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.”

The final resort of the criminal bureaucrat. Don’t expose my crimes because it will destroy public confidence in our institutions.
The opposite is the truth.
I think I understand.
This is one of those stories where the FBI doesn’t look so good. Much better for the United States if their corruption and lawlessness is quickly brushed aside and forgotten.
Am I missing anything?
The Right should have protests with signs: Abolish FBI! The Democrat media would have a cow.
“Did You Use That Smirk When You Lied To Your Wife?”
they also create a lot of false flags in order to justify the surrender of liberty
No, you Strzok and you other corrupt FBI and DOJ Deep State pukes who tried and continue to try a coup have already done that. (Rest redacted so I’m not banned for use of foul language)
Rope.
Tree.
Strzok.

Someone tell Smirky Stzrok that his actions are destrying thre FBI
Wow. What a projectionist sleazebag. Just like his pal Comey.
Perfect cellmates.
And his 50,000-plus text and the whole politicization didn’t?!
The democrats have already done a pretty good job of tearing down underpinning of law and order.
We need to start asking what kind of whackjobs are being hired for our federal agencies, and taking to account those who are hiring them.
These obvious corrupt jerks are being paid handsomely with OUR money.
Strzok took great offense when asked about his extra marital affair with Lisa Page. However it goes beyond being a personal matter. Strzok is or was a senior counter intelligence agent in the FBI. While he is free to conduct an affair, FBI rules and regulations require that he disclose the relationship with his superiors. The rule is a good one to prevent an agent in that situation from being blackmailed or turned by competent foreign operatives. Also conducting such an affair while supporting a wife and family tends to get expensive. It is legitimate to inquire if Strzok was receiving funds beyond his salary. For instance did he do any paid “consulting” work perhaps for the Clinton Foundation. Sorry Peter but there will be more questions and inquiries before this is over.
The FBI is the laughing stock of the World.

We are tearing down the underpinnings of the Deep State.
If we are not too late.......
This guy, smug pos...needs to be made an example of.
Seriously, I’m a patient guy, but the lack of prosecution of the deep state is very troublesome.
Trump, you can’t let the Swamp keep getting away with this crap!
What the!
