"Soliciting foreigners to dig up dirt to open investigations into a political rival?



"That’s not what happened on President Trump’s innocent congratulatory phone call with the president of Ukraine. But it is what President Obama did in the summer of 2016 when he turned the Federal Bureau of Investigation into an arm of the Hillary Clinton campaign.

…



"'Damn this feels momentous,' Strzok said when the FBI began probing Hillary Clinton’s political rival. 'Because this matters. The other one did, too, but that was to ensure that we didn’t F something up. This matters because this MATTERS.'

…



"Sounds like something Strzok, the FBI’s lead Russia investigator, would say. He certainly agreed. A Trump presidency? 'We’ll stop it,' Strzok assured Page.

…



"It’s not as if Carter Page was an unknown entity to the FBI. He had helped the bureau charge three Russians for spying related charges back in 2015. That didn’t matter once his name appeared on a list of foreign policy advisors to the Trump campaign. He became a target of anti-Trump operators inside and outside the Obama administration, his civil rights be damned.
