Peter Strzok's Role In Clinton Email Investigation Takes A Sinister Turn ​



The drafting process was a team effort, CNN is told, with a handful of people reviewing the language as edits were made, according to another US official familiar with the matter.

The shift from "grossly negligent" to "extremely careless," which may appear pedestrian at first glance, reflected a decision by the FBI that could have had potentially significant legal implications, as the federal law governing the mishandling of classified material establishes criminal penalties for "gross negligence."

CNN has also learned that Strzok was the FBI official who signed the document officially opening an investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election, according to sources familiar with the matter.

By Rick Moran December 5, 2017Former FBI counter-intelligence expert Peter Strzok, demoted by Robert Mueller following a series of anti-Trump texts to his mistress, was the individual responsible for changing the wording in Director Comey's statement on Hillary Clinton's handling of classified information from "grossly negligent" to "extremely careless."That single change probably kept Hillary Clinton out of jail.It has also been revealed that Strzok was the FBI agent who interviewed both Cheryl Mills and Huma Abedin, Hillary Clinton's two top aides. Mills and Abedin made misleading statements to the FBI in that interview but went unpunished.That a demonstrably partisan investigator has been at the center of an investigation that could lead to the impeachment of a president of the United States makes it impossible for Robert Mueller to claim that his investigation is unbiased and independent.First, Strzok giving Clinton a "get out of jail" edit to Comey's statement.[**Snip**]It "makes sense" now.Abedin and Mills lied through their teeth because if they told the truth, they both feared getting caught up in Hillary's legal troubles. They might have gone to jail themselves if Strzok hadn't changed the language in Comey's recommendation.Even if you buy the narrative that all of this isn't "evidence," but rather "supposition," the appearance of impropriety is overwhelming. Don't you think we deserve a lot more from a special counsel charged with the extraordinary task of investigating a president for impeachable offenses?Source:~~~~Hmm....., instead of 'Russian Collusion', it is becoming quite apparent that the real collusion was at the FBI and it's even more apparent that Robert Mueller was in particular hired to cover up the collusion and criminal malfeasance within the FBI.We are now very aware that Obama institutionalized corruption at every agency of government, within every level of government. This is why it was so vital to clean house with wholesale firings at every level and in every agency. This is my biggest disappointment with Trump so far. It's not too late to act, but this requires strong, decisive and large scale action instead of the half-ass measures taken so far.The corruption began January 21, 2009 and never stopped until January 20, 2017. Obama filled the alphabet agencies with his fellow travelers. Now they're embedded like ticks in the IRS, EPA, DoJ, the FBI including the CIA, DIA, NSC, etc...
