(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton made the following statement regarding reports that FBI Special Agent Peter Strzok was fired:
The firing of Peter Strzok is another body blow to the credibility of the Mueller special counsel operation. Strzok, who hated President Trump, compromised both the Clinton and Trump investigations that saw Hillary Clinton protected and Donald Trump illicitly targeted. Strzok’s anti-Trump texts show the Russia investigation he helped invent with Clinton campaign operatives is irredeemably compromised. As Mueller’s operation is founded on Strzok’s corrupt activities, it must be shut down.
Judicial Watch recently uncovered documents showing that Strzok insisted on retaining his FBI security clearance before moving to the Mueller team and confirming that Strzok played a pivotal role in the flawed Hillary Clinton email investigation. And, previously released records from the DOJ reveal Strzok’s and Page’s profanity-laced disdain for FBI hierarchy and policies.
Judicial Watch is suing for the emails and text messages between Strzok and former FBI attorney Lisa Page. The communications are of public interest because Strzok and Page were both key investigators in the Clinton email and Trump Russia collusion investigations.
Strzok was reportedly removed from the Mueller investigative team in August 2017 and reassigned to a human resources position after it was discovered that he and Page, who worked for then-Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe, exchanged pro-Clinton and anti-Trump text messages.
Strzok oversaw the FBI’s interviews of former National Security Adviser General Michael Flynn. He changed former FBI Director James Comey’s language about Hillary Clinton’s actions regarding her illicit email server from “grossly negligent” to “extremely careless.” He also played a lead role in the FBI’s interview of Clinton and is suspected of being responsible for using the unverified dossier to obtain a FISA warrant in order to spy on President Trump’s campaign.
On May 21, U.S. District Court Judge Reggie B. Walton ordered the FBI to begin processing 13,000 pages of previously undisclosed emails exchanged exclusively between FBI officials Strzok and Page between February 1, 2015, and December 2017.
No doubt, “Mueller’s folly” is O.V.E.R. for many of the reasons stated.
I’m glad that dirty cop has been fired.
Mueller, the FBI and the DOJ need to be shut down.
All hopelessly corrupted by the Kenyanesian Usurpation.
Barack Obama is NOT a natural born citizen.
There is no one to do any prosecuting because they were all complicit.
I believe you’re right, it’s way overdue.
Shut down the FBI? Really? If your mother had a cold, would you shoot her?
Yeah, all 35,000 FBI agents are complicit. /s
I don’t see or hear any of them speaking “truth to power”. Until someone blows the whistle, all are complicit.
Where are all the honest ones spilling their guts on the corruption?

Two issues. One, Strzok blacked out lots of items sent to congress redacted. Were any of his redactions just to save his skin? JW or congress should ask that someone review his redactions.
Second, if Strzok was working in HR was he protecting liberal partisan employees or making sure new FBI employees were liberal. Did he discredit conservatives looking for promotions or jobs.
FBI=F Troop.
At least at the Top.
God help us if they are all that way.
Yeah, all 35,000 FBI agents are complicit. /s
Okay, now for the short list of trustworthy agents....
This is good for two reasons, actually many but two major reasons.
1. When individuals that have been framed by Strzok sue, the FBI has zero obligation to defend him unless they are also suing the FBI and at which point if his actions were illegal and egregious the FBI may only defend the FBI and throw Strzok under the bus and make an out of court settlement.
2. His firing by a politicized FBI proves his actions were not just egregious but without doubt criminal.
He will now be libel for lawyer fees in the millions of dollars and the FBI will not pay for this.
SEDITION IS A HELL OF CRIME but for Strzok is was a drug high in addition. He was shaping the future of the USA by his sedition. That is a hell of a high. But he failed and now faces hell. I hope he does not meet an untimely end. He knows where all the dirt is buried.
Strzok’s seditious acts in conjunction with his superiors gives Strzok one hell of a motive to tell the truth. Will he fall on his sword for the Ohrs, Comey, Brennan, Clapper, Fusion GPS and the other corrupt? I think not.
MAGA+ = “Make America Even Greater”
Good points all, this is going to get really interesting.
If my mother was a Zomibie a la World War Z, damn straight!
THAT is what the FBI has become!

They are complicit, all of them until they become the tip of the spear rooting out the bad apples
