sweet! more grandstanding theater.
meanwhile, Strozk remains employed by DoJ and nothing will happen to him
I think when that was tweeted out was after Goodlatte said he would be if he didn't answer certain questions. But obviously during that break they took to vote, something changed because the FBI loosened the refusals and he talked about the FISA warrant and the Dossier and how it ended up at the FBI vis Bruce Ohr. Pretty sure the contempt threat went away, but some of the press missed those two big revelations when he openly talked about the Dossier, verifying the chain of custody and the fact that there were multiple versions, that John Solomon reported on a few days ago. Also when he was asked whether or not he was involved in the FISA application i the Russia investigation, Strzok was careful with his answer and made it clear him saying no he wasn't involved in the FISA application that it was the one on Carter Page. To me that is telling that he was so careful to distinguish it was the one on Page. To me that may mean there was other FISA warrants on other people beside Page, my guess is Manafort at a minimum.
Bottom line I doubt we see any contempt theater and likely wouldn't have if he hadn't expanded his testimony. But they bluffed him and got more info. And I figure once the FISA IG report drops Strzok is toast. No longer a need to throttle his testimony any longer.
