Cohen to Strzok: If I could give you a Purple Heart, I would

| July 13, 2018

NHSparky sends us a link to Fox News which reports an exchange yesterday between Tennessee Congressman Steve Cohen as he gave FBI agent Peter Strzok a handy in the House Judiciary Subcommittee on the Constitution and Civil Law hearings yesterday;

“Mr. Strzok, I don’t know where to start,” Cohen said as he started his allotted five minutes. “If I could give you a Purple Heart, I would. You deserve one.”

A Purple Heart for getting yelled at. I guess that is why Congressmen can’t award Purple Hearts – they would be throwing them from a parade route, if they could.

From the Tennessean;

Strzok was subpoenaed last week by the House Judiciary Committee to testify publicly about the text messages he exchanged with Page.

In a report to Congress released last month, Horowitz said Page wrote to Strzok in a text message, “(Trump’s) not ever going to become president, right?” In response, Strzok wrote, “No. No he’s not. We’ll stop it.”

Another thing that the FBI can’t do.

Strzok faced hostile Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee and the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, who pointed to his text messages with Page in 2015 and 2016 as evidence of bias in the Russia and Clinton investigations. Strzok and Page were having an extramarital affair at the time they were texting.

Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Texas, brought up the affair during one of the most heated parts of the hearing, asking Strzok whether he gave his wife the same “innocent” look he was giving Congress members.

Democrats shouted Gohmert down as Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman, D-N.J., yelled “you need your medication.”

Strzok angrily replied that Gohmert’s question “goes more to a discussion about your character.”

Tennessee has democrats in congress?
I thought it was conservative state.
Disappointed.

David

Depends on which Tennessee. There are three. If you don’t know that basic fact, don’t go to Tennessee.

NHSparky

Forget about it, Jack.

It’s Memphis. And yeah, what David said.

Commissioner Wretched

I’d like to give Mr. Strzok something, if I could …

Twenty years in Leavenworth, for starters.

OR give him a real “bleeding heart”, that cohen is a pussified p.o.s., the worthless bastard even to come up with giving that traitor a “purple heart” damn, where do we get all these sicko bastards in our govt?

TopGoz

The hearing was infuriating to watch. The Democrats were jumping all over themselves to defend and protect Mr. Strzok; not because they believe he didn’t break any rules, but because they agree with what he did.

Mason

That’s the problem that always comes back to bite them in the ass. The ends justify the means, particularly to the left, but accepted by too many on the right too.

Both Cohen and Strzoh are COCKSUCKERS…

It’s worse that that, Yef, far worse. Many of us voted for Trump. That automatically makes us bigots, racists, Fascists, Nazis, and misogynists, too.

2/17 Air Cav

I don’t care which t you replace with an n. If you get it wrong, but it makes sense to you, that’s just dandy.

Casey

I think you forgot homophobic, although racist seems to be in the lead these days.

Jeff LPH 3, 63-66

Hey Yef, I guess your liberal friends got you a little brain washed. I’ve had people I know tell me that I was a racist because I did not vote for Herr obama. I vote with my head and not with my Heart and being an Indy on the conservative side, I also vote for a persons policy on what they will do for OUR AMERICA and not for the color of their skin or their RELIGION. Let’s put it this way, I’m A Jew and find it offensive from peeps like you who call anyone a racist who calls people that you like, a name that you don’t like. ChipNASA didn’t diss your buddy cohen because of his religion. Hope I made this lima charlie.

Yef

But, but, Steve Cohen descends from the Kohen Gadol of Yerushalayim. He can’t be wrong, can he?

Jeff LPH 3, 63-66

Here is the perfect example of what I mean Yef. Right after 2012 re election, I was sitting on the bench outside the bagel tree one Saturday morning waiting for our breakfast crew when a greatest generation young lady and I got into a discussion about the election. In the 55 and over community where I lived, I consider myself a minority as an Indy but conservative. When I told her that at the time, I did not vote for obama and right away she called me and others whom did also not vote for him a bunch of racists. She really flipped out when I told her that I once told my late Mom who was a dem that if Hitler were alive and a dem running for office in the US, she would have to vote for him since she voted only on party lines. WOW, so to make a short story long, after she calmed down, the conversation turned to music and I find out her name was Marion Weiss who along with her husband were the songwriters/producers for the New Jersy group Ronnie & the Hi-lites “I wish that we were married” on Joy 1962. She opens her wallet and there is a pic of the cover with the group on it. Nothing personal Yef but this is the way it is with the dems.

Ex-PH2

Stow it, Yef. My sister’s Jewish. I’m not. Likewise,her two sons (my nephews) are Jewish as are their wives and multiple offspring.

