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.

Nadler thinks Gohmert impugned the character of Strzok?

Nah, he sailed that ship all on his own...philandering, cheating, lying...all of them contributed to his own ethical suicide.

“your questioning of a look I would engage in with a family member who I have acknowledged hurting goes more towards a discussion of your character, and what you stand for, and is going inside you, than mine.” -strzok

That’s the stupidest retort evah.

Lame.

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?"

His Demwit colleague from Texas should have been thrown out of the hearing, then off the committee, and then condemned for her remark. Thanks SMGFan.

Strzok is such a pussy. He is a top dawg at FBI and Lisa Page was all he could aspire to reach for?

After watching his shameless act and smirking throughout it all, I can safly say he is the type of man who was just using Miss Page for a "quick release" during downtime.

Nothing more than a "living sock" She might have had more futuristic dreams but she was deluded in thinking she meant anything more to him.

Gohmert had better watch his back...I suspect that there are still supporting weasels in the Bureau. Why hasn’t anyone there spoken up?

Who’s the FBI-sponge in the picture?

"Strzok had a wife, family and a girlfriend. Generally that activity tends to get expensive."

I would guarantee they abused their expense accounts! Another line of inquiry into the methodical dishonesty of these conspirators.

If his wife can’t him can they expect anyone to trust him?

Maybe John Francois Kerry can give Strzok one of his Purple Hearts. He has a bunch of them.

Giving this criminal a public platform was a mistake.

Oh, darn... veins. I was hoping they were tumors.

[MPJackal]

I thought I heard the dems call PDJT all kinds of vile things during the hearing. That is OK, but call an a-hole an a-hole and that is just too much. F this jackass. I hope he loses everything. He deserves it.

[RedMonqey]

The Rat objection was a red herring, anyhow. The House rules forbid impugning the character of a fellow member or the President. No such rule regarding witnesses brought before Congress.

They had no problem "impugning the character of the President" today, Especially the African-Americans and the Hispanic Caucus. And what was left of the Democratic "Caucasian Caucus"

Rep. Sheila Jackson-Lee: “You need your medication!(Here, have some of mine...)”

David Strathairne should ‘play him in the movie’. But the movie will go bust because we will have Hollywood Leftists spinning the truth.

Betcha Strok goes home and strangles his cat after this. He seems the type to torture small, helpless animals.

[ought-six]

“The House rules forbid impugning the character of a fellow member or the President.”

Well, at least one Rat viciously attacked and impugned POTUS in that hearing. Don’t know her name, but she was a black congresscritter from, I think, New Jersey. A truly vile woman.

Wow, look at that vein at his temple. He’s about to pop and drop dead from a stroke!
