Who is Peter Strzok?
Who is Peter Strzok?
From Wonkette..
On Wednesday night, Rachel Maddow had a VERY LONG "A" BLOCK that you really should watch to get a sense of who this Peter Strzok guy is. (Surprise, it's not the same as the Trump/GOP/Fox News caricature!) Have you seen popular TV show "The Americans"? It's based on the true story of the Russian intelligence group Directorate "S" and its "illegals" program, which sent Russian spies into the United States with fake identities and life stories, in order that they may fully assimilate into American culture, lose their accents, and, in essence, become the Mom 'n' Pop spies next door.
In 2010, under the Obama administration, the FBI nabbed a whole fuckton of those "illegals" and sent them back to Russia in a spy swap that included the release of Sergei Skripal from a Russian prison; you will recognize him as the guy Russia tried to poison in the UK earlier this year. The investigation went on for more than 10 years and it was called Operation Ghost Stories. And who ran the investigation into two of the most prominent of those "illegals"? Peter Motherfucking Strzok.
You will want to watch this entire Maddow report:
THAT is who this guy is. THAT is who Trump and the House GOP are trying to paint as some sort of traitor to the republic. THAT GUY.
Did we mention that, despite the dog-and-pony show character of today's hearing, and despite how they refuse to release the transcript of his closed-door testimony so they can instead just leak shit, Strzok really WANTS to do this? Because he does. And today is going to be motherfucking LIT, y'all, especially if Strzok says things like this:
