"Forthcoming Peter Strzok testimony As part of the GOP obstruction efforts, the House Judiciary Committee will have Peter Strzok for a public hearing Thursday, without (at least thus far) providing him with a transcript of his 11-hour testimony before the committee two weeks ago. In his increasingly frequent rants about the Witch Hunt, Trump continues to focus on Strzok's role."
"A June 27, 2017 screed from Marc Kasowitz delivered by hand to Robert Mueller, spinning Jim Comey's descriptions of his own actions as inaccurate and Machiavellian A September 1, 2017 letter from John Dowd to Rod Rosenstein complaining that there was no grand jury investigation into Comey's behavior, the closure of the Hillary email investigation, and (vaguely) the Clinton Foundation"
Information was provided to the FBI regarding matters tied to the Mueller investigation, and disclosure statements will be used going forward. The House Judiciary Committee scheduled a public hearing for Peter Strzok without providing a transcript of his earlier 11-hour testimony. Trump repeatedly attacked the investigation and focused criticism on Strzok. An effort to brief Republican members about election-year tampering did not proceed because committees prioritized Strzok-related issues. The AP published two anti-Comey letters from the Trump team dated June 27 and September 1, 2017 alleging Comey's actions and criticizing the handling of the Clinton email probe. The AP characterized the letters as reflecting a legal strategy to discredit Comey and noted potential relevance after an inspector general report criticized Comey for departing from protocol.
