Lisa Page opens up about controversial texts

Former FBI lawyer Lisa Page joined The Rachel Maddow Show for her first televised interview since leaving the bureau last year. Page and FBI agent Peter Strzok were thrust into the national spotlight when text messages between the two during the 2016 campaign were leaked to the press by the Department of Justice, including one that mentions an “insurance policy” if then-candidate Trump were to be elected, which has consistently been used by President Trump and his allies to claim bias in the Russia investigation. But on Tuesday night, page set the record straight.
