DOJ's Inspector General says in a new report that it couldn't review text messages Peter Strzok and Lisa Page may have sent while they worked for the special counsel because by the time they asked, the devices had been re-issued to other agents.
The IG also says it's "unlikely" that Strzok or Page had anything to do with the fact that the FBI's system for collecting text messages didn't capture some of theirs. The FBI had a lot of problems collecting messages from some Samsung phones.
As of November, the Inspector General says the FBI still was unable to capture text messages from "approximately 10% of the mobile devices then in service."
The report: oig.justice.gov/reports/2018/i…

Fascinating story from @ganjansen: Courts grappling with what to make of President Trump's tweets have largely concluded that just because the president says something, even on matters of national security, that doesn't make it so.
usatoday.com/story/news/pol…
The courts' conclusions – that the president’s statements on national security are not always to be taken literally, or to be trusted – are legal victories for his Justice Department, which has argued that there's no evidence he knows what he's talking about.
As President @realDonaldTrump tweets, his administration has been telling federal courts not to take his public comments at face value. For example ->

Lawyers for a Russian company charged over election complain that "the Special Counsel has made up a crime that has never been prosecuted before in the history of the United States, and now seeks to make up secret procedures for communicating ex parte to the court."
Lawyers for the Russian company - who are seeking permission to share "sensitive" gov't info with the Russians wonder: "Could the manner in which [Mueller] collected a nude selfie really threaten the national security of the United States?"
Also, apparently, among the millions of pages of records Mueller's has collected on Russian election interference is a "nude selfie."

Elon Musk's lawyers say that when he falsely calls someone a pedophile on Twitter, that's just an "imaginative attack," protected by the First Amendment, so he can't be sued.
Musk's lawyers also say that everybody reading his tweets knew that he was making things up. And besides, they were tweets and not a Boston Globe expose or a "university press conference," so what did you really expect?

Flynn Sentencing Memo Outlines the Set-up Created by Andrew McCabe... theconservativetreehouse.com/2018/12/11/fly… via @thelastrefuge2
♦February 14th, 2017, text messages –Peter Strzok asks Lisa Page if FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe is OK with his report: “Also, is Andy good with F-302?”

Lisa Page replies: “Launch on F 302”.

That would be Flynn’s 302.
The FBI interpretation of the Flynn interview, is now the way the FBI can control the interview content…. and, specifically because the only recourse Flynn would have to contradict that FBI interpretation would be to compromise the Vice President…

New July 2016 texts between Peter Strzok and Lisa Page show a troubling reference to former FBI Director James Comey potentially intervening in the 2016 election
July 28, 2016: Text from Lisa Page to Peter Strzok, citing this article (bit.ly/2hO27Er): “Ha. First line made me smile”

The first line of that article? --“Potentially unpleasant news for Jim Comey: We need you to intervene in the 2016 election again”
To be clear: these are two high level FBI agents who appear to be discussing/laughing about the FBI Director potentially getting involved in the 2016 election--just days after the "Russia investigation" into the Trump campaign had begun.

The timeline here is concerning.

THREAD--explaining the context around the Peter Strzok/Lisa Page text messages, and why they're connected to both the Hillary investigation and this so-called "Russian-collusion" investigation
Remember the key figure here: Peter Strzok, the former deputy of counter-intelligence at the FBI. Guy who ran the 2016 Clinton investigation, who interviewed key witnesses including Cheryl Mills, Huma Abedin, and Hillary Clinton. Former Mueller team member. Strzok is the guy here
We have all these anti-Trump texts in 2016 from Peter Strzok, talking about an "insurance policy" in case Trump gets elected President. We have texts from Strzok to Lisa Page saying "We can't take the risk" Trump wins the Presidency. By itself, that's a huge problem.

1. OK, lets take a deep breath and look at the full scope of the last 48 hours. Yes, things are coming rapidly to a head.
2. There have been multiple reports today that build upon the larger story.
3. Yesterday we focused attention to the years-long DOJ Office of Inspector General investigation and how it appeared to be coming to a conclusion. oig.justice.gov/press/2017/201…
