FBI Agent Peter Strzok admitted in a text message to FBI lawyer Lisa Page that they initiated an investigation into “Russian collusion” as an insurance policy to take the president down in the unlikely
event that Donald J. Trump would win the 2016 Presidential election. As a result,
our nation has been torn apart for over two years by a witch hunt that the FBI
had no just cause to initiate. The Mueller Report just confirmed
this point. No American colluded with the Russians.
Almost two years ago, FBI Commissioner
Comey told the President that he was not the subject of the Russian
investigation. Mr. Comey knew there was no just cause to include the President
in the investigation. The President requested that Mr. Comey tell the American people these facts. Mr. Comey refused noting that Congress knew the facts. Frustrated
with the suspicion being cast on the legitimacy of his election, President
Trump fired Mr. Comey.
Then, Mr. Comey purchased reinsurance by
illegally leaking a government document to the media. Mr. Comey admitted to
this illegal leaking in Congressional testimony. He further admitted that his
purpose was to cause a Special Counsel to be appointed. Mr. Comey knows how the
FBI works and that a deep dive into almost anyone’s life would uncover
something that would not be flattering. More importantly, he knew the President’s temperament
and most likely thought the President would fall into a perjury trap (a trusted
FBI tactic). The reinsurance policy was a sting orchestrated by FBI Commissioner
Comey at the expense of the American people. Now, many Americans are concerned
that our President tried to obstruct justice by impeding an investigation that
the President knew (and Mueller confirmed) was a witch hunt. Who would impede
an investigation that would prove them innocent?
This is not to say that the President
acted professionally. He did not. He may have tried pushing some incorrect buttons but was rebuffed
by his staff. That is a stain on his character. The fact that he allowed his
staff to steer him clear is a sign that he accepted their advice. Donald J.
Trump is Donald J. Trump. The American people knew that when they elected him.
Twenty-two months, thirty-million-dollars,
and unprecedented division between Americans that has shifted Congress’ focus
from solving America’s problems to partisan sniping. Thank you, Mr. Comey, your
illegally initiated sting operation is now being taken up by the Congress. It
appears America’s problems will have to wait years longer. God help those in
need of affordable health care. God help those vulnerable migrants on our
southern border. God help our border patrol agents being imperiled by Congress’
lack of action. Sorry, but Congress has no time for you at this point. For now,
the sting continues. And, the sting is king.
