Embattled FBI agent Peter Strzok clashed with lawmakers at a House hearing, where GOP lawmakers grilled Strzok on his alleged bias against Trump.
Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Tex.) asked Strzok, “I can’t help but wonder, when I see you looking there with a little smirk, how many times did you look so innocent into your wife’s eyes and lie to her about Lisa Page?” One democratic lawmakers responded that it was “intolerable harassment of the witness,” and another exclaimed, “You need your medication.”
Strzok sent Trump-bashing texts to his former co-worker and lover using his FBI phone, during a period when he was conducting investigations into Russian election meddling and Hillary Clinton’s email server.
Rep. Trey Gowdy pressed him on why Mueller removed him from the Russia probe if Strzok was not biased in any way.
Strzok said it was a “perception” problem that Mueller wanted to avoid. Gowdy countered that 13 Democrats are working on Mueller’s probe and have not been removed.
“I don’t appreciate what was originally said being changed,” Strzok said, accusing Gowdy of misrepresenting his earlier testimony.
“I don’t give a damn what you appreciate, Agent Strzok,” Gowdy fired back, saying he doesn’t appreciate an “FBI agent with an unprecedented level of animus working on two major investigations.”
