectual greatness to

the world

it was damn cold out this morning

oh i totally need your shirt and thin

gloves something for my ears

hey i assume going forward that it's

okay to send entirely

innocuous news articles right i just

sent one

i hope paul ryan fails and crashes in a

blaze of glory

yes and me too at some point the

republican party needs to pull their

head

out of their ass shows no sign of

occurring anytime soon

check out the balls on france

just like that they're conducting

airstrikes on syria yeah but

france they're probably

distributing leaflets with insults i

cannot think of a more qualified

person you are going to be awesome

thank you i'm suddenly really excited

scared but very happy no don't be scared

i get it

but you're so ready you've already done

the job and worked with mccabe

it's not the job i'm scared about but

i'm really scared about balance

omg sent an email to john moffa i meant

to send to you

not ben except for the automoticon

just blame fat fingers

had a dark moment of not being able to

go to sleep last night

and thinking i wouldn't get the job and

having to save my pride by stepping down

if that happened

i didn't feel that way at 10 50 last

night

that would be a grave injustice and it

would seriously suck

but you get through it people would know

it was utter bs

life would go on and you'd be stronger

for it

i am very good at reveling in insecurity

this is painful annual

ethics training apparently they have

way way too much time on their hands

funny kasich has long been suspected of

being gay

lived with his campaign manager for a

long time

till ten plus years ago when he married

a supermodel wife and immediately popped

out kids

marchers making traffic problems oh yeah

some extremely offensive video screens

set up in front of district

thank god comey can't read and he wasn't

paying attention

i truly hate these people no support for

the woman who actually has to spend the

rest of her life

rearing this child but we care about

life [ __ ]

[Music]

i'm no prude but i'm really appalled by

this

trump called him the p word the man has

no dignity or class

he simply cannot be president i i keep

hoping the charade will end and people

will just

dump him the republican party is in

utter shambles when was the last

competitive ticket they offered

how the [ __ ] can trump be a republican

i have absolutely no idea

still he is so very interesting

god trump is a lowsome human yet he

still may win the nomination

good for hillary it is would he be a

worse president than cruz

trump yeah i think so i'm not so sure

america will get what the voting public

deserves that's what i'm afraid of

god hillary should win 100 million to

zero

hey do you know if you're close walking

to my office now

you didn't have to run you said come

soon i am responsive

holy [ __ ] cruz just dropped out of the

our next president

time

good morning this is a transcribed

interview of peter strzok

the former deputy assistant director of

the fbi's counterintelligence division

chairman goodlatte and chairman gowdy

requested this interview as part of a

joint investigation by the house

judiciary committee

and the house committee on oversight and

government reform to conduct

oversight into the department of

justice's investigation

of former secretary clinton's handling

of classified information

and related matters could the witness

please state his name and position at

the fbi

for the record peter strzok deputy

assistant director

human resources division good morning mr

strzok

okay and you are a special agent with

the federal bureau of investigation yes

and a deputy assistant director in the

fbi is a fairly high rank as i

understand it i would call it a

mid-level senior executive okay

before you were promoted to deputy

assistant director

you yourself were a section chief what

section did you supervise

the espionage section okay very

generally and very succinctly

what does a counterintelligence agent do

so there's a blend of both intelligence

type work and

investigations that go on as well as

criminal work

the way the bureau looks at counter

intelligence is

to protect america against any number of

foreign actors the government of china

the government of russia

anybody who has a foreign intelligence

service working against us

i have heard that you are regarded as

the

number one counterintelligence agent in

the world

comment on that that's kind

for whoever said that i believe there

are a number of

very competent qualified fbi agents who

have spent their careers

working counter intelligence love the

work love protecting america

and i would count myself in that group

within the last week or

two weeks there was media reporting that

you

were escorted out of the fbi building

and that your security clearances were

suspended is that correct

yes

and i would add they are reinstated as

of this last weekend

for the purpose of allowing me to review

material in the fbi's possession

and appear here today

jim comey gave me another big arm around

the shoulder hug after meeting loretta

lynch on wednesday

well he's proud of you i think it's

really cute

[Music]

