Former FBI official Peter Strzok has reacted to his firing from the FBI, saying on a newly-created Twitter account that he was “deeply saddened” by the decision.
Strzok, the former deputy chief of counterintelligence, was fired Friday following an investigation into anti-Trump text messages he exchanged with his mistress, former FBI lawyer Lisa Page.
“It has been an honor to serve my country and work with the fine men and women of the FBI,” Strzok wrote, linking to a Go Fund Me page that has been set up to raise money on his behalf.

Jennifer Kay, a spokeswoman for Strzok’s attorney, confirmed the authenticity of the account.
Strzok’s lawyer, Aitan Goelman, said in a statement that the FBI’s deputy director decided to fire Strzok despite a recommendation from the bureau’s personnel division that he be suspended for 60 days and demoted.

misuse of govt vehicle minimum 30 days off...how about misuse of govt phones etc - extramarital affair- conduct unbecoming ..-An agency may discipline an employee who engaged in consensual adulterous behavior for conduct unbecoming of a federal employee. Suspension is the typical punishment for such misconduct, but removal may be justifiable under certain circumstances.
and his wife still working...ses...?
a joke..no wonder the fbi is screwed up
“Go Fund Me” please...
Hey, Pete, need to switch out the “nd” for a couple new letters.
A good decision applauded by Donald J. Trump and millions of Americans disgusted with misconduct in the “Federal Bureau of Investigation” or is that the “Federal Bureau of Instigation”.
He shouldn’t have acted like such an ass during his testimony to Congress
The guy needs to be sent to the gallows for treason.
We’re like trained monkeys.
His testimony was rather telling. One nasty pr***.
His own actions and his own failure to take responsibility for his actions caused the termination
I can just imagine the turds that have donated to his slush fund.
I hope he has to use EVERY penny AND more for legal fees!!!!
I hope they took his security clearance, if not he will be leaking like Clapper and Brennan to CNN AND NBC .
Nifster, I am not familiar with government employment regs, can you explain what you mean by his OWN recommendation?????
He should have been fired much sooner.
But I guess that's what happens when you have an AG who is "recused from everything".
Why would a non-indicted scumball need a ‘Go Fund me’? He either anticipates an indictment, or he is just a Greedy Sleazeball, taking advantage of Stupid Dems.
He has feelings?
The silence of the uncorrupt FBI agents has been deafening.
May he fill my glass with his tears.
Eventually, he’ll start to stink like the rest of us Walmart shoppers...
His pension status is in question. OF COURSE he is sad.
“That’s why I think Strzok is Brennan, Clapper or Comey’s dupe.”
Giuliani said that Brennan is “the guy” — the root of the entire mess.
