A whistleblower has revealed to Congress that clandestine, offsite meetings between high ranking FBI and DOJ took place in which officials discussed ways to undermine President Trump after the 2016 election, Rep. Ron Johnson (R-WI) told Fox News on Tuesday.
The bombshell revelation all but confirms a “secret society” alluded to in text messages released last Friday between two anti-Trump FBI employees tasked with investigating both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.
“The secret society — we have an informant talking about a group holding secret meetings off-site,” Johnson said.
“We have to continue to dig into it,” he added. “This is not a distraction. This is biased, potentially corruption at the highest levels of the FBI.” –The Hill

On Monday night, Reps. John Ratcliffe (R-TX) and Trey Gowdy (R-SC) told Fox News of the “secret society” texts between FBI investigators Peter Strzok and Lisa Page – contained within a 384-page batch of text messages delivered to Congress from the DOJ last Friday. Of note Ratcliffe says that Strzok and Page were included in the clandestine anti-Trump cabal at the highest levels of the American intelligence community.

What we learned today in the thousands of text messages that weve reviewed that perhaps they may not have done that (checked their bias at the door). There’s certainly a factual basis to question whether or not they acted on that bias. We know about this insurance policy that was referenced in trying to prevent Donald Trump from becoming president.
We learned today from information that in the immediate aftermath of his election that there may have been a secret society of folks within the Department of Justice and the FBI to include Page and Strzok to be working against him.
As part of the 384 page document delivery, the Department of Justice notified Congressional investigators that five months of text messages from December 14, 2016 to May 17, 2017 have gone missing (ironically there is a text message about “not keeping texts” from last Friday’s release).
Where are the 50,000 important text messages between FBI lovers Lisa Page and Peter Strzok? Blaming Samsung!

And while Strzok and Page’s communications for five months after the election apparently won’t see the light of day, what we do know is that right before the election, Strzok and Page texted about an “insurance policy” against Donald Trump becoming President.
“I want to believe the path you threw out for consideration in Andy’s office – that there’s no way he [Trump] gets elected – but I’m afraid we can’t take that risk.” writes FBI counterintelligence officer Peter Strzok to FBI lawyer Lisa Page, with whom he was having an extramarital affair while spearheading both the Clinton email inquiry and the early Trump-Russia probe, adding “It’s like a life insurance policy in the unlikely event you die before you’re 40.”
Text-from Peter Strzok to Lisa Page (Andy is Andrew McCabe): "I want to believe the path u threw out 4 consideration in Andy'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 unlikely event u die be4 you're 40"