are you kidding me duck dynasty now

scott

baio ridiculous what that's you speaking

at the republican convention

charles in charge oh that's the best

pbs republican snark no i will not be

sucked in

the douchebags are about to come out

and oh bob dole this

is pathetic donald trump is an enormous

douche how was trump when you met him

other than a douche

trump barely even spoke but the first

thing out of his mouth was we're gonna

win

so big

[Laughter]

the whole thing is like living the bad

dream

god it's just a two-bit organization

i do hope his disorganization comes to

bite him hard in november

it has to right hopefully you get home

in time for crazy-ass grain storage

pyramid ben carson tonight

of rome was like this

about damn time that's cute thanks

chills just because i'm

a homer for american democracy that way

yeah it's pretty cool she just has to

win now

not going to lie i got a flash of

nervousness

yesterday about trump i want to believe

the path you threw out for consideration

in nanny's office

that there's no way he gets elected

but i'm afraid we can't take that risk

it's like an insurance policy in the

unlikely event you die before you're 40.

good afternoon this is a transcribed

interview of lisa page a former

assistant general counsel of the federal

bureau of investigation

with the witness please state her name

in the last position she held at the fbi

for the record

lisa page the last informal role i held

was a special counsel to andrew mccabe

the deputy director of the fbi all right

i want to go to august 15 2016.

