On December 5, 2016 Strzok gave a false and misleading briefing to the House Intelligence Committee investigators into Hillary Clinton's ''Steele dossier''. House Intelligence Committee investigators were contacted by an informant suggesting that there was “documentary evidence” that Strzok was obstructing the House probe into the ''Steele dossier''.<ref>http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/12/12/texts-between-ex-mueller-team-members-emerge-calling-trump-loathsome-human-idiot.html</ref> On January 24, 2017, Strzok interviewed [[National Security Advisor]] Mike Flynn at the White House in what appears to be an [[entrapment]] sting.<ref>https://www.hannity.com/content/2017-12-04-exclusive-fbi-supervisor-booted-from-mueller-probe-interviewed-mike-flynn/</ref> In July 2017 the Inspector General (IG) reported on the existence of Strzok-Page texts. Special Counsel Robert Mueller finally fired Strzok from the [[Trump-Russia investigation]] for anti-Trump texts. His girlfriend Lisa Page was fired a month later. On December 7, 2017 the Judge who presided over former National Security Advisor [[Mike Flynn]]'s plea conviction abruptly recused himself from the sentencing phase. It was the same judge who heard the bogus FISA warrant requests based on Hillary Clinton's ''Steele dossier''.<ref>https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-russia-flynn/judge-presiding-over-michael-flynn-criminal-case-is-recused-court-idUSKBN1E202V</ref>

Strzok had given false and misleading information to the House Intelligence Committee's investigation into Hillary Clinton's ''Steele dossier'' shortly after the election. House Intelligence Committee investigators were contacted by a [[Whistleblower Statutes|whistleblower]] suggesting that there was “documentary evidence” that Strzok was obstructing the House probe into the dossier.<ref>http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/12/12/texts-between-ex-mueller-team-members-emerge-calling-trump-loathsome-human-idiot.html</ref> The ''Steele dossier'' had been used to obtain [[fruit of the poisonous tree]] evidence against [[National Security Advisor]] Mike Flynn. In January 2017 Strzok interviewed Flynn at the White House in what appears to be an [[entrapment]] sting using the falsified FISA evidence.<ref>https://www.hannity.com/content/2017-12-04-exclusive-fbi-supervisor-booted-from-mueller-probe-interviewed-mike-flynn/</ref> Flynn was later convicted of misleading Strzok, although Flynn later said he merely didn't recall minor details during the questioning. By midsummer the Inspector General (IG) reported on the existence of the Strzok-Page texts deemed prejudicial to the investigation. Special Counsel Robert Mueller finally fired Strzok from the [[Trump-Russia investigation]] for his blatantly anti-Trump texts. Strzok's girlfriend Lisa Page was fired a month later. After Flynn's conviction on a process charge the Judge who presided over former National Security Advisor [[Mike Flynn]]'s plea agreement abruptly recused himself from the sentencing phase when the FISA warrant abuses became more widely known. It was the same judge who heard the bogus FISA warrant requests based on Hillary Clinton's ''Steele dossier''.<ref>https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-russia-flynn/judge-presiding-over-michael-flynn-criminal-case-is-recused-court-idUSKBN1E202V</ref>