To recap: we now have text messages between Strzok and Page referencing an “insurance policy” and a “secret society” of people within the DOJ and FBI who came together in the “immediate aftermath” of the 2016 election to undermine President Trump… and a whistleblower who has now told Congress that’s exactly what happened in the form of secret, offsite meetings between officials at the two agencies.
Secret Service better put Trump in a box with holes in it until this is done. Would not let the FBI OR Just Us department near him.
I’m thinking you can be expecting an increasingly vigorous attack on Trump by Mueller to draw attention away from the anti Trump deep state conspiracies and discredit those trying to push against them.
He has his own private security detail in addition to the Secret Service. I’m sure knowing what he does that he wasn’t about to leave his protection to only a government agency
In addition to Secret Service the President has bodyguards who are supposedly all former Tier 1 operators. Trump is no fool.
NPR This morning.
Start by impugning Nunes. The memo is a hit piece against the FBI.
So the battle will be over the messenger.
When you can’t battle the message, what else is there to be attacking other than the messenger?
At least National Predator Radio covered it. This is going to be an even bigger shock to their audience than the revelation that Charlie Rose, Garrison Keillor and half the executives at NPR were sexual degenerates of the hetero kind.
From senior FBI employee to WalMart security guard. Ouch.
What! Our federal law enforcement people are corrupt. How can that be?
Practice
Why, oh why doesn’t President Trump fire everybody at the FBI, NSA, DOJ,CIA, etc., and hire all new people LOYAL TO HIM?!?!?! That’s what he needs to do. Why doesn’t he do it???
Cause that’s the stupid question of the day!
There are too many obstacles, both legal and political, in the way to just do that firing of them outright, he needs to be very careful about how he goes about it if he tries it.
“Why, oh why doesn’t President Trump….”
Because it has to be done by the book. A thorough investigation must be done, charges filed, trial, conviction, then severe penalty to make an example of these people. Gonna take time but it is underway. We are still in the discovery phase.
More and more, this stuff is looking like sedition and treason. Gitmo is on order for these folks. I sincerely hope all these revelations aren’t going to end in more useless and endless investigations in which nobody even gets a hand slap. They lock up us peons for FAR less.
What’s really got to be causing a sinking feeling in the conspirators stomachs is Senator Johnson revealing Congress has an informant.
I wouldn’t be surprised to read of some suicides at the FBI/DoJ now. These careerists have nothing if they lose their Federal pensions and a 2nd career as a beltway bandit. Being 50 years old, unemployed and unemployable doesn’t leave many options.
They can be news correspondents like snuffiluffugus and dickmorris.
I’m shocked I tell you. It is so hard to believe that those lying, conspiratorial, communist sons of bitches are colluding with each other to advance their agenda.
“Too Big To Believe” – Massive Scandal Is Brewing At The FBI
by Tyler Durden
Wed, 01/24/2018 – 11:30
As the Potemkin Village walls of The Left’s ‘Trump Collusion’ narrative crash and burn along with special counsel Mueller’s credibility, The New York Post’s Michael Goodwin sees far more wide-ranging problems ahead for America’s ‘intelligence’ agencies as the anti-Trump ‘secret society’ and lovers-texts-gate debacles threaten the core of the Deep State.
Goodwin writes that, during the financial crisis, the federal government bailed out banks it declared “too big to fail.” Fearing their bankruptcy might trigger economic Armageddon, the feds propped them up with taxpayer cash.
Something similar is happening now at the FBI, with the Washington wagons circling the agency to protect it from charges of corruption. This time, the appropriate tag line is “too big to believe.”
Reports Say Anti-Trump Texts Got An FBI Agent Pulled From Russia Probe
Yet each day brings credible reports suggesting there is a massive scandal involving the top ranks of America’s premier law enforcement agency. The reports, which feature talk among agents of a “secret society” and suddenly missing text messages, point to the existence both of a cabal dedicated to defeating Donald Trump in 2016 and of a plan to let Hillary Clinton skate free in the classified email probe.
If either one is true — and I believe both probably are — it would mean FBI leaders betrayed the nation by abusing their powers in a bid to pick the president.
More support for this view involves the FBI’s use of the Russian dossier on Trump that was paid for by the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee. It is almost certain that the FBI used the dossier to get FISA court warrants to spy on Trump associates, meaning it used the opposition research of the party in power to convince a court to let it spy on the candidate of the other party — likely without telling the court of the dossier’s political link.
Even worse, there is growing reason to believe someone in President Barack Obama’s administration turned over classified information about Trump to the Clinton campaign.
As one former federal prosecutor put it, “It doesn’t get worse than that.” That prosecutor, Joseph diGenova, believes Trump was correct when he claimed Obama aides wiretapped his phones at Trump Tower.
These and other elements combine to make a toxic brew that smells to high heaven, but most Americans don’t know much about it. Mainstream media coverage has been sparse and dismissive and there’s a blackout from the same Democrats obsessed with Russia, Russia, Russia.
Partisan motives aside, it’s as if a scandal of this magnitude is more than America can bear — so let’s pretend there’s nothing to see and move along.
But, thankfully the disgraceful episode won’t be washed away, thanks to a handful of congressional Republicans, led by California Rep. Devin Nunes, chairman of the House’s Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. After he accused the FBI of stonewalling in turning over records, the bureau relented, at least partially.
The result was clear evidence of bias against Trump by officials charged with investigating him and Clinton. Those same agents appear to have acted on that bias to tilt the election to Clinton.
In one text message, an agent suggests that Attorney General Loretta Lynch knew while the investigation was still going on that the FBI would not recommend charges against Clinton.
How could she know unless the fix was in?
All roads in the explosive developments lead to James Comey, whose Boy Scout image belied a sinister belief that he, like his infamous predecessor J. Edgar Hoover, was above the law.
It is why I named him J. Edgar Comey last year and wrote that he was “adept at using innuendo and leaks” to let everybody in Washington know they could be the next to be investigated.
It was in the office of Comey’s top deputy, Andrew McCabe, where agents discussed an “insurance policy” in the event that Trump won. Reports indicated that the Russia-collusion probe was that insurance policy.
The text was from Peter Strzok, the top investigator on the Trump case, and was sent to Lisa Page, an FBI lawyer and also his mistress.
“I want to believe the path you threw out for consideration in Andy’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 . . . ” Strzok wrote.
It is frightening that Strzok, who called Trump “an idiot,” was the lead investigator on both the Clinton and Trump cases.
After these messages surfaced, special counsel Robert Mueller removed Strzok and Page from his probe, though both still work at the FBI.
Strzok, despite his talk of an “insurance policy” in 2016, wrote in May of 2017 that he was skeptical Mueller’s probe would find anything on Trump because “there’s no big there there.”
Talk about irony. While Dems and the left-wing media already found Trump guilty of collusion before Mueller was appointed, the real scandal might be the conduct of the probers themselves.
Suspicions are hardly allayed by the fact that the FBI says it can’t find five months of messages between Strzok and Page, who exchanged an estimated 50,000 messages overall. The missing period — Dec. 14, 2016 through May 17, 2017 — was a crucial time in Washington.
There were numerous leaks of classified material just before and after Trump’s inauguration on Jan. 20.
And the president fired Comey last May 9, provoking an intense lobbying effort for a special counsel, which led to Mueller’s appointment on May 19.
Jeff Sessions, the attorney general, has emerged from his hidey hole to notice that the FBI has run amok, and said Monday he would “leave no stone unturned” to find the five months of missing texts.
Fine, but the House is racing ahead of him. Nunes has prepared a four-page memo, based on classified material that purportedly lays out what the FBI and others did to corrupt the election.
A movement to release the memo is gaining steam, but Congress says it might take weeks. Why wait? Americans can handle the truth, no matter how big it is.
So whatsup with that memo?
Maybe this