quote i want to believe the path you

threw out in andy's office

dash that there's no way he gets elected

dash

but i'm afraid we can't take that risk

it's like an insurance policy

in the unlikely event you die before

your 40 end quote

and that was agent struck to you that's

correct

and andy would be whom andy mccabe

how long did this conversation last i

have no idea

what do you make of the dash

quote i want to believe the path you

threw out in andy's office

dash that there is no way he gets

elected unquote

what is that clause that there is no way

he gets elected

modify there was nothing on the calendar

that there was a formal meeting but i

know the sort of sentiment that

the text is meant to reflect if i could

explain that so sure i just

want you to keep in mind we have 15 days

into a then nation's counterintelligence

investigation

yes yes i understand that if that helps

put it into context

so we were trying to find an answer to

the question right

so if trump is not elected

then to the extent that the russians

were colluding with members of the team

we're still going to investigate that

but if he becomes president

that totally changes the game but can

you explain how you understood mr

strzok's analogy

to an insurance policy there is no

actual insurance policy

he's making an analogy i don't expect to

die anytime

soon i hope that i don't but i have life

insurance

unlikely i'm 38 but you get it in

the unlikely event that you die young

can you explain what you meant by that

text that is an analogy to somebody

saying

hey look every pollster and talking head

thinks that secretary clinton

is going to be elected and my responding

well that may be true but nevertheless

we need to responsibly investigate this

in the unlikely event

based on the polls and the pundits and

the experts that

candidate trump is elected and i am

looking at a text that you sent to

special agent strzok

quote trump's not ever going to become

president right

right unquote and then struck

the agent who originated the

counterintelligence investigation

he responds quote no no he's not we'll

stop it

unquote right well that's a different

sort of

context which i'm happy to explain uh

so the reason he's both the originator

and like the approver is because it was

a sunday and there's nobody around

ah yeah july the 31st is a sunday you

are

correct

all right and your response was quote

no period no he's not period

we'll stop it end quote

what did you mean by no

no was my my recollection of no

and let me just say that there's been a

lot written about this text and what i

can tell you congressman

is in no way does that suggest that i

did or even considered taking any action

i'll tell you what agent strzok before

you get to what you didn't mean

by no how about we settle on what you

did mean by it and then we can discuss

the entire

universe of what you didn't mean by it

i thought that question was her personal

question as to whether or not he would

become president

my answer no was my personal belief that

i did not think

he would be well then why didn't you say

no i don't think he's going to

no i don't think he'll win the electoral

college no

i don't think he'll do well in ohio why

did you say

no he's not sir because my recollection

of that text

which i don't recall specifically

writing is it's late at night

are you denying writing it oh i'm not

denying writing it

okay quote no no he's not unquote

he's not what going to be

my belief that he is not going to be

president

okay quote we'll stop it

unquote who's

we my response to that was coming off of

a speech where

then candidate trump was insulting the

family the immigrant

family of a fallen war hero it was so

unbelievable to me that the american

people

that i that anybody given those sorts of

sentiments and statements would elect

him to the presidency that was my

personal belief

okay okay well that helps agent struck

by

we you meant the united states is that

what you meant

honestly i don't know that i had

anything

who wrote the wii i wrote it congressman

all right so we are less than 10

days into an investigation and you are

talking about stopping the presidency

the person that you were supposed to be

dispassionately and objectively

investigating

no sir that is not what i've said what i

have said is my personal belief that the

american people

i did not believe would elect the

presidents that is fundamentally

different

from what you just said and suggest

we'll let the reader decide how

fundamentally different

it is agent struck

you left the mueller investigation team

at some point in time give me the

circumstances about why sure uh

i participated in the first briefing for

bob mueller

he went to andy mccabe and said who was

that woman

i want her on the team and i said i

don't want to

and andy said well you don't say no to

bob mueller

i was very hesitant because i wanted a

life back

i wanted to parent and be home

regarding joining the mueller team you

and i know the odds

are nothing if i thought it was likely

i would be there no question um

i hesitate in part because of my gut

sense and concern

there's no big there there jesus you

should read this

and trump should go f himself oh god

that's a great article

thanks for sharing and f trump maybe

you're meant to stay where you are

because you're meant to protect the

country from that menace

thanks of course i'll try to approach it

that way

i can protect our country at many levels

i was told my promotion board went the

way bill priestep wanted

but still needs comey's blessing yay

come down to my office for lunch

i'm gonna blow your mind

at john brennan blue check at real

donald trump's

lies reckless jigoism and incompetence

disgrace the office of the presidency

there should be

no place in american society much less

our government for the depravity being

demonstrated daily by at

real donald trump members of his

cabinet who enable such behavior

are betraying their oath of office by

supporting

an increasingly desperate test spot

tweet at comey blue check

oaths are sticky things

tweet only 9.7

000 likes

i want to switch over to march of 2016.

it's a text from you to special agent

peter strzok

okay quote god trump is a loathsome

human unquote

i see that what did you mean by that

i i don't recall what does the word

loathe some mean

i have absolutely no idea what

particular thing was uttered that

i was responding to but

and this is also the one in which

i'll say that you know genitalia's size

was discussed

ah okay uh

let's flip to may of 2017. this is

actually a text from special agent

strzok to you

quote and we need to open the case we

have been waiting on while andy mccabe

is acting and this is what uh

day after director comey has been fired

uh that's correct so what is the case

that you could not open when jim comey

was the director but you

might be able to since andy mccabe is

acting

you're misreading that text sir

uh i've been instructed by fbi council

that what i can say is

the decision to open the case was not

about who was

occupying the director's position which

you would have to have a lot of

creativity to be able to read that text

and reach that conclusion

president obama wants to know everything

we're doing

michael flynn investigation still open

whoopsy face

but serendipitously good i guess

but yeah that's amazing it's still open

good i guess bill's pre-staff sense with

it and

he wanted to know why we had to go

aggressively doing these things

openly i worry bill isn't getting the

underlying distinction that i think is

clear but

maybe i'm wrong

sad face sad face sad face sad face

bill priestep just told me that he

brought up again this time in front of

comey didn't know he was going to do

that

yeah andy is frustrated going into

meeting

don't repeat i won't i won't

pre-step said comey started going one

way and

andy cut him off i'd be frustrated too

i have a question for you

could the admonition regarding 1001

warning of false statements to the fbi

be given at the beginning of the

interview with mike flynn

or does it have to come following a

statement which agents believe to be

false

does the policy speak to that i feel bad

i don't know this but i don't remember

ever having to do this

plus i've only charged it once in the

context of lying to a federal probation

officer

it seems to be if the former then it

would be an easy way to just casually

slip that in

of course you know sir federal law makes

it a crime to dot dot dot

i haven't read the policy lately but i i

recall

correctly you can say it at any time i'm

90

sure about that notes from what comey

told me about the oval office meeting

january 5th 2017.

