Two FBI employees who

exchanged texts critical of Donald Trump during the 2016 election campaign

talked about a “secret society that would be working against” the president, two Republican lawmakers revealed.

FBI Agent Peter Strzok, who had been part of investigation into Hillary Clinton’s e-mail server and Russian meddling in the election, exchanged texts with his then-mistress, Lisa Page, an FBI lawyer.

Among the messages were references to a “secret society” within the agency and the Department of Justice, Reps. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) and John Ratcliffe (R-Texas) said on Fox News’ “The Story with Martha MacCallum” Monday night.

Meanwhile, FBI Director Christopher Wray said Tuesday that his chief-of-staff, who also had worked for ex-Director James Comey, is leaving, Fox News reported.

James Rybicki had helped Comey draft a statement clearing Clinton two months before Comey announced the end of the probe in July 2016.
