“My client will testify soon, somewhere, sometime. We just got this subpoena today, so I don’t know whether or not we are going to be testifying next Tuesday in front of these two particular House subcommittees,” Aitan Goelman, the attorney for Strzok, told CNN’s Chris Cuomo Tuesday.
The House Judiciary and House Oversight and Government Reform Committees subpoenaed Strzok on Tuesday to testify at a joint hearing hosted by the committees on July 10.
Strzok, who was a top FBI investigator on the Hillary Clinton email investigation as well as the Russia probe, appeared for a closed-door session before both committees June 27. He was quizzed over his involvement in both investigations as well as anti-Trump text messages he exchanged with his mistress, a former FBI attorney named Lisa Page.
Strzok served on Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s team until July 2017, when his text messages were found. Republicans have zeroed in on the text messages, saying that Strzok’s overt bias might have influenced his actions on the Clinton and Russia investigations.
Strzok explicitly told Page that “we’ll stop” Trump from becoming president.
FYI Friend – I moved in to AAN and receive news alerts from them – so we are still connected as well as in discussions like it’s always been.
Have ignored this. Wasn’t sure what it meant, but spam so concerned that we
will lose contact at some point. Not a good thing with all the problems the team
will need to solve in the days ahead. I also realize you too are now in a hot spot.
This too will pass, but for some the days ahead will be very difficult. Hope this
will be a good thing.
Is this going through to you?
