GOP Representative Trey Gowdy tore anti-Trump FBI agent Peter Strzok to pieces during his fiery testimony before Congress, slamming the DOJ official over his political bias before and during the 2016 presidential election.
According to Hannity.com, Gowdy was demanding answers from Strzok regarding his removal from Robert Mueller’s Russia probe when the exchange went off the rails; asking him “How long did you talk to him when he let you go?”

“My recollection it was a short meeting, somewhere between 15 to 30 minutes, probably around 15 minutes,” said Strzok.
“And your testimony is: Bob Mueller did not kick you off because of the content of your texts; he kicked out you off because of some appearance he was worried about,” asked Gowdy.
“If you want to represent what you said accurately I’m happy to answer that question, but I don’t appreciate what was originally said being changed,” Strzok fired back.
“I don’t give a damn what you appreciate Agent Strzok,” Gowdy said. “I don’t appreciate having an FBI agent with an unprecedented level of animus working on two major investigations during 2016.”
