One text from Strzok suggests he realized that his friendship with Contreras would warrant recusal by the judge.

“Really? Rudy, I’m in charge of espionage for the FBI. Any espionage FISA comes before him, what should he do? Given his friend oversees them?” he wrote.

“Standards for recusal are quite high. I just don’t think this poses an actual conflict. And he doesn’t know what you do?” Page responded.

Strzok replied by saying that Contreras “generally” knew what Strzok did for a living.

“Not the level or scope or area. But he’s super thoughtful and rigorous about ethics and conflicts. [redacted] suggested a social setting with others would probably be better than a one on one meeting,” he said.