joe biden said logan act

president obama said make sure you look

at things have the right people

on it director comey said flynn to

kislyak calls

but appear legitimate happy new year

yeah right bill priestep wrote this

i agreed yesterday that we shouldn't

show flynn

if he didn't admit what is our goal

truth slash admission or get him to lie

so we can prosecute him

or get him fired we regularly show

subjects evidence with the goal of

getting them to admit

their wrongdoing if we get him to admit

to breaking the logan act give fax to

doj

and have them decide is annie mccabe

good with f302 summary of mike flynn's

fbi interview

i can feel my heart beating harder

i'm so stressed out about all the ways

this has the potential to

fully go off the rails i made your edits

and i sent them

to joe i also emailed you an updated 302

summary of mike flynn's fbi interview

i really appreciate your time and edits

this document pisses me off you didn't

even attempt to make it cogent

and readable this is lazy work on your

part lisa

you didn't see it before my edits that

went into it

what i sent you i was trying

one to completely rewrite the thing to

save

voice and two get it out to you

for general review and comment in

anticipation of needing it soon

i greatly appreciate your time in

reviewing

and your edits i incorporated them

thank you pre-step

like us is concerned with oversharing

doesn't want clapper giving mike flynn

cuts to white house

all political just shows our hand and

potentially makes enemies

i really should take off the whole damn

day so go ahead

i'd obviously love to have you at the

director's brief but

if not i'll stop by and i'll give you an

in-person debrief

[Music]

talk about an unexpected and unpleasant

blast from the past

just went to a southern virginia walmart

i could

smell the trump support oh

yeah yeah it's scary real down here

vomit vomit vomit

vomit vomit funny quote from my

cousin-in-law

no way trump will drop out hey

republicans

how does it feel to carry something to

term

on november 3rd you did text quote

jill stein and gary johnson are effing

everything up to

unquote does effing stand for

yes what did you mean by that

but my sense was again from a personal

perspective

looking at the race the presidential

race that a variety of actors

were causing debates and shifts and

movement in a way that was causing

core messaging or just general sentiment

to be moved

and shifted well whose chances did you

think stein and johnson were hurting

clinton's or

trumps i believe clinton's well

i could almost take from the reading of

this text that you wanted her to win

congressman like many agents i have had

certainly strongly held political

opinions that are personal

there have been presidents that i've

liked that have been elected and there

have been presidents

that i didn't particularly care for that

were elected so

it's fair to say you were a hillary

clinton supporter

congressman i think that's clear from

the reading of the text that certainly

i wasn't a trump fan well just to be on

the safe side we'll get you to say it

anyway even if it is clear

from the reading of the text you were a

clinton supporter

sir my personal perspective was that i

supported secretary clinton ahead

of then-candidate trump and when did you

decide to start supporting her did you

support her in the primary no i

again this makes me uncomfortable that

the legislative branch is inquiring

about the personal views of an executive

your texts make us pretty damn

uncomfortable too

agent strzok well

four days later i think referencing an

article entitled

victory by mr trump remains possible

you said ah

quote omg this is terrifying

unquote what does omg

stand for oh my god

oh my god this is [ __ ] terrifying

what was terrifying about a victory by

trump what did you mean by

[ __ ] terrifying the prospect that

candidate trump might be elected

and just so i'm right in my mind this is

while you were

also dispassionately objectively

investigating whether or not he colluded

slash coordinated with a foreign actor

to interfere with the election

no those are independent things

congressman were those going

on at the same time yes

so in november when you said it would be

[ __ ] terrifying

for him to become the president you were

investigating whether or not he had

colluded slash coordinated slash

otherwise conspired with a foreign actor

to interfere with the election

yes on march the 14th

lisa page texted you quote

finally two pages away from finishing

all the president's men

did you know the president resigns in

the end unquote

and you replied quote what god that we

should be so

lucky unquote in march of 2017 were you

still working on the russia

investigation

yes what would the cause of the

president's resignation

be this is merely a personal snarky

expression

of my personal belief in nothing more

you think

the head of the executive branch

resigning is just a snarky thing to say

i think my personal opinion was that i

had no love lost for mr trump were you

investigating what russia did and with

whom

if anyone they did it in march of 2017

yes but yet you're somehow able to

separate your professional views from

your private views

yes absolutely what every agent working

every case

does every day let's get to that

you texted quote

me and this case unquote

what case would you be referring to mr

strzok uh what is the date

on that may the 18th

uh-huh anything important happen around

may the 17th or 18th that you can recall

yeah so at that time it was right around

the time that special counselor mueller

was appointed

i believe would you say right around the

time how about

the day after okay so the day after

special counsel mueller was appointed

you're still working on

the existing russia investigation at

this point i am

uh-huh on may the 18th

2017 you texted quote

for me and this case unquote what case

were you referring to at that time the

russia collusion investigations

quote i personally have a sense of

unfinished business

i unleashed it with the clinton email

investigation now i need to fix it and

finish it unquote

what is the quote unquote it congressman

i

i don't we did this earlier and i don't

want to get into parsing

individual words well actually i do

agent strzok

[Applause]

that's why i asked you what does it mean

you wrote it

what does it mean the text i'm telling

you congressman

is my sense that we had done the clinton

investigation

and my involvement in that case watching

that case go from start

to finish watching that information be

weaponized by the government of russia

and used in the context of our election

my feeling was

i've been in this from the beginning we

came to a conclusion well

what i find so fascinating about that

answer special agent strzok is what you

also texted

on may the 18th which is

quote you and i both know the odds are

nothing

if i thought it was likely i'd be there

no question i hesitate in part because

of my gut

sense and concern there's no big

there unquote

what's not there the context of that

quote is i was not certain at the time

one

if there was any sort of illegal

activity going on the nature

of that we had yet to determine you know

was it going on was it coordinated was

this a bunch of

individual opportunities and i find that

interesting

because on exactly the same day you

texted those other things

you said quote who gives

[ __ ] one more assistant director versus

an investigation leading to impeachment

unquote

sounds to me like you'd already made up

your mind

impeachment of whom that's not true

impeachment

of whom that would have been impeachment

of trump

but the text clearly does not say will

my sense was it might

that's undefined in the text and i had

not prejudged or concluded that at

all there you are four days into special

counsel mueller's probe

talking impeachment again special agent

strzok

the day was announced you referenced

impeachment four days later you

referenced impeachment it sounds i guess

to someone who might be a little bit

cynical that you had already made up

your mind

how you wanted it to end is that true

i had absolutely not

did you read this michelle obama is an

incredibly impressive woman

the obamas in general really

while he has certainly made mistakes i'm

proud to have had him as my president

reading the most depressing lead story

about trump and the new york times

couldn't be more proud and sadder of

first lady's comments

you gonna watch the debates i honestly

don't want to

it's not worth the stress to me i cannot

believe what i am hearing

i'm riled up trump is a [ __ ]

idiot is unable to provide a coherent

answer

i can't pull away what the [ __ ]

happened to our country lease question

mark exclamation point question mark

question mark

exclamation point question mark

exclamation point

i don't know but we'll get it back

we're america we rock

donald just said bad ombres bad hombres

that's some jive turkey talk hunky

chris wallace is a turd

hot damn hillary is throwing down saying

trump

in bed with russia psy i'm

sorry she could do so much better but

she's just not getting traction

i'm so damn mad lisa and disgusted

and disappointed trump just said what

the fbi did

is disgraceful

watching the post-debate commentary it's

vaguely satisfying to see megan kelly

who had botox and looks horrible

utterly going after trump

deputy director 100 supportive regarding

your idea

was grateful for the suggestion i'm

sorry i couldn't give you credit

[Music]

