Republican lawmakers praised former FBI lawyer Lisa Page following a closed-door session Friday, saying she was "cooperative" and "credible" and much more forthcoming than FBI agent Peter Strzok (her former paramour). According to select committee members, Page provided new information and was less "smug" than Strzok.
Republicans were not impressed with Strzok's testimony on Thursday, to put it mildly.
"He was not honest. He was not credible in explaining his actions, and yet he's still on the payroll of the FBI," Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) said on "Fox and Friends" Saturday morning.
"Why is he still getting a paycheck from the American taxpayer? He should not be there anymore. He doesn't have credibility and he needs to move on," he added.
The GOP-led investigation is being run by the chairmen of the House Judiciary and Oversight committees.
“I found Lisa Page to be more credible than Peter Strzok,” Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) told reporters as he left the hearing, which lasted nearly five hours.
“I didn’t agree with her characterization of every text message and every piece of evidence, but we did not see the smug attitude from Lisa Page that we saw from Peter Strzok,” he added.

She has turned the tables on lover boy.
“Why is he still getting a paycheck from the American taxpayer?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That’s what I would like to know.
Hmmm.
I wonder if her mother being Iranian came in to question.
Who else has these connections, within the IAs?
Hmmmm.
““Why is he still getting a paycheck from the American taxpayer?”
Because Attorney General Rosenfeinstein is on his side.
Veeeery enteresting! Didn't know that.
So when he testifies before Congress, he can refuse to answer questions on "advice of FBI council. if he were fired, he could not claim that.
Why did Lisa page — a FORMER FBI agent — have FBI attorneys represent her at the hearing?
Let’s make a Deal
Page: I will give you names and info if promise not to tarnish my reputation to the media?
No, the Republicans are still the other half of the “deep state”.
“She has turned the tables on lover boy.”
Perhaps the Polish Swordsman, Special Agent Stroke, Peter, is on her S list for some reason? Not the first guy to be hoist on his own “petard”.
To protect against release of information that is vital to ongoing investigations of course, as was the case with Strozk.
I hope so- would be excellent to see her turn against him- Can’t believe she fell for that puke to begin with- but then again she was conspiring against Trump too it would appear- so birds of a feather it appears-
Looks like Page’s attorney was angling for an immunity agreement for Page and that may be what the testimony games were about.
Looks like Page may have figured out she was being set up for taking the fall or at the very least she was going to see some jail time.
Lisa Page to Peter Strzok: “I won’t play the sap for you. You framed Trump and you’re going over for it.”
Laz, would you hit it?
I think I already know the answer - but still wanna hear it from you.
They are both under the gallows.
Dumped side chicks will get even...
