Strzok during his public testimony earlier this month.
Former FBI attorney Lisa Page has reportedly told a joint committee of the House of Representatives that when FBI counterintelligence official Peter Strzok texted her on May 19, 2017 saying there was "no big there there,"
he meant there was no evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.
It was clearly a bad-luck day for Strzok, when on Friday the 13
th this month Page gave her explanation of the text to the House Judiciary and Oversight/Government Reform Committees and in effect threw her lover, Strzok, under the bus.
Strzok's apparent admission to Page about there being "no big there there" was
reported on Friday by John Solomon in the Opinion section of
The Hill based on multiple sources who he said were present during Page's closed door interview.
Strzok's text did not come out of the blue. For the previous ten months he and his FBI subordinates had been trying every-which-way to ferret out some "there" - preferably a big "there" - but had failed miserably.
If Solomon's sources are accurate, it is appearing more and more likely that there was nothing left for them to do but to make it up out of whole cloth, with the baton then passed to special counsel Robert Mueller.
Comment: Moving the boundaries, stretching the limits...oh, right, Israel doesn't have any of these.