wall street journal boy that was fast

should i

find it and tell the team no i think not

i need to send jesus pete then fine

send it to everybody you know you're not

being fair about this

i really cannot believe you're taking

this position and it anchors me

i am being fair about this

all caps what the f difference does it

make to

anybody on the team all caps it's on the

internet

five exclamation points all caps which

you only know about because i told you

it was there you told me it was there 30

minutes after it went up

why are you so angry because it's

critical of andy mccabe

just a tip it's not the way to engender

goodwill by doing a good deed and then

rubbing

a nose in it lisa i'm not rubbing your

nose in it

why do i send noteworthy articles at all

are you upset because you think this

points

to you because if i waited 20 minutes

two hours whatever

it would be okay yeah and i told you a

grand total of two minutes after i

learned it was up from andy

and you sent it five minutes after that

and if you actually read your text

instead of desperately trying to be

first you would see

that i said no i don't think you should

send it

i shouldn't have to explain all of this

you knew it was there because of me

i don't know why any of this is so hard

to understand none of this is hard to

understand which is why i'm asking you

why you're so damn angry at this

literally

every other significant article we've

treated this way

the article was out for half an hour my

sending it in no way

points to you i believe you betrayed my

trust if i thought i was wrong or had

made a mistake i would just say so

thanks you know i'm done talking about

this could you stop already

an article to share fbi agents knew of

clinton-related emails weeks before

director was briefed okay now i'm

getting angry

sorry utterly terrible day

i'm not sure i can identify one single

redeeming

thing about it the bureau does not

deserve us

you can come hang out in 4012 with me

i have remnants of qdoba chips and salsa

at john brennan blue check

when the full extent of your finality

moral turpitude

and political corruption becomes known

you will

take your rightful place as a disgraced

demagogue

in the dustbin of history

you may scapegoat andy mccabe but you

will

not destroy america america will

triumph over you tweet

at comey blue check special agent andrew

mccabe stood tall

over the past eight months when small

people we're trying to tear down an

institution

we all depend on he served with

distinction

for over two decades i wish andy well

i also wish continued strength for the

rest of the fbi

america needs you tweet

202.6 000

likes at chong brennan

of unprincipled and ethical dishonest

and psychophantic cronies

is being methodically brought to justice

we all know where this trail leads

if your utter incompetence is not enough

to run you out of office

then your increasingly obvious political

corruption

surely will tweet

all right let me move forward to may

18th of 2017

which is to put in context the day after

bob mueller has been appointed special

counsel and peter strzok texted you

and said quote for me in this case i

personally have a sense

of unfinished business i unleashed it

with the clinton investigation now i

need to fix it

and finish it unquote a person reading

it might come to the conclusion

the fix it means fix the outcome change

the outcome

stop donald trump finish it

i think the sort of unfinished business

to me really

just reflects who pete is which he's a

leader

he cares about russia in particular it

has in many ways dominated his career

and wanted to finish out the

investigation whatever the outcome

yeah based on that answer though it does

sound like he had a gut sense and

concern that there's no big

there there i'm sorry what

uh what was the question with respect

to any collusion between the trump

campaign and russia

right and so he is the best investigator

so if someone is going to find it it's

going to be him

that's not out of animus that's out of

i hate russia but at least at that point

he had a concern that there wasn't

anything there did he want to find

something no no no

if it's going to end in impeachment

that's kind of a big deal

that's monumental people who are in

watergate

are still known as someone who is on

watergate

there are no wrong choices here like he

worries he overthinks

at either level he would be doing

something he loves

the country is winning because he is

protecting it from foreign threats

[Music]

