A few more texts from FBI agent Peter Strzok have come out that don’t look good for him. The first one is where he texted his FBI girlfriend and referred to the Russia Probe as an investigation leading to impeachment after Mueller had been made special prosecutor and before he joined the team:
FBI texts that stand out: Peter Strzok says he has "a sense of unfinished business" that was "unleashed" by the Clinton email case. "Now I need to fix it" Strzok says. Later, he calls the Russia probe "an investigation leading to impeachment" BEFORE he has joined the Mueller team pic.twitter.com/3aFifIoQ73

With that tweet she included the raw text of the texts (click to enlarge):
Notice in that first text block Strzok refers to “MYE”. That is apparently the FBI’s code name for the Clinton email investigation.
This next one is interesting, only because Strzok felt that the Russia probe would come up with nothing substantial on Trump. But apparently he joined anyway:
Strzok also appears to say he doesn't personally believe the FBI will find anything related to collusion. Says "I hesitate" to take the spot on Mueller's team "in part because of my gut sense and concern there's no big there there." pic.twitter.com/uH3VaAS1BW

Here’s another text exchange from 2016 just after Cruz dropped out that really demonstrates their desire to help Clinton get past the email case:
It’s no wonder Mueller dumped Strzok when these came out.
Now if the FBI can only get back those texts that they somehow ‘lost’. I think we’d all like to see what those are about.
