An FBI agent censured for sending anti-Trump text messages while he helped lead investigations into Hillary Clinton and President Donald Trump will break his public silence Thursday in testimony before Congress.

The agent, Peter Strzok, will appear before a joint hearing of the House Judiciary and Oversight and Government Reform committees at 10 a.m. Thursday. His testimony comes a month after a report by the Justice Department’s inspector general on the department’s handling of the Clinton probe that rebuked the agent for sending messages that “cast a cloud” over the Federal Bureau of Investigation and “sowed doubts” about its work.

Mr. Strzok exchanged thousands of texts messages from 2015 through 2017 with a former FBI lawyer, Lisa Page, with whom he was having an affair. At the time, he was the lead agent on the probe of Mrs. Clinton’s use of a private email server when she was secretary of state, and later he helped spearhead the FBI’s inquiry into Russia’s interference in the 2016 election.

The trouble with his testimony is, can you really believe anything an FBI guy says these days? They better all bring an umbrella. He’ll be peeing on their legs and telling them it’s raining.

His testimony:
“I’m innocent! I didn’t do anything wrong! After this statement I will exercise my Fifth Amendment rights.”

Hers:
Lisa Page: “I did it because I loved him. I loved him! He said he was going to leave his wife and marry me. He promised.”

Was that worth weeks of anticipation by the media?

This nut job is a committed deep state coup participant. What he says in front on congress will be vague, lies, self-serving and evasive. He has no fear of perjury or prosecution as he is a deep state rat and they have immunity unless they turn on the deep state.

He will say things the equivalent of “the sun does not rise in the east”, and “water is not wet” while looking the congresscritters in the eye.

For once, it isn’t Lisa Page opening her mouth.

I’ll believe it when I see it. In any event, nothing will come out of it.

FBI’s Peter Strzok to Break His Silence

My guess is that we'll all become familiar with the wording of The Fifth Amendment.

Funny how those that tear down The Constitution hide behind it.

If he was married during the “affair” he was blackmailable.

Wake me when someone actually goes to jail, will you? Justice is dead in this country.

Sorry folks... He has been advised by his attorney not to answer any questions with regard to an investigation that is ongoing. Wait and see.

Someone with a scanner should sweep to catch what his ear-bug is telling him. Something like a SDR on an Android.

I thought his closed door testimony was considered useless? What are they hoping a public hearing will show?
