FULL TITLE Defiant Peter Strzok claims scrutiny over anti-Trump text messages 'another victory notch in Putin's belt'
A defiant Peter Strzok said the scrutiny he is facing over his anti-Trump text messages amounts to “just another victory notch in Putin's belt,” according to the FBI official's remarks prepared to be delivered before House committees Thursday morning.
Strzok, who arrived on Capitol Hill to testify in a public hearing before the House Judiciary Committee and House Oversight Committee Thursday morning, has been in political crosshairs for months over revelations of anti-Trump text messages exchanged with his lover, and former bureau colleague, Lisa Page.
Strzok will say in his opening statement that he has never allowed personal opinions to affect his work, that he knew information during the campaign that had the potential to damage then-candidate Donald Trump but never contemplated leaking it to the press, and that recent congressional focus on him is misguided and plays into “our enemies’ campaign to tear America apart.”
Strzok’s messages were first revealed by Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz. The latest text, which was revealed in the inspector general’s report on the FBI’s handling of the Clinton email investigation, showed Strzok vowing to “stop” Trump from becoming president.

Another win for Putin in the made up Russia story we invented!
Not a good idea to give this criminal a public platform to rehab his
reputation. And to get his talking points out.
This is a mistake.
I love how he’s playing the victim card here. It’s hard to garner sympathy when you’ve been caught writing text messages saying that Trump won’t become President and “We’ll stop him.”
Another reason this is a mistake.
He is playing the victim.
Hilly must have a special school for this type of behavior.
Jeff Sessions do your job.
He’s talking about how Putin wanted to divide America. But he is a central person in dividing and covering up the conspiracy.
Gowdy begins..
I searched, but when the title is too long to fit in the title window and you have to shorten it, search fails.
This guy is going to hang himself....Gowdy & Co. will pin him in a corner.
Obama’s collusion with Putin is known because of a “hot microphone”. The left was okay with it.
We can only hope........
Right out of John Brennans play book. Actually very funny and desperate.
Democrats are coordinating to totally disrupt this hearing. They should be taken out and put on the chain gang.
Sorry Peter but that nonsense lost all credibility a year ago!
You screwed up no its time for YOU to pay the price!
“This guy is going to hang himself....Gowdy & Co. will pin him in a corner”
Hopefully they will leave some ammo behind. Page delayed her testimony so that she can be on the same page as this Clown’s testimony. They need to trip her up.
So we see the Democrats have colluded to wreck the Strzok inquiry. It is obviously choreographed to neutralize investigation into the FBI handling of the Trump investigation.
