President Trump unloaded on Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation in a tweet Wednesday, calling the probe “perhaps the most tainted and corrupt case EVER!”
Trump tweeted:
Ex-FBI LAYER Lisa Page today defied a House of Representatives issued Subpoena to testify before Congress! Wow, but is anybody really surprised! Together with her lover, FBI Agent Peter Strzok, she worked on the Rigged Witch Hunt, perhaps the most tainted and corrupt case EVER!

Trump has been a persistent critic of the Mueller investigation — which has been going on for well over a year now with no end in sight — despite the fact that thus far, the team has not presented any evidence of collusion.
However, the investigation has uncovered evidence that FBI agent Peter Strzok had an affair with FBI lawyer Lisa Page, and the two exchanged a number of text messages that show their deep anti-Trump bias.
In one message, Lisa Page said, “(Trump’s) not ever going to become president, right? Right?!” to which Strzok said, “No. No he’s not. We’ll stop it.” (RELATED: STRZOK: ‘We’ll Stop’ Trump Presidency)
