Peter Strzok repeatedly denied that his own political and partisan biases shaped his conduct as an FBI agent during Thursday testimony before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. “Let me be clear, unequivocally, and under oath: Not once in my 26 years of defending our nation did my personal opinions impact any official action I took,” said Strzok during his opening remarks. “This is true for the Clinton email investigation, for the investigation into Russian interference, and for every other investigation I’ve worked on. It is not who I am and it is not something I would ever do. Period.”
Text messages exchanged between Strzok and then-FBI lawyer Lisa Page revealed hostility towards then-presidential candidate Donald Trump and his supporters.
Strzok described his political and partisan opinions as rooted in patriotism: “Those opinions were expressed out of deep patriotism and an unyielding belief in our great American democracy.”
Strzok said personal political and partisan biases do not affect FBI agents’ conduct: “The FBI has a culture … everything we do is dedicated to pursuit of the facts where they lay, and applying the law to those facts. There is no room for personal belief. It is something that is anathema to us. It is simply something culturally that doesn’t occur.”
He also said, “The fact is, after months of investigations there is simply no evidence of bias in my professional actions.”

Can I say that about Obama?
Will the press leave me alone?
What does this say about his respect for the Democratic process?
Deep-Stateriotism.
After every D rant, the next R should say ‘to get back to the matter at hand’........
Serial LIAR aka democrat.
Troll’n Troll’n Troll’n, keep those trolls a roll’n
(as Donald cracks a bullwhip)
He is self-deceived.
Is it true that a DEMOCRAT Congressman said the SHRZOK deserved a Purple Heart?
Gotta keep in mind, what our modern flock of Dems calls patriotism is a radically socialist reimagined thing.
...and he was having an affair out of a deep and abiding love of his wife?
Just more kabuki theater resulting in absolutely nothing. The fbi/doj are untouchable because the congress will not do it’s job.
Strzok’s attempt to cloak himself in the purity and righteousness of the “FBI culture” was particularly galling
It was pure propaganda. People like him who are career DC insiders and FBI insiders live in an echo chamber where they only know and regurgitate their own slogans and self-righteousness
Its clear the FBI in Washington is a pure mono-culture of political climbers, statists and liars
He should be frog-marched to the nearest jail cell and thrown in and the key lost.
And take that ass Ted Lieu with him...and a few more of the other appeasing sycophants.
I am thoroughly and totally disgusted with this bunch of damned clowns.
The Washington swamp is like the Mafia where everyone has to commit a crime to get made. They can’t rat each other out because they are all guilty of something
AND...he still WORKS at the FBI, and has top level security clearance. Something has gone awfully wrong.
I agree. I’ve been watching this off and on all day, and the lockstep misdirection and grandstanding that the Democrats are employing represent political stupidity, complete poverty of principle and idea, and utter disconnection from normal people.
This is turning off many middle-of-the-road, traditional Democrats who can see clearly what’s going on, and are going to take their support from this dreck in coming elections.
The Democrat Party has ‘jumped the shark’.
He’s completely lost his marbles over liberalism. It’s turned him into an utter kook. I pray to God he never works on another FBI case as long as he lives.
As a military retiree I believe that the sleezebag’s “patriotism” deserves a 500 pounder delivered up his Obamahole.
The Deep State Swamp thinks worship of the Deep State Swamp is very patriotic. Who knew?