Put a sock in it now or I’ll get a big stick and make you chase it.

Yef

So much violence.

I was just lite trolling Jeff into wasting a 1000 words.
You know I thrive on words….

Bobo

I’m sure that most of us here have friends who had to have their family receive their Purple Hearts before a graveside service. For Cohen, who was coming of age at the height of the Vietnam War, one would think that he had some personal interaction with Purple Heart recipients and their families. For someone in that position to use that award as a form of hyperbole to show respect to someone who was having a hard day because he chose to cheat on his wife and run most likely corrupt investigations into Clinton and Trump is a disgrace.

He is facing a primary in August. If he wins that, given his district, he’ll most likely be reelected.

OWB

Thanks for the info about his running for reelection – sorry – asked my question below before seeing your answer here.

CPT11A

Dude graduated HS in 1966, yet somehow went straight off to Vanderbilt. 58,000 real Americans died in that war he skipped, but he has an opinion on our awards? Joking or metaphor, shut the fuck up, Steve.

Rich

Had polio when he was five. Might have made him medically ineligible, but could have taken advantage of student deferment(s) as did many of privilege in his generation. Joe Biden had 7. The current CINC had 5. Four for college, one for bad hooves.

Claw

A little insight info (from the 1 Dec 69 Draft Lottery) as it pertains to the comment(s):

Cohen’s number was 31.

Biden was too old (born 1942) to be included in the pool.

The current CINC’s number was 356, with the highest number that was called for induction in 1970 being 195.

Sparks

Thank you and well said. Here’s hoping he’s defeated in the primary next month. But then again, he represents a similar district to Babbling Corrine Brown, the Tenn. 9th which includes Memphis. They do love their ‘gubmunt’ handouts there.

OWB

Disgusting in every way. Watching these clowns has become painful. Such a waste.

There is no defense of what Strzok did or wanted to do. Even saying such things is indefensible. And in that regard, it matters not who he/they supported, voted for, their voting record, or anything else. He proved himself unworthy of public trust.

OWB

Is Cohen running for reelection? His ignorant statement needs the widest possible circulation.

OWB………….YES!!!

This shit is going to make Watergate look like child’s play by the time all is said and done.

So much for the moral high ground, fuckers.

The Other Whitey

Indeed. And now they’ve resorted to insisting that the blatant corruption isn’t really corruption. Right out of the Clinton playbook, it depends on what the definition of “is” is.

Mason

Calls Trump supporters ignorant hillbillys, but that’s not what he meant.

Deckie

Yeah he chalked that one up to some kind of hometown rivalries… never rolled my eyes so hard in my life.

Bobo

I’m waiting for the reaction from the Dems doing everything that they can to support him the next time a police officer is found to have made racist comments via e-mail or text. I’m sure that it will be something along the lines of it being the officer’s political views and not indicating any bias toward members of the same disparaged race whom he had arrested.

NHSparky

That was good, Bobo. You almost got through typing that with a straight face.

The Other Whitey

What an assbag. As for Strzok, he was somewhere in the league of OJ and Blowjob Bill in terms of credibility, not even trying to be believable as he lied his philandering ass off.

Veritas Omnia Vincit

Strzok wants us to extend a courtesy to him that he’s never extended to anyone else, that is ignore his own written words as evidence….it’s an interesting revelation of the level of arrogance and inherent sense of superiority that he has regarding himself and his position.

I’m curious as to where that high degree of self esteem comes from, it can’t be personal honor as he’s a know liar and adulterer. He’s unable to honor his vows to a spouse yet he expects us to hold him in high regard as a human and an FBI agent? I think not sir, you are an execrable example of the worst type of human.

What Strzok did is inexcusable for someone in a position of trust with the power to investigate and ruin lives. He has harmed the FBI image along with his like minded colleagues to a degree I’ve never seen in my life time…and Ike was president when I was born so I’ve been around the block a few hundred times…

Strzok deserves to be stripped of his position, stripped of any pension, and referred for criminal investigation into misuse of government property and misuse of position of authority as an LEO. His name should be long remembered for his lies, his deceptive practices and held without honor for all eternity.

Fuck this guy, this lying sack of shit pretending to be a man of honor and integrity while being neither.

chooee lee

My father killed flying the Hump 8/7/1945 on his second mission, MIA in the Burma jungle for 28 years and no Purple Heart. This dick wad wants to give Strzok one for an argument?

OWB

This. You, your family, and most especially your father are why this casual and totally inappropriate reference to a Purple Heart Medal infuriates me.

As opposed to a friend who last night showed me the one he earned. I was honored to see it. Didn’t even have to ask – he would have preferred to not earn one. Also know it was for far more than being asked about abusing the use of office equipment and an official position from a cushy office.

