Hearing with FBI agent goes off the rails after GOP congressman asks how many times he lied to his wife about cheating on her
A congressional hearing devolved into chaos Thursday afternoon when Rep. Louie Gohmert of Texas attacked FBI agent Peter Strzok over his extramarital affair with FBI lawyer Lisa Page.
While accusing Strzok of lying under oath, Gohmert said, "I can't help but wonder when I see you looking there with a little smirk, how many times did you look so innocently into your wife's eye and lied to her about Lisa Page?"
The House chamber quickly broke out into pandemonium, with fellow lawmakers shouting "Mr. chairman, this is outrageous!", "Shame on you!", and "This is intolerable harassment of a witness!" over each other.
Rep. Sheila Jackson-Lee, also of Texas, even yelled "You need your medication!" to rebuke Gohmert. Rep. Jarrod Nadler of New York then raised a point of order, accusing Gohmert of violating House rules by "impugning the character" of a testifying witness.

Hahahahaha! That was a brilliant question.
How dare you badger a witness just for lying to us.
Nothing is going to happen to anyone involved with this nonsense, so we might as well make them snap. Bring on the civil war. I don’t think I want to live in a country that is going to let this bullshit slide yet again.
If looks could kill...
I'll bet the whale raised a floorboard by stepping on it too hard. But I apologize to whales.
Dems are so absurdly self-righteous and “moral.” They wouldn’t know a moral if Aesop visited them from the spirit world and told them one.
If the American people are stupid enough to believe the Dems and Scarlett Screwup, our nation is done.
Such a history of lying is a direct aspect of the man’s lack of character. ... Not to mention the blatant hypocrisy of the demonrats who want to impeach a president because of a possible tryst with a porn star many years ago. Democrat congress things are filth, loathsome creatures of their father, the father of lies..
dums can’t handle the truth
This guy always reminded me of one of those candy-ass administrators in the “Bourne” movies
What character?
Wow!
Well played Mr. Gohmert. Well played.
Strzok in college was Niedermeir from Animal House.
Bet on it.
And why can’t an FBI official be asked that question? Guess little things like being compromised by foreign agents are off limits. And Strzok is so self righteous he attacked Gohmert in response.
Pete didn’t realize his sins would find him out! I wouldn’t trust that scumbag to be dog catcher. That scum is what an obamaroid regime for eight years raises.
Poor baby. Probably more worried about his “piece of tail” than his wife.
Colbol,
Is that a chip behind his ear ?
his tasted is all in his mouth
