Newly released texts between an FBI lawyer and an agent who was once part of Robert Mueller's special counsel team show that then-President Barack Obama was apparently keeping tabs on the agency's investigation into the Hillary Clinton email scandal.

The texts were released as part of a report prepared by Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee Chairman Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., titled, "The Clinton Email Scandal And The FBI's Investigation Of It."

One set of texts released with the report — between Peter Strzok, one of the top FBI agents who was assigned to the Mueller investigation, and Lisa Page, an FBI lawyer — revealed the FBI employees had been tasked with preparing talking points for then-FBI Director James Comey because Obama apparently wanted to be kept abreast of the case.

In one Sept. 2, 2016, text exchange between Strzok and Page — who were romantically involved — Page writes that she was preparing the talking points because "potus wants to know everything we're doing." Potus is an acronym for president of the United States.

The report says that "this text raises additional questions about the type and extent of President Obama's personal involvement in the Clinton email scandal and the FBI investigation of it."

It adds that other questions that "deserve further examination," including, "Whether, and the extent to which, any personal animus and/or political bias influenced the FBI's investigation; Whether, and the extent to which, the Obama Department of Justice or White House influenced the FBI's investigation; and Whether, and the extent to which, any personal animus and/or political bias."