I still can’t understand why he thought it was a good idea to volunteer to go on national TV in front of congress. He looks like a smug, self-righteous dick. Shares that with Comey.

These people do detestable things that taint their reputations, professionally and personally, and tank the reputation of their agency and then sit there with the confidence to lie about it and know they’ll get away with it.

It could be both. I remember a week or two back him saying he would appear voluntarily, but that might have been preempting a subpoena. Even in criminal cases, willing victims will be subpoenaed just to force them if it comes to that.

Mason; I agree. I watched hearings on Fox yesterday and he had that smug shit eating grin on his face. One of his dem peeps told him that the hearings was a distraction and the Admin. should be doing other things to improve the country.

Mason

Right. Like finding out your only general law enforcement agency at the federal level is filled with politically motivated people who are letting high profile politicians off the hook for major felonies isn’t trying to improve the country.

Democrats are too busy trying to shut down ICE and move to the latest crisis to acknowledge the massive corruption of the previous administration.

Skippy

And this turd still has a T/S and a job at the FBI
WTF is going on here

Mason

I was wondering the same. He’s got to be well connected and must be union. I think it speaks more to the FBIs character not that they allowed this to happen in the first place, but that they haven’t swiftly taken care of the problem. They immediately went into defense mode, which just makes it look like this is very widespread (at the top anyway).

rgr769

How does an FBI agent at his level keep a TS/SCI clearance for over a year after he fails his routine lie detector exam? Only in a thoroughly corrupt FBI HQ, that is how.

Bobo

Rumor has it (the wife of one of my coworkers is an FBI agent inside the beltway) that he was escorted out of FBI HQ building last month after they pulled his clearance. He’s still employed by the FBI on paid admin leave.

Ex-PH2

Does that mean he is one step away from the unemployment line?

One can only hope. Don’t toy with me, Bobo.

Mason

I’d assume it is. I think all the agents have to maintain a TS clearance, but I could be wrong.

Wouldn’t be surprised if they kept him on the rolls just for these hearings. If he wasn’t an FBI employee, the company-sized contingent of FBI lawyers sitting behind him wouldn’t have any sway.

Much like the old Church Committee of the mid 1970s.

Last week, when my fridge quit running and keeping things cold, I lived on crackers and whatever didn’t present a threat of botulinum intoxication. I kept telling myself that the people of Venezuela have it far worse than I do or did. You can get so constipated from this kind of thing (or eating leftover Korean War rations) that your blue eyes might turn brown.

But that has changed, since my fridge was repaired.

And now, every time I employ the commode and push the handle down, I will think of people like Cohen, because he is in the same category as your GI tract byproducts.

I think they are digging deeper and deeper holes for themselves with these shenanigans and it has payback down the road. We must be watchful, all of us. The blatant conceit is strongly embedded in this bunch.

That seedituous arrogant bastard was a sight to behold. He has no bearing and was pretty impressed with himself that he got caught in a coup attempt while covering up for Clinton. That guy is exactly the type of snake fuck that should be no where near power. His is the face of a domestic enemy in a position of power willing to undermine and cover up what he wishes. Should be in jail. The FBI is massively corrupt organization from the very top and should be purged. All of the federal LEO dapartments need to stop relying so much on hiring lying deceptive psychopaths that have no issue “passing” the flawed polygraph test. This is what you get when you do.

Wounded Marine Vet: ‘Disgraceful’ & ‘Disgusting’ for Dem Rep to Suggest Strzok Deserves Purple Heart

Fox News Link

A wounded veteran slammed a Democratic lawmaker for suggesting embattled FBI official Peter Strzok deserves a Purple Heart for enduring Republicans’ “attacks” during a House hearing on Capitol Hill Thursday.

“If I could give you a Purple Heart, I would,” Rep. Steve Cohen (D-Tenn.) said, accusing his GOP colleagues of attempting to undermine Strzok and Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe.

“It’s astonishing to me that you’d be put on trial as you have today,” Cohen said.

The Purple Heart is a military honor bestowed on those who are wounded in combat or given posthumously to those killed in combat.

Marine Staff Sgt. Johnny “Joey” Jones (Ret.) — a Purple Heart recipient who lost both of his legs and suffered other permanent injuries in an IED explosion in Afghanistan — said Cohen’s remarks were “disgraceful.”

Cohen has made a lot of ‘friends’ with his Purple Heart comment. Hope they remember this come Election Day.

Ex-PH2

Yes, the backlash is simmering and has only just begun. Mr. Cohen is an ass, as is Mr. Strzok. One can only hope that they choke on their beluga caviar at an unfortunate moment.
