Peter Strzok Denies Bias: Trump Hatred ‘Expressed out of Deep Patriotism’
Breitbart ^ | 12 Jul 2018 | Robert Kraychik

Posted on 07/12/2018 3:36:24 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

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.”

This is what happens when there is no fear of a firing squad.

These MF’s are laughing in our face and stopping off at the bank to deposit their huge undeserved paychecks.

Trumps should be giving orders to purge the coup plotters, conduct mass arrests, seize assets, and order executions.

He’s not doing us any favors.

Like the SS trying to explain how it was all done out of love for the fatherland, which justifies the action.

Strzok is below scum. But we knew that. If my kids gave me a mug like that, they would get a slap.

That’s why they are honorable men - not rotten, low-life cheaters.

A Democrat's idea of patriotism has nothing to do with America or the Constitution.

The latest prophecy sez that in the near future, when indictments are being served, and bigshots arrested, from Obunga on down; the loony left will become so wild and riotous that martial law will be declared. I understand that 1,000+ military officers have been recalled to active duty.

......he was having an affair out of a deep and abiding love of his wife....

His deep, abiding love of country did not require faithfulness to his wife.

Or as the feminists said about Billy getting lewinskied in the Oval office....."it's just sex."

Hillary did not agree and proceeded to demean, lacerate and put down any woman who dared expose Billy's serial unfaithfulness.

They all have to be held accountable for doing that. These DEMOCRAT Miscreants are a disgrace.

He meant “Deep State” not “Deep Patriotism”.

This liar sooo full of $hittt! He had an extramarital affair and lied to his wife about it. Zero credibility.
Everything he said or says and everything he did or does loses all validity and is not to be believed. He dresses himself up in some kind of righteous patriotism while at the same time smirks and jeers at the democratic process to which he claims is his shield.

This is how dictators come into being. I would support martial law and the military arresting a lot of people.

I guess this @$$hole sees 64 million Americans as being unpatriotic. KMA Strzok. And go see Vanna about buying a least one more vowel you commie biatch. You wouldn’t know patriotism if a patriot bit you on the ass.

I completely and unequivocally deny that I’ve ever posted on FR.

There. My statement was probably MORE honest.
