U.S. House Representative Louis Gomert of the First District of Texas is unable to carry out any questioning during a Congressional hearing because he has no civil demeanor. He admits he did not ask a question. Gomert did nothing but defame a former FBI agent and Hillary Clinton. Gomert should be examined to his participation at this hearing for ethics violations.
This hearing is turning into empty accusation after empty accusation for the sake of Republican politician agenda. The committee isn’t interested in answers of a former agent under oath. There you go, a committee member states he does not believe Mr. Strzok even when under oath. It is a circus and not a hearing. It is nothing but a PR stunt. I am not hearing anything of quality or sanity. Strzok is under oath and members of the committee are annoyed when the truth is said.
The Republicans are trying desperately to change the truth. Strzok should sue for the harassment he is receiving today. Hillary Clinton should sue for defamation.
This committee meaning should have never occurred in the first place because there’s an ongoing investigation. This hearing would have been far more effective if it was conducted after the conclusion of the investigation.
The unprofessional demeanor of the committee along with the unprofessional behavior of President Trump in Europe is giving our allies disillusionment of this country. I also find the coordination of this illegitimate committee and Donald Trump’s unnecessary meeting with Vladimir Putin very, very odd.
I have to agree with US House Representative Luis Gutierrez that unprofessional committee hearings designed to defame the FBI is the best propaganda for Russia.
US Rep. Brenda Lawrence stated the testimony of Mr. Strzok was focused on the lack of appropriate setting to today’s committee meeting in an unclassified setting. In other words the hearing today caused suspicion to Mr. Strzok in the inappropriate setting and his necessity to refuse to answer questions.
The more I see this committee meeting the more it appears to be a public show for political purposes.
U.S. Rep. Gowdy also disbelieves Mr. Strzok answers. It is easy to state Mr. Gowdy formulated answers to his questions he expected and when not provided by Mr. Strzok, Mr. Gowdy raises doubts in Mr. Strzok’s honesty.
I also believe US Rep. Jefferies is correct, the values of the Republican Party are in question not the democracy of the USA.
Gowdy is doing it again. He is looking for an answer that isn’t there. Rep. Gowdy can’t even maintain regular order.
Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman is attempting to bring the purpose of the hearing back to have truth answers from Mr. Strzok. His 2+ minute response was an impassioned plea to return to healthy skepticism of Russia and it’s manipulations of the 2016 elections.
Polygraph “Out of Scope” questions by Rep. Doug Collins. It was determined Mr. Strzok was out of scope in January of 2016.
Rep. David Cicline is correct, this committee meeting is about developing a dialogue. That is why Rep. Collins asked a factual question to provide his participation as a valid investigation by the committee.
I will say this much about Rep. Gowdy, he was using his power as Chairman to cross examine Mr. Strzok rather than maintain order according to committee rules.
Rep. De Santis explores the bias of Mr. Strzok and has brought a conclusion that bias effected Mr. Strzok work. Mr. Strzok states he is unaware by others regarding his bias. Rep. De Santis states he is confident there is still an investigation of Mr. Strzok’s bias.
Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi brought focus of leaks and their detrimental effect on investgations. The more people aware of a fact the more likely it leaks. Concern there was visceral hatred of Hillary Clinton in the New York City field office and st that time Mr. Giuliani was in touch with active FBI before Mr. Comey announced the issue of the Weiner laptop. That is very interesting. I knew Comey was motivated by somebody regarding Hollary. Guilliani threw the election to Trump after the Russians did their dampest. The entire Comey thing was out of place and proved to be unnecessary after the damage was done to Hillary’s reputation.
Jordan’s questions could not be answered because of the inappropriate venue for the questions. What is Jordan doing there? He is refusing his responsibility in the sexual abuse of wrestlers under his supervision.
Mr. Strzok statements about Trump never being President was a personal statement taken out of context.
This week is a very sad week in the history of the United States for this travesty of a committee meeting and Trump riding roughshod over NATO and then to realize Guilliani accepted Russian influence in the 2016 election and then stirred up enough fear of reprisal against Comey and the FBI for not announcing the Weiner emails is more insult to the country’s integrity. It goes to prove the Republican Party will accept all forms of power to win an election to deliver on promises to cronies like the Kochs. The political machine of the GOP will do anything including placing an unqualified lawyer in the Justice Department to attempt to dismantle an investigation regarding Russian interference. This is Guilliani. I would what he is being paid to overthrow the government of the USA?
The Koch money helped along with Russia, but, it didn’t solely win the seats in 2016.
There needs to be veto proof legislation to protect Mueller from the Russian traitor currently in the Justice Department. There also needs to be funding established to carry out the reunification of immigrate families and a dedicated unit within HHS to conduct background checks of parents waiting for their children. Both these issues need to be addressed now.
