Robert Mueller did not need to hear Peter Strzok’s explanations. It was late July 2017, and the special counsel had summoned the F.B.I. counter-intelligence agent into his office. Mueller had recently become aware of text messages between Strzok—who was then one of the top investigators for Mueller’s probe of Russian meddling during the 2016 presidential campaign—and Lisa Page, an F.B.I. lawyer who was also assigned to Mueller’s staff. Some of the exchanges vividly bashed Donald Trump. And Strzok and Page weren’t just text buddies—they were having an extramarital affair.
Mueller swiftly delivered the news that Strzok was being removed from the Russia team. Strzok wanted to try to explain the context of the anti-Trump texts, but Mueller was not interested—not because he didn’t care whether Strzok’s political opinions might have biased the agent’s work, but because Mueller was fiercely determined to maintain both the investigation’s actual integrity and the appearance of its integrity. The existence of the texts was bad enough, no matter what was intended. Strzok, a highly respected 22-year F.B.I. veteran, left Mueller’s office headed for purgatory, a desk in the bureau’s human-resources department.

Why didn't Strzok blow the whistle on Trump before the election? He certainly could have.
More I think about it the more Strzok reminds me of Comey. Start with grandstanding, end with poor character and integrity in words alone. He's the type who if he killed a puppy, he would intensely explain why it was important to do so and he shouldn't be questioned for it. Any Psychiatrists here? Must be a label for it.
I realize this guy is theatre for the Trumpfolks. And everyone who thinks realizes there really is not a conspiracy beyond the fact that Comey was never going to indict Hillary. And that drives Gowdy nuts. LOL/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/60340585/GettyImages_995589288.0.jpg)
WASHINGTON — FBI agent Peter Strzok, whose disparaging text messages about President Donald Trump prompted his removal from the ongoing inquiry into Russia's interference in the 2016 election, is to give public testimony Thursday at a joint meeting of House committees.
The public hearing comes in the wake of an 11-hour, closed session last week with members of the House Judiciary and Oversight committees.
Angered by lawmakers' selective leaks of that meeting, Strzok's lawyer has called for the full transcript of that testimony to be released before Thursday's session. Strzok was subpoenaed earlier this week to testify publicly.

This sounds like must-see TV. Rachel Maddow did an extraordinary segment on Strzok a few minutes ago. I'll be watching. Will you...?
Wow, yesterday was a major embarrassment for American government.
On contraire. Yes they do. But if you want to say collusion is a crime open to indictment, I meet your straw man and raise you a deflectionNot one of the indictments, nor pleas have anything to do with collusion. You do understand that don't you?
