Swamp waters are rolling back into DC.

The Biden Administration Just Made Peter Strzok’s Wife A Top SEC Official


President Joe Biden’s Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announced it hired Melissa Hodgman to lead the agency as its acting director of the Division of Enforcement last week.

...
Hodgman, according to the agency press release, has been with the SEC since 2008 as a longtime bureaucrat engaging in a wide range of litigation. Hodgman is also married to another, better-known longtime Washington bureaucrat, Peter Strzok, made famous for his role in the FBI’s deep-state Crossfire Hurricane operation, which featured a witch hunt investigation that sought to incriminate President Donald Trump.

Generally speaking, Biden has taken a page from the Heinrich Himmler playbook: surround yourself with underlings who are 100% devoted and loyal to the cause, and who have little or no underlying moral compass.

Because of who her husband is. It's the same group of elites that "serve" in government for their own gain.

Even with government jobs at the state or local level to get one one must have a politician's reference to apply for them. If one doesn't know a politician an applicant is told off the record go volunteer for one and then reapply for that job 6 months to a year later. At that point they will owe the applicant a favor.

So is this appointment here paying off a previous 'favor' or part of a new deal pun intended.

The book was found in Stephen Miller's desk. It was clearly well used and dogged eared. On the inside cover there was a stamp indicating it was from the library of Donald Trump.

And on this topic, too, you show you are unaware of the facts.

Strzok was biased; he played a role in the railroading of Lieutenant General Michael Flynn and he changed the wording on Hillary Clinton's email server handling from "grossly negligent" to "extremely careless."

"Gross negligence" is a basis for prosecution.

Please, PLEASE learn the facts before posting. It's shocking how people think they are so immersed in knowledge and self-righteousness but are utterly clueless and ignorant.

This is laughable considering that the previous administration fired people for disloyalty at a rate unseen in our country’s recent history. I do not recall you raising any red flags then.
