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!
Thanksgiving AND Christmas are ruined....................

Good. He wasting his money.
That’s all they got?
Well, I guess the son is not going to be in the will.
This so called patriot is going to jail sonny.
Make sure sonny boy is not elected to anything.
Have some daddy issues, do we?
Hahaha. Obviously, this guy’s son is a lunatic LIB. What a pathetic family.
Well, President Reagan’s son Ron is a flaming lib, so this happens from time to time.
Hey Bobby your inheritance just got gone.
I’m sure the media will be reporting on all the GOP-supporting family members of Democrat Congressmembers and Senators... right.
He sounds like a few of Reagans kids.
Bobby’s got issues.
Bobby is apparently the Goodlattes’ Fredo Corleone, taking sides against the family.
Sounds like this “son,” for some reason, may be reflecting his own insecurities in this public attempt undermine his father.
Some kids are just plain ole bad.
Go back to the basement you twerp.
Maybe he can go and marry Tim Kain’s Antifa son.
