‘We Can’t Take That Risk’ — FBI Officials Discussed ‘Insurance Policy’ Against Trump Presidency
"Two FBI officials who worked on Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s
Russia investigation exchanged text messages last year in which they
appear to have discussed ways to prevent Donald Trump from being elected
president.
“I want to believe the path you threw out for consideration in Andy’s
office — that there’s no way [Trump] gets elected — but I’m afraid we
can’t take that risk,” FBI counterintelligence official Peter Strzok
wrote in a cryptic text message to Lisa Page, an FBI lawyer and his
mistress.
“It’s like an insurance policy in the unlikely event you die before you’re 40,” Strzok wrote in the text, dated Aug. 15, 2016.
Andy is likely Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe."
