Remember that time when the FBI handed out immunity agreements to Hillary Clinton aides and then deleted their hard drives containing classified materials? This is kind of like that and the inevitable coda to the case.
Yes there are ideologues in the federal government, but few of these people would be willing to put their careers on the line unless they were assured that the Dems would have their backs.
And who better to serve as test cases than Peter Strzok and Lisa Page?
When I last checked in with the lovebirds last year, they were doing pretty well.
Despite being fired from the FBI, the disgraced former agent got a book deal, “Compromised: Counterintelligence and the Threat of Donald J. Trump” as well as co-hosting a podcast with ‘Mueller, She Wrote’s Allison Gill and scoring an adjunct professorship at Georgetown University.
Strzok and fellow agent Lisa Page, with whom he had an affair, are suing for wrongful termination from the FBI, and they’ve been fighting to depose former President Trump.
Their former boss, FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe secured a settlement for his benefits including back pay from the Biden Justice Department. There’s little doubt that Attorney General Merrick Garland will eventually arrange for a settlement as a reward for Strzok and Page.
And there’s the settlement.
The Justice Department has reached its expected settlement via a tentative agreement. The timing is nigh perfect as the elections draws near and more trials approach. The messaging is pretty clear to any DOJ or FBI figures. Even if they get made examples out of, the system will step in to protect them and reward them.
So go ahead. Have fun. Go after our political enemies and we’ll take care of you.
With an anticipated Trump administration on the horizon, you can bet the message has been received in D.C.
Buddy the Cat Meow says
Strzok and Page opened themselves up to compromise by having the extramarital affair. That should have cost them their security clearances, which should have led to their dismissal. That would not have been wrongful termination.
Now, I don’t know the actual reason they were fired, but they should have kept their hands off each other. And I honestly don’t get what she saw in him anyway.
goob says
She saw him to be the world’s biggest prick. A turn-on for FBI agents I am told.

Am presently reading Dick Morris’ “Corrupt,” about the entire Biden family. The completely disheartening corruption in DC just goes on and on. Naive fool that I was, I used to believe that this kind of thing just didn’t happen in America, at least not to this extent.
Domenic Pepe says
How come every time I see a photo of FBI agent Peter Strzok and fellow agent Lisa Page
I feel like wringing their necks ?
This is an important theological question that the Supreme Court and the Pope should consider.
Jeff Bargholz says
I’m with you on that one. They have preeminently punchable faces. I’d like to kick them, actually. Assuming this old man can still lift my foot that high.

The only fix is for President Trump to get back in the White House and clean up these agencies as well as prosecute these treasonous demons who have disrupted and destroyed USA to where we are barely holding on. I do not think President Trump will be found guilty. The jury has seen a shit show being played out before them. The horror of demonic lying witnesses and porn actress whores, well they are all whores of satan!
Domenic Pepe says
I believe you are correct.
These trials against Trump are a travesty of justice.
Chris Shugart says
This is getting to look more and more like Chicago of the 1930’s. Everyone is on the take, and everyone has a politician in their pocket. Why do they do it? Because they can. It’s no more complicated than that. But there’s a flaw within govt corruption. It creates rivalries. Personal agendas differ, as do priorities, which often results in someone getting rubbed out. (Ask the Clintons) There’s no honor among thieves.
Spurwing Plover says
These Show Trials again Trump these Kangaroo Courts and Witch Hunt just more Globalists stuff we have to put up with the ICC is a Crime Against Humanity
Old Fogey says
There is another settlement awaiting Strzok and Page in future. It will last for all of eternity. Word has it that the lake of fire is much less pleasant than anything they have experienced to dat.
Jeff Bargholz says
A lake of fire. That does seem pretty bad. Fuck that shit.
BLSinSC says
No wonder he was so smug during his testimonies – he KNEW he would be taken care of by the OTHER corrupt scum! We need one of those El Salvador style PRISONS for the corrupt scum in our Government!!

This is very scary, I have read about why some Chinese dynasties fall like the Ming.
Things are bad in China and there is an uprising. A leader is charismatic and capable or becomes so while over throwing the old corrupt dynasty. The new leader gets things done, so far so good.
Then junior is born. The mandarins, aka ancient Chinese deep state, Argue that junior the you ng heir apparent would be at risk if he campaigned with the the emperor.. So by the time the grandson is born, the grandson never goes out on campaign or provide relief for famine victims etc. The deep state does that. the grandson and follow on emperors have nothing to do except stay cloistered while performing mumbo jumbo ceremonies and partaking of the harem. the emperors become worthless. and the state eventually falls.,
If the mandarins are that freaking good how come the dynasty falls. The mandarins or deep state does not prevent a fall and especially so when the titular head of the empire cannot reform them,
Dynasties usually or system doe not last longer than about 200 years. The Han dynasties dd not. The Qing was exceptional but the last almost 100 years it was limping along.
If you look up the roman Empire it can be divided into 2 two hundred year period. (before and after Diocletian.
Historians divide up the US political system int several periods. Just because the Us is intact geographically does not mean it is still a democracy. And just because it is currently geographically intact except for the border in the last 3 year does not mean the Deep state will keep it that way. They are not as competent as they thing they are.
Who will be the new Alaric and match on DC (R0me)? Probably some illegal.
Onzeur Trante says
The “lovebirds” is too kind a description. They were and remain emblematic of everything that is f’ed up about the FBI.
