Peter Strzok, A Cocky Liar to the End
The American Spectator ^ | July 13, 2018, 12:05 am | GEORGE NEUMAYR

Posted on 07/13/2018 5:59:38 AM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

His first public performance shows him to be a partisan weasel of the first order.

The Peter Strzok hearing was a travesty, starting with the fact that he testified as a cocooned, lawyered-up government employee still working for the FBI. It is outrageous that he hasn’t been fired yet. He even still has a security clearance! That alone is proof of the deep state’s hold on certain executive branch agencies. If the FBI keeps its so-so employees close, it keeps its worst employees even closer. That Strzok could huddle with FBI lawyers while stonewalling a Republican-led committee speaks to the corruption of official Washington and the comparative impotence of Republican administrations. Does anybody think an FBI agent who had vowed to “stop” the candidacy of Barack Obama would have lasted a week at his job, let alone over a year, after the discovery of his bias?

The cockiness of Strzok at Thursday’s hearing is a reflection of the immunity that ruling-class mandarins enjoy in liberal Washington. He was testifying from the safety of the deep state and thus knew that he could lie his head off without consequence. How else to explain his unrepentant opening statement, with its blatant anti-Trump special pleading? The statement sounded like it had been written by Rachel Maddow, resting on the lamest and hackiest of MSNBC-style talking points, that “today’s hearing is just another victory notch in Putin’s belt and another milestone in our enemies’ campaign to tear American apart.”

“Peter Strzok, A C0ck”

I think this is more accurate and appropriate

Proud Peter. Remember, pride always goes before the fall.

If this **swipe is not jailed, the Republicans will continue their long and cherished tradition of having no cojones.
That little dork is a pajama boy with attitude.

We either put down this bureaucratic coup attempt, which is still ongoing, or we forever live under their thumb. Yes, the stakes are that high. FBI = Gestapo.

He has access to same FBI files that Hillary obtained when in White House. Of course he’s cocky.

FBI regulations require an agent especially a counter intelligence officer who is having an affair to notify his superiors. Otherwise he could be blackmailed and even turned by foreign operatives. Wonder if Strzok complied and notified his superiors of his affair with Lisa Page. Also wonder where he got the funds to finance his affair.

Elite’s do have their privilege. If this sort of thing had been done by an average Joe, he would have the book thrown at him! Pretty damn disgusting. Trump must fire Sessions and Rosenstein or NOTHING will be done to correct this travesty of justice.

The FBI has 35,000 employees and a budget of almost 9 billion they deign to tell us about. Supposedly DOJ campaign contributions went to Clinton by 97% in 2016, with the IRS only going 94%. Can’t see anything changing at this point, it was probably to late to change the culture of the FBI 50 years ago.

But we know the vast majority of agents are true patriots who strive to perform their duties with honor. We know this because they constantly tell it to anyone within the sound of their voice.

Peter Strzok, A Cocky Liar to the End....................... They gave him enough time to prepare, I wonder how he would have answered a year ago. The longer you put these issues aside, the easier it is to walk away from them. Too many lawyers talk their way out and walk scott free.

There was or is an affair. That was cover to deflect from their personal biases that drove their “secondary project”.

I’m sure the smugness and cockiness of Strzok’s testimony t’d off the American people even more. They will not rest until he’s perp walked out of the FBI. This cannot be swept under the rug. The fact that the Dems defended his behavior will also go against them in the midterms.

True. It’s plain as day they’re all in together.

I kept asking when the Democrat members were going to come down and orally service him since they were doing verbal bj’s all afternoon.

My girlfriend got so disgusted by their behavior she walked out and couldn’t keep watching.

Well let’s hope people remember this at midterms because if the Dems get even control one house it’s over with because the Republicans can’t and won’t help with anything now and they own both houses now imagine the demons take over one or both houses? We’re toast.

If we had a judicial system this POS, Strozk would be sitting in a cell.

The Republicans are doing quite well.

Yesterday they put a seditionist conspirator on the hotseat for full display of his antiAmerican views