so right we're both smart hard-working

people

but we both have a lot of self-doubt and

i want you to

look at the text that peter strzok sent

to you

that says quote and damn this feels

momentous

the other one did too but that was to

ensure we didn't

f something up this matters because this

matters in all caps

period so super glad to be on this

voyage with you

unquote do you see that

the clinton investigation was whether

she mishandled classified information

that's important but it does not matter

like a person associated with a

presidential campaign receiving a

potentially

accepting an offer of assistance from

russia which i view as our

sort of most treacherous adversary but

when he says

quote this matters because this matters

so super glad to be on this voyage with

you unquote

it doesn't sound like he's stressed it

sounds like he's happy that's a personal

comment sir

i i don't know what you mean explain

that to me

that's a reflection that okay the

clinton email investigation is over

so he's going back to kind of his day

job right

i'm going back to my day job and now we

have

a new job investigation

which will necessarily involve regular

contact

with each other

the new york times probability numbers

are dropping every day

i am scared for our organization jill

stein [ __ ] gary johnson are effing

everything up too

well why don't we go ten days forward

and see if we can put a little clarity

on this whether or not you're talking

about trump or

sources and methods quote

just went to a southern virginia walmart

could smell

the trump support unquote

what did it smell like

sir that text is meant to convey my

sense of how going from

northern virginia down to southern

virginia how

very different the population was in

their support for the presidential

candidates

and the congressional candidates yeah i

get that agent strzok unfortunately

doesn't come anywhere near what you

actually typed

my question to refresh your recollection

was what did it smell like

i mean you didn't write anything about

how northern virginia is different from

southern virginia and how

the politics may be different in the

bluer parts of the state that's not what

you wrote you wrote

quote you can smell the trump support

unquote and my question to you is

what did it smell like these are

conversational

private texts these are not statements

for the record these are not any sort of

process by which i was conveying my

intent

and meaning this is a conversation done

electron hold on

hold on hold on let's talk about these

texts

generally as they apply to ms page

you have described them as personal

exchanges with a close confidant

a number of times today correct yes sir

now i don't mean to embarrass you but is

lisa page someone that you do or at some

point in time did

love

i was engaged at one point in time in an

extramarital affair i deeply regret the

pain

that all these things have caused my

family i will always

regret that i regret those texts in the

way that they have done that harm and i

would rather

not continue to cause any pain to my

family by

you know going down this line of

questioning okay so what i am trying to

establish

through all of that is was lisa page

someone that you cared about deeply at

the time that you were sending these

messages

lisa page at that time was somebody i

was engaged in an extramarital affair

with

and you also knew that these text

messages they were always intended to be

private yes

to a confidante someone that you were

having an affair with and that you

cared about yes sir so explain to me how

given that context we shouldn't look at

these text messages as your most

honest and true expression of what you

were thinking at the time that you wrote

them

i continually guarded to ensure that

none of my personal political beliefs

ever influenced any act i took as an fbi

agent

that isn't who i am and that is not who

the fbi is and so the

the use and the suggestion that that is

there

deeply undermines the institution of the

fbi but with all due respect agent

strzok you're the one

that's suggesting that you just told us

that these private text messages that

you intended to only be seen by the

person you were having an affair with

were the truest and most honest

expression of your thoughts congressman

that's what you said that's not what the

witness said well let's

ask him let's ask him let's ask him

let's ask him are you more or less

likely to be candid and honest if you

don't think

anybody else is going to read it

i would i don't want to hypothesize

in general private conversations i think

there's an expectation

of an ability to speak candidly see

that's not tough you're more likely to

be candid

if you don't think anybody else is gonna

read it if you think it's private

that was my point so

what did you mean by smell the trump

supports

what i meant by that was that i was

struck

by the just the number and amount of

trump support

but that's not what you said you said

you could smell the trump support

could you also smell the clinton support

i haven't ever tried i am telling you in

this case

in this instance my use of that phrase

was

in the context of an analogy of how

different the local population was well

then

why not say i could see the trump

support i'm not gonna go back and defend

the conversational selection

of a particular word at any given point

well you put

smell in all caps that took a little

time didn't it

not appreciably more than all lowercase

certain intentionality when you put

something in all caps

again congressman i feel like we're

repeating the same question i'm just

waiting on the first answer

what did it smell like

[Music]

whoo i want to watch this with you

trump about to get off his plane i'm

going to go pour myself a glass of wine

omg this is [ __ ] terrifying

a victory by mr trump remains possible

mrs clinton's chance of losing is about

the same as the probability that an nfl

kicker misses a 38-yard field goal

yeah that's not good

happy election geekdom here

trump won north carolina

cnn projecting florida for trump

hillary clinton trying to create damn

voters won't listen because they're

stupid

and i'm moving to another country now a

historic moment that we can now project

and there it is international race cnn

projects donald trump

wins the presidency the business tycoon

tv personality

capping is a probable political journey

with an astounding

upset omg i am so depressed

honestly i don't know if i can eat

i'm very nauseous

god i'm really effing depressed

[Music]

having a really tough time with the

election this morning

i bought all the president's men

figure i need to brush up on watergate

meanwhile we have

our task ahead of us

[Music]

one thing that is going to suck about my

new job

[Music]

everybody's gonna know how late i get in

i'll direct everyone to take the tuesday

daytime

flight smiley face should i move my seat

next to yours

in maybe the most important case of our

lives

for me and this case i personally have a

sense of unfinished business

i unleashed it with clinton emails now i

need to fix

and finish it with director comey gone

and andy mccabe

leaving who says i get another promotion

from the deputy assistant director

[Music]

so look you say we text on that phone

when we talk about hillary because it

can't

be traced we should stop having this

conversation

here

god we're a good team i just think

we're both ready for a change truly it's

definitely true

pete let's talk about this tomorrow okay

bye lisa hope some sleep brings clarity

phone records and intercepted calls show

that members of donald j

trump's 2016 presidential campaign and

other trump associates

had repeated contacts with senior

russian intelligence officials

in the year before the election

notes to fbi we have not seen evidence

of any individuals affiliated with the

trump team in contact with russian

intelligence officials

officials said that one of the advisors

picked up on the calls was paul

manafort we

are unaware of any calls with any

russian government official in which

manafort

was a party

officials would not disclose which

russian intelligence officials were on

the calls

and how many of mr trump's advisors were

talking

to the russians again we are unaware of

all caps any trump advisors

engaging in conversations with russian

intelligence officials

[Applause]

