FBI Agent Peter Strzok was grilled on Capitol Hill Thursday by members of Congress for sending anti-Trump texts during two ongoing investigations. Well, he was at least grilled by the Republicans. The likes of Reps. Trey Gowdy (R-SC), Jim Jordan (R-OH), and Louie Gohmert (R-TX) demanded to know whether Strzok let his political bias affect his job. He admitted that he "detested" Donald Trump, but at no point did his political ideology factor in to his work at the FBI. The interrogators didn't believe him. Gohmert was particularly combative, telling Strzok he didn't appreciate the "smirk" on his face and that he was a "disgrace" to FBI agents all over the country.
Strzok maintained throughout the hearing that his political opinions did not amount to bias.
"Political belief does not equate to bias and we always have to go to the evidence," he said. "If you can demonstrate evidence of acts of bias, well then bias is there."
It was a lovefest, however, on the other side of the aisle. It seemed almost every time a Democrat got their question time, they had nothing but praise for the FBI agent. Rep. Hank Johnson (D-GA) said we should be "honoring" Strzok for the work he's done to keep the country safe.
One Democrat even wished he could award Strzok a purple heart.
What an insult to wounded service members:

Some of Strzok's most controversial texts with FBI lawyer Lisa Page, with whom he was having an extramarital affair, including expletive-filled messages about Trump and his supporters.
The only shocking thing about this guy is he’s married and had an affair with a woman. Seriously!!!!!
Is Strzok still with his wife, and Page with her husband?
I’ve no idea, if so they are both married to idiots.
“Point of order!! Point of order!!”
Isn’t that the phrase that finally sank Joe McCarthy back in the hearings in the 1950’s?
“Senator, you’ve done enough. Have you no sense of decency, sir? At long last, have you left no sense of decency?”

This man is a pompous ass. He doesn’t not belong in a government job at all, let alone one like the one he has.
Why wouldn’t they praise him? He was a DNC operative within the FBI, turning our federal law enforcement agency into a partisan polical organization for their benefit.
Right on, my FRiend.
I’d love to see someone plant that turkey and wipe the smirk off his face.
He deserves to be tried, convicted and shot for treason.
John Kerry can pin it on him.
They could compare their wounds.
Same here.
Who the hell does he think he is dishonoring our nation as he has?
Amen...They’re two of a kind, pathetic kind.
Which means no justice. They could impeach and remove Trump or just assassinate him, and the right would, for the most part, sit on their hands.
He is a liar’s liar. The Dems are straight up evil.
How bad is Mr. Lisa Page if she cheats on him with THIS??
Cohen is a liberal Jew living in Memphis. He has never served a damn day in his life.
BUMP!
Because they have never served
Strzok deserves a firing squad for treason
