Embattled FBI agent Peter Strzok suggested during an open hearing Thursday that the ongoing congressional investigation into political bias within the FBI would severely damage the institution of American law enforcement.
“This entire exercise comes at a cost,” said Strzok, who was removed from Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s probe of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. “We are doing things that are going to, in the future, tear down the underpinnings of what represents law and order in this country. And there is not a robust, thick wall there. I think people don’t appreciate how tenuous the balance of the rule of law verses chaos is.”
The veteran FBI agent then appeared to conflate the ongoing congressional investigation into political bias within the agency to more general attacks on law enforcement, such as the characterization of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers as “Nazis” by some on the far left.
“When we as a people engage in activity where we take the institutions wholesale, whether its the FBI or the U.S. intelligence community, and compare them to Nazis, we destroy things that we may not see for years and years. Once we break those down the amount of time it’s going to take to fix is going to be tenfold.”

It is worse than worthless. It is an active threat to liberty and the country.
Like the old tale of the kid who killed his parents then pleaded for mercy from the court because he was an orphan.
Director Comey: fired for cause, IG report supported reasoning
Deputy director McCabe: fired and under criminal investigation for lying to investigators.
This whole Strzok/Page affair, both the affair itself and it’s impact on how the Clinton email investigation wrapped up and the murky collusion angle got kicked off: both actors in the affair are out of the agency. the IG report indicated lots of questions that need more answers, and there is still no clear accounting for the recklessly dangerous actions of two senior FBI officials who were endangering national security by carrying out an affair and blabbing about their political biases on work phones.
FBI HQ needs a modern day Church commission.
Peter, you’re no Ollie North!
He nailed the Bill Clinton Purple Rage look.
FBI and DOJ are corrupt from the top to the bottom. Time totally re-organize and purge the criminals.
Draw and quarter. Hang ‘em high.
Mein Gott! Tell me that gif isn’t for real. Disgusting!
instant classic...check out his lawyers faces sitting behind him when Louie lowered the boom...awesome.
u can thank our fearless Attorney General...
Strozk is basically saying, “If I go down, the FBI goes down with me.”
To which I say, I’ll take that package deal. We don’t need a Federal law enforcement entity beyond the Marshall service. The most prominent activity of the FBI, other than election meddling, is entrapping the stupid into terrorist conspiracies and either busting them for publicity, or letting them play out with deadly consequences, at their whim.
I couldn’t agree more. To those of us that understand the disordered mind of an extreme narcissist, the implications of these people being in charge of anything is frightening.
If Republicans had half a brain, that Video would be a mid-term Ad.
Strzok Is a very disturbed man.
Stroll is more like Jack C, Ripper than Nathan R. Jessup. For all you Peter Sellers fans.
FUStrzok.
More like tear down the facade.
Someone stick a cattle prod up this man’s ass. He lacks focus.
Liberals who hate our Constitution as written have no problem hiding behind it when necessary.
It’s like them using the Children of Illegal Invaders as Human Shields.
We should make sure that America sees that smirking face.
Have any FBI agents resigned in protest over the agency's corruption?
So says the one who was caught red handed, but they now are accusing the inquiry panel of discrediting the FBI. These leftist loons are expert at lies & deflection.
That smarmy weasel is hard to look at.
