Bobby Goodlatte, the son of House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.), said on Monday he is “embarrassed” that his father’s “political grandstanding” cost FBI agent Peter Strzok his job.
Earlier Monday, it was announced that Strzok was fired on Friday after sending disparaging text messages about President Trump during the 2016 election.
TWEET: "I’m deeply embarrassed that Peter Strzok’s career was ruined by my father’s political grandstanding. That committee hearing was a low point for Congress. Thank you for your service sir. You are a patriot."
Strzok, a frequent target of GOP critics of special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation, clashed with the elder Goodlatte during a hearing on Capitol Hill last month.
Bobby Goodlatte called that committee hearing “a low point for Congress” on Monday and thanked Strzok for his service.
Bobby Goodlatte said Sunday that he donated the maximum allowed to Democrat Jennifer Lewis, who is running for his father’s seat in the midterm elections.
“I just gave the maximum allowed donation to Jennifer Lewis, a democrat running for my father's congressional seat,” his son said on Twitter.
Goodlatte, 65, announced last November that he would not not seek reelection.
TWEET: I just gave the maximum allowed donation to Jennifer Lewis, a democrat running for my father's congressional seat. I've also gotten 5 other folks to commit to donate the max. 2018 is the year to flip districts — let's do this!
His head looks like it got caught in a press.
...and one of them is not knowing his father's reasons...Peter Strzok abused his FBI position, destroyed what little integrity he had left, and gave another black eye to the FBI and his colleagues.
Bobby sounds like an ungrateful son for starters.........
I was wondering if I should know who he is because I don’t.
Bobby can kiss my arse little liberal punk.
It looks like the best part of Jr ran down his mamma’s leg.
It’s a free country, but embarrassing your father in public is what Marxists always do. Very often they even go further than that. Part of the Marxist philosophy is that the family unit must be dissolved. Bobby Junior appears to be steeped in that philosophy .
He must be the Bad Latte.
Of course he’s Insane he’s a liberal Democrat.
Grandstanding? Jr needs to wake up to reality, he is supporting a criminal...just for starters...
Strzok is the person that ruined his career.
He would have made a good Marine with that jaw.
"...embarrassed by his father’s grandstanding..."
VERY ODD LOOKING INDIVIDUAL. SISSY.
Bobby Goodlatte HAS NO UNDERSTANDING OF THE HEARINGS!
His father is NOT responsible for Strzok’s firing!
Bobby Goodlatte is an idiot.
It’s not news.
narcissistic, homo son acting out against Daddy’s conservatism because the unspoken self-judgement constantly in the back of his mind is too much to bear.
Just a guess....
Stab your own father in the back over politics. Someday the POS might regret this.
Well, I guess the son is not going to be in the will.
it’s hard when your kids grow up to be idiots
I do not know if the father ever grand-stood; but it sure is clear that that is what the son is doing here. Pathetic!
