Attorney: Ex-FBI lawyer Page won't show for House interview

MARY CLARE JALONICK and ERIC TUCKER,Associated Press

WASHINGTON (AP) — An attorney for former FBI lawyer Lisa Page says she will not appear for a private interview Wednesday with two House committees, despite a subpoena.

Page's lawyer says she didn't have enough time to prepare and had asked the House Judiciary and Oversight and Government Reform Committees to schedule another date. Because they would not, "Lisa is not going to appear for an interview at this time," Amy Jeffress said in a statement Tuesday evening.

The committees are interested in Page as part of their investigation into what they say is bias at the Justice Department. Page exchanged text messages critical of Donald Trump with FBI agent Peter Strzok, who will testify publicly before the panel Thursday. Page and Strzok both worked on the FBI investigation into Democrat Hillary Clinton's emails and, later, special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia investigation.

House Judiciary Chairman Robert Goodlatte said Page has known for months that the panel has sought her testimony, and the committee will use "all tools at our disposal" to obtain it. If a witness does not respond to a subpoena, the full House can vote to hold her in contempt of Congress.

"It appears that Lisa Page has something to hide," Goodlatte said.

House Republicans have suggested the FBI was conspiring against Trump during and after his presidential campaign, and the two committees are investigating decisions made by the agency and the Justice Department during the 2016 presidential election.

The Judiciary committee issued a subpoena Saturday for Page to appear Wednesday, according to Jeffress. She suggested on Monday that it was still unclear whether Page would appear, saying in a statement that they were "still waiting to work out a reasonable date" for the interview and waiting on documents from the FBI to prepare. On Tuesday, Jeffress said she and Page had gone to the FBI to review the materials, "but after waiting for more than three hours, we were not provided with any documents."

The Judiciary and Oversight panels have already spent much of the summer holding hearings and interviews critical of the FBI and Justice Department. Democrats have strongly objected to the GOP-led investigation, saying it is an attempt to undermine Mueller's probe and sway public opinion against investigators.

The committees have focused much of their ire on Strzok, who was interviewed privately by lawmakers on the two committees for 11 hours June 27. He will return to Capitol Hill for the hearing Thursday, the first time he will speak publicly about the messages.
Strzok had a leading role in the Clinton probe and was removed from the Mueller investigation after the texts were discovered a year ago. Page had already left the Mueller team.

A report by the Justice Department's internal watchdog released last month detailed the inflammatory texts between the two, including an exchange in which Strzok wrote "we'll stop it" in reference to a potential Trump election win. The report did not find that the conclusions in the Clinton investigation were tainted by political bias.

The Judiciary Committee also held a contentious hearing June 28 with FBI Director Christopher Wray and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. In the hearing, Republicans angrily accused the officials of withholding documents from them and demanded details about surveillance tactics in the Russia investigation.

I have to agree. If possible, throw her in jail until she testifies. Even if she invokes the 5th, nobody cares for her. She's a homebreaker and a traitor.

Its being reported that despite what Lisa Page claims, she and her lawyer did go over to the FBI and the FBI provided the documents for review that they asked for.

I don't understand why the FBI didn't employ her until her Congressional testimony. That way, she had to testify and she couldn't invoke the 5th.

as i read it, she took the easy way out the door by resigning. means nothing really if she refuses to appear she can be jailed for contempt. it appears she's had a change of heart and will appear tomorrow.

yeah.. that tends to happen unless you like jail food and orange "pantsuits".

bahahahahaaaa

some reporter dubbed Clinton as "Felonia Von Pantsuit"

perfect!