[Music]

senior fbi officials believe that the

former british intelligence officer who

compiled the dossier

christopher steele has a credible track

record

fbi agents had made contact with some of

mr steele's sources

recent interviews and investigation

however

reveal steele may not be in a position

to judge the reliability of his

subsource

network but the cases are part of the

routine electronic surveillance of

communications

of foreign officials by american

intelligence and law enforcement

agencies

[Music]

our coverage

has not revealed contact between

russian officials and the trump team

[Applause]

[Music]

james clapper obama's director of

intelligence

step forward

you have to remember putin's background

he's a kgb officer it's what they do

they recruit assets

and that's what he's doing with our

president

in my view the evidence for russian

collusion

was overwhelming raise your hand under

oath

i never saw direct empirical evidence

that the trump campaign or someone in it

was plotting or conspiring with the

russians to meddle in the elections

andrew mccabe obama's deputy director of

the fbi

now cnn contributor there was a lot of

information that we could not disprove

in the steele dossier a fair amount of

information we knew to be accurate

under oath tell me the most damaging

thing that you know of

in this steel dossier that you have been

able to verify is true

sir i can't answer that question off the

top of my head the thing that

strengthens your ability to go before

the fisa court

and say we want to open this

investigation based on this

piece of information sir i can't give

that kind of detail

off the top of my head susan rice

obama's national security adviser what

president trump's motivations

are i think is a legitimate question but

the policies that this president has

pursued globally

have served vladimir putin's interests

raise your hand

under oath but was there anything

official that you saw in your capacity

in the prior administration that showed

actual coordination between the campaign

to interfere with or influence the 2016

election i don't recall intelligence

that i would consider evidence of

conspiracy all right

well i'll skip the next question then

we've done

conspire we've done coordinate

how about we do collude

same thing same answer yes

loretta lynch obama's attorney general

under oath did you receive any

information during your tenure as

attorney general

from anyone or anywhere that would show

a level of conspiracy

between the russian government and its

affiliates and the trump campaign

i don't recall that being briefed up to

me so i can't say that it existed or not

hi judicial watch president tom fitton i

hope you enjoyed the obama gate movie

which we were able to bring to you

thankfully in partnership

with the unreported story society

but what an ugly story it was in many

ways despite the comedy we were able to

bring to you here

with james comey peter strzok lisa page

john brennan all at the top levels of

our nation's government and all abusing

their power

to target president trump and other

innocent americans

it was the worst corruption scandal in

american history

the characters you saw in the movie were

really part of the supporting cast for

one man

barack obama he knew everything about

the obama gate targeting of president

trump he was running it out of the oval

office document show

in fact it's now just been reported that

he was brief

that the whole obama gate scam was

designed to protect

hillary clinton from the consequences of

her

email behavior so you had barack obama

hillary clinton and yes joe biden

intimately involved

in the illicit targeting of president

trump and other innocent americans and i

know you're frustrated that they frankly

even haven't been questioned yet

about their role in this the worst

corruption scandal in american history

but you can be sure that through this

movie

millions of additional americans will

know

about what they and their appointees and

hangers on we're up to and you can be

sure that judicial watch will continue

to do the heavy lifting

to hold them accountable through the

courts

and through the court of public opinion

as we educate

more americans and litigate for more

documents

about what this coup cabal was up to the

obama gate movie is a marriage of

art and reality and frankly i think you

owe it to your fellow americans

to share the movie and encourage them to

watch it

and encourage their friends to watch it

because

we will never hold these corrupt

individuals accountable

if no one knows what they did

this movie documents for the ages the

corruption of the obama era

and hopefully the next movie will show

how this gang

was held accountable thank you
