Fireworks at Strzok hearing as GOP reps fume at anti-Trump FBI agent, threaten contempt

by Brooke Singman

FBI official Peter Strzok’s first public hearing tumbled into a rancorous and heated political fracas on Thursday, as Republicans clashed with Democrats as well as the former investigator over his anti-Trump texts — and even threatened contempt for initially refusing to answer questions on the Russia probe.

Strzok, throughout it all, remained defiant and maintained that he did not show bias in those infamous messages with former FBI lawyer Lisa Page.

Republicans sharply disputed that assessment, with Rep. Darrell Issa later making Strzok read examples of those texts aloud. Among them, Strzok read one message where he called Trump a “disaster,” and another calling him an “idiot.”

Listening is best, however. Here is Rep Trey Gowdy, Chairman of the House Oversight Committee, with Peter Strzok.

Rep Jim Jordan had the opportunity to question FBI Agent Peter Strzok.

Finally, so too did Rep Louis Gohmert question Strzok.

And this is the Demorat response to essentially the head planner of a soft coup against the United States of America — which is clearly acceptable to the LDAMM.

At one point FBI Agent Peter Strzok was the actual head of Counterintelligence for the agency and, despite this, he compromised himself to outside actors in 1) Having an affair with Lisa Page as a married man, and 2) Providing a surfeit of material to be compromised by outside actors in a continuing series of seemingly never-ending texts. I should also point out the obvious as well — all on official FBI and hence taxpayer purchased equipment on FBI time.

Is that not what I said? Are these not the facts?

Let us remember that Inspector General Horowitz wrote, about Strzok, that he had a “clear biased mindset.” Let us also remember that Special Counsel Robert Mueller removed Peter Strzok from his team. Why?

This is quite sadly all you need to know about the FBI — as Strzok is still employed — and all you need to know about the kind of an individual who partakes mightily in a soft coup against a presidential candidate, a president-elect and a sitting president.

The best illustrations I can find.

In my opinion these are the responses of a sociopath.

FBI Agent Peter Strzok is proud of having spearheaded a soft coup against President Trump whilst, beforehand, minimizing and doing his best to cover up the actions of presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

Heads explode in the DC Swamp: consolidate government

Posted on by

You can hear the enamel chipping and flecking from the teeth of Deep State embedded do-nothing DC Swamp Rats from here.

And oh boy, if you think the Deep Swamp Statists are obstructionists now, hang on.

White House Proposes Merging Labor, Education Departments in Government Overhaul

by Kimberly L. Wright

 (RNN) – The White House has proposed merging the Department of Labor and the Department of Education on Thursday as part of the overhaul of the federal government.

Mick Mulvaney, the Office of Management and Budget chief, unveiled a plan during what he called a “drain the swamp” cabinet meeting, media reported.

The proposal would allow the administration to focus its efforts on student vocational training under one department, according to The Washington Post.

Mulvaney said at the meeting he wants to reduce about 45 job training programs down to 15.

The overhaul proposal results from an order President Donald Trump signed in March last year, which called for a review of the federal government in order to find redundancies and streamline agency operations.  

DC dentists, get ready. You’re about to be flooded with appointments.

Congress would need to approve any such overhaul of federal agencies.

The Department of Education was created by President Jimmy Carter in 1980, and has since been a subject of ire among conservatives.

The White House proposal to merge the departments is expected to occur as part of a larger vision to overhaul the federal government, including shrinking some agencies and altering the missions of others.

It’s part of a directive by Office of Management and Budget head Mick Mulvaney, urging leaders of federal agencies to find ways to streamline their efforts.

Again I say: this is precisely why I acquiesced and voted for Donald Trump. He’s the proverbial bull in the china shop.

Some days I don’t like that.

Most days I do.

That works for me.

Rip, tear. Repeat if necessary.

Oh yeah. It’s necessary.

SCOTUS gives President Trump power over key jobs in federal agencies

Posted on by

Mostly UNcovered by the LDAMM (Leftists, Demorats and American Media Maggots). Translated: more power ceded to the president to fire.

From Reuters.com:

SEC judge appointments unconstitutional, U.S. high court says

by Andrew Chung

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The U.S. Supreme Court gave presidents more control over key jobs in federal agencies on Thursday, ruling that the way the Securities and Exchange Commission selected in-house judges who enforce investor protection laws violated the U.S. Constitution.

The justices agreed with President Donald Trump’s administration that the SEC, in having low-level staff install administrative law judges, infringed upon powers given to the president in the U.S. Constitution’s “appointments clause” regarding the filling of certain federal posts.

Oh, but wait. It gets better.

The (7 – 2) ruling could reverberate through the federal government, which has nearly 2,000 administrative law judges who decide matters as varied as unfair trade practices, veterans benefits and patent infringement.

Gulp. You mean what is done can be undone by the president? All those sitting Admin Law judges who were perhaps ordained simply by arcane incantations and incense in swinging thuribles?

And perhaps best yet?

The ruling, authored by liberal Justice Elena Kagan, could also make it (BZ’s emphasis) easier for these in-house judges to be fired by a president’s political appointees in agencies rather than being protected from such action, as is currently the case.

An interesting point by Justice Kagan:

Kagan said administrative judges wield powers extensive enough to qualify under the Constitution as “inferior officers” subject to appointment by the president, a federal department head or a court.

Who then focuses on abuse of power next:

Just “as armies can often enforce their will through conventional weapons, so too can administrative judges,” Kagan said.

Another in a continuing series of reasons the Deep State and DC Swamp want President Donald John Trump, the guy with the dead orange cat on his head, to completely disappear. He is upsetting the status quo, bringing light where no light is desired and causing the cockroaches to scatter. Trump is even using pointy cowboy boots to kill said cockroaches when they skitter to once-safe corners.

Yes, I still don’t care for a percentile of what Trump does or says. Still and all, the more he is attacked for doing his job and upholding his campaign promises — and the more the LDAMM insult, minimize, delegitimize or actually attack me and other Conservatives (becoming more physical these days) — the more I stand with President Trump.

He’s crass, he’s rude, he’s an egomaniac (name one president who wasn’t), he’s a bull in a china shop where delicate sensitivities have clearly been offended. “Presidents don’t act that way.” Get over it, you wienies.

What presidents really do is put the United States first.

Just like every other nation does with themselves.

I can smell the LDAMM bed-wetting from here.
