Dems Heap Praise on Strzok at Hearing, Say He 'Deserves' Purple Heart

FBI Agent Peter Strzok was grilled on Capitol Hill Thursday by members of Congress for sending anti-Trump texts during two ongoing investigations. Well, he was at least grilled by the Republicans. The likes of Reps. Trey Gowdy (R-SC), Jim Jordan (R-OH), and Louie Gohmert (R-TX) demanded to know whether Strzok let his political bias affect his job. He admitted that he "detested" Donald Trump, but at no point did his political ideology factor in to his work at the FBI. The interrogators didn't believe him. Gohmert was particularly combative, telling Strzok he didn't appreciate the "smirk" on his face and that he was a "disgrace" to FBI agents all over the country.

Strzok maintained throughout the hearing that his political opinions did not amount to bias.

"Political belief does not equate to bias and we always have to go to the evidence," he said. "If you can demonstrate evidence of acts of bias, well then bias is there."

It was a lovefest, however, on the other side of the aisle. It seemed almost every time a Democrat got their question time, they had nothing but praise for the FBI agent. Rep. Hank Johnson (D-GA) said we should be "honoring" Strzok for the work he's done to keep the country safe.

One Democrat even wished he could award Strzok a purple heart.

What an insult to wounded service members:

Democrat Rep. Steve Cohen tells disgraced FBI agent Strzok: "If I could give you a Purple Heart, I would. You deserve one."

11:35 AM - Jul 12, 2018

Some of Strzok's most controversial texts with FBI lawyer Lisa Page, with whom he was having an extramarital affair, including expletive-filled messages about Trump and his supporters.

John Kerry can pin it on him. They could compare their wounds.

Might get some folks on board for some kind of award, if it was posthumous.

It’s the fact that this weasels’
weasel was an Army Ranger and he
didn’t set the congressman straight
on what it takes to EARN a purple
heart, that is disgusting. The
character of this ex-soldier is very
telling.

I hate that RINOs might keep their congress seats but Democrats are so disgusting that it may be worth it.

Strzok deserves shackles and leg irons.

The dims saying this- that is proof they have no idea about the military- no knowledge of the significance of the Purple Heart. Are they really trying to say he was wounded in combat today?

Yeah for sure Strzok should get years in gitmo for selling out the country he and his father could share a cell.
Is this what he was really up to:

https://truepundit.com/troubling-questions-emerge-about-fbi-chief-strzoks-collusion-with-cia-father-worked-in-africa-for-companies-linked-to-funded-by-cia-operations/

Embattled FBI Agent Peter Strzok, embroiled in the spying and wiretapping scandal of President Trump, grew up in Africa for a stint while his father worked for companies that have long been linked as operational and funding cut-outs for the Central Intelligence Agency, according to records.

Now, as the spying and wiretapping scandal of the FBI has implicated former CIA Director John Brennan and Barack Obama’s CIA, questions have emerged about the FBI Strzok’s connections to the CIA. And that of his family too. The Inspector General is probing many facets of FBI corruption, along with House and Senate committees. That includes CIA involvement in the FBI spying scandals. And Strzok’s alleged role as a clandestine liaison between FBI and CIA.

True Pundit reported Brennan’s involvement in Sept. 2017 and now — nine months later — others are asking questions about the FBI’s involvement with the CIA with what amounts to an apparent clandestine operation to unseat President Trump — or make sure he was never elected in the first place.

The FBI’s Strzok bragged in internal FBI text messages about obtaining a CIA coin – often awarded for meritorious service to intelligence agents — from and personally signed by former CIA Director John Brennan in 2017. Now Strzok is accused of working with CIA cut-out Stefan Halper to set traps for Trump associates.

A very liberal Jew in a black district
He beat machine blacks in Memphis repeatedly
He’s a southern accent Jew who can politic damn good to be honest
Beating blacks for his seat considering residual black anti Jewish sentiment in urban areas is a feat
He was a pain as a TN state legislator
I’ve followed Cohen for 20 years ....

Started watching it and had to turn it off after the Dems applauded the lying POS after his “Me and my FBI is all Patriots and your attacks are disgusting...” tirade.

Agreed, and I doubt I’ve ever seen a more disgusting tirade than Strzok and every RAT that supported him.
