Mueller Fired FBI’s Strzok for Leaking Classified Trump Intel to Washington Post
True Pundit ^ | December 5, 2017 | Investigative Bureau

Posted on 12/05/2017 8:03:38 AM PST by PJ-Comix

Some truths here: Mueller already knew the FBI’s Peter Strzok didn’t like President Donald Trump yet still hired him, according to FBI and DOJ sources.

But that has little to do with why Strzok was expelled from the Special Counsel’s team.

Embattled FBI Section Chief Strzok has been labeled in recent days as Trump-hating gigolo who had a salacious sexual affair with a married FBI lawyer and for those reasons he could no longer serve on the investigative team of U.S. Special Counsel Robert Mueller.

Yet that, again, has little to do with the real reasons Mueller sacked FBI’s Strzok, a high ranking section chief, sources in the FBI and DOJ said.

When was he fired? I’ll answer that: he wasn’t.

If Strzok is leaking sensitive information to the press, is it too unreasonable to consider the possibility that he has leaked FBI files to Hillary Clinton?

Drudge has two links to Mueller subpoenaing Trump's Deutche Bank records. Is that not big news?

So I am expected to be the official FR poster of everything Mueller?

In the government it is standard practice to place problem employees into HR as a temporary parking place until the system can figure out what to do with the employee.

IMO Strzok in under investigation for leaking by the DOJ. It is why DOJ and the FBI have been reluctant to provide information about him or allow him to speak with the Congressional committees. They are afraid the investigation will be compromised.

Some truths here:

Actually appropriate first words for any article coming from True Pundit, but I would still proceed with caution.

This article is so bogus.

How can this FBI agent be fired for leaking Manafort house raid info
when Manafort or a friend of Manafort could have been source.
It was no longer secret once the FBI raided Manafort.

No. The hack FBI agent was fired because he is anti-Trumped.
Thus biased.

These developments more than justify shutting down the entire corrupt operation.

Maybe there are a lot fewer good cops at FBI than we thought. I was thinking maybe half, now it looks like 20% tops.

Isn’t ‘leaking’ intel of any type a FELONY?....................or does that only apply to us peasants and not to the DC elite?.............

If Mueller did not charge Strzok, you could use the same logic of the left and say that Mueller is obstructing justice. The case should have been turned over to the DoJ. Mueller is hiding something more.

Article says that Strzok leaked details about the great Manaforts NKVD-style raid that only a member of Mueller’s inner circle could know, and thus Mueller identified Strzok. But the old inner circle has continued leaking like a sieve after Strzok’s transfer, and no one else has been fired... Strzok either leaked something Mueller actually wanted to keep hidden (unlike all the stuff Mueller wants leaked), or S had become a liability about to be exposed.

I bet Manafort’s lawyer will be inquiring about Strzok role, especially in designing and conducting the Manafort raid.

“”Federal sources said Mueller fired Dick Strzok one week after the story appeared in the Washington Post and after conducting an internal probe to isolate the leak.””
Coomey did the very same thing.....right????
