Well, now, isn’t this interesting?

Anti-Trump FBI agent Peter Strzok, the agent initially in charge of investigating Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server during the 2016 campaign, may have been responsible for a major screw-up toward the end of his investigation.

Fox News has the details:

During the final months of the Clinton email investigation, FBI agent Peter Strzok was advised of an irregularity in the metadata of Hillary Clinton’s server that suggested a possible breach, but there was no significant follow up, according to two sources with knowledge of the matter.

Sources told Fox News that Strzok, who sent anti-Trump text messages that got him removed from the ongoing Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe, was told about the metadata anomaly in 2016, but Strzok did not support a formal damage assessment.

One source said: “Nothing happened.”

Wait, nothing happened?

For months, we’ve been bombarded with claims that Hillary’s illegal use of a home brew email server was no big deal. But then we were told it was an act of war that Russia hacked the DNC servers, only to release compromising information about Hillary Clinton’s campaign and the furtive effort to undermine the candidacy of Bernie Sanders.

During his statement letting Hillary off the hook for her crooked server, former FBI Director James Comey admitted that “hostile actors gained access to the private commercial e-mail accounts of people with whom Secretary Clinton was in regular contact from her personal account.”

Gee, that sure sounds worrisome. So why didn’t Strzok come forward earlier with this information? Why did he not look further into a breach of Clinton’s private and illegal server?

We already know that Strzok was vehemently anti-Trump during the campaign, and badly wanted Hillary to be president. He even went as far as to alter language on Comey’s report of Clinton’s activities to read as “extremely careless”rather than “grossly negligent,” which comes with attendant criminal charges. Perhaps there is a connection?

What do you think? Why did Strzok not follow up on this breach, which could have put national security in danger? Tell us your thoughts below!