Evidence suggests a massive scandal is brewing at the FBI
By Michael Goodwin
January 23, 2018 | 9:37pm
WTF is going on with Sessions? WTH isn’t he cleaning house at Just Us?
Maybe he is, things seem to be coming out that have been hidden before.
Most people are unaware of the facts about the “Watergate” scandal. There was both much more and much less to this “scandal”than “meets the eye”.
Yes, there were the Watergate “plumbers” who broke into the DemocRAT National Headquarters, BUT, the primary reason for bringing President Nixon down was the fact that he appointed L. Patrick Gray as FBI director. “Deep throat” was none other than Mark Felt, who was next in line for FBI director but was rebuffed by Nixon. When L. Patrick Gray was appointed instead of Felt, the “game was on”.
The “mainstream media”, even then, being in the pockets of the DemocRAT party saw this as a way to destroy the Republican Party. They were “licking their chops” on getting “dirt” on the Republicans.
Q has repeatedly said “WE HAVE IT ALL” and “NOTHING IS EVER ERASED”. They are letting these worms twist and turn trying to extricate themselves and watching to see who else is involved. The more they lie and deceive the more charges/counts will be racked up against them. These people are going down…..probably for life at minimum and for those guilty of treason……”DEATH” as Q has said.
It has to play out slowly enough for the sheople to play along at home so as not to panic the herd when they see those who promised “eternal social utopia” going down. Things will probably pick up speed as time goes on but the herd needs to be acclimatized to the new normal first.
IS, thx for trying yet again, to explain why it will take time to build rock solid cases with good evidence, and rounding up more guilty parties.
By my count, you have said this no less than a half dozen times to turn a light bulb on for the impatient ‘Yeah, buts…” and skeptics who are frustrated and want to see action. Now!
I was questioned by the feds in a conspiracy charge brought against a dozen people. 9 copped a plea for reduced sentence, ratting out others. I knew 1 of 3 that fought the charges. It took 2 years to come together. As the trial date got closer, the feds turned up the heat on anyone who knew the ones who chose to fight the charges. Threats of perjury, and lies that others refuted my answers were common. I never testified, and the 1 I knew was found guilty by a jury, influenced by aggressive fed prosecuting attorneys.
All that culminated 24 months after the initial arrests, and after a long investigation.
The scope of all what Q has dropped is WAY more complex than what I just described.
The good guys have an army of people working on this. But it must be by the rule of law, if it is to be restored. Patience, bitches. Patience.
From what I read today at a couple other websites, they are trying to keep a lid on this because at those secret meeting with senior FBI agents, they were talking about doing a JFK on Trump. Hence, all the sad faces from McCabe, Strzok, et.al
It seems to all make sense now…and makes sense why the FBI “lost” allot of the text messages
The latest from Q:

The 5-month batch of missing texts was found.
This may very well mean nothing, I have been being electronically harassed since June, when my phone and accounts were hacked and disabled after disconnecting from WiFi. Now, chanting coming from the highway is chanting,” the stock market crashed.” Dow futures have triple topped, and started heading south. S&P and NASDAQ futures south bound as well. It may mean absolutely nothing. Time will tell.
