Strzok thanks supporters as his GoFundMe page raises $250,000 in less than a day

Fired FBI agent Peter Strzok on Tuesday thanked his supporters, writing on Twitter that he is “stunned and humbled” as a GoFundMe page has raised more than $250,000 for him in less than 24 hours.

Strzok’s tweet did not directly address the fundraising campaign, but it came as the account had exceeded its original goal of $150,000 by more than $100,000 in just 23 hours. Its new goal is $350,000.

“Stunned and humbled by the extraordinary outpouring of support already received from thousands of fellow everyday citizens taking time to fight for our country and our shared American ideals,” he tweeted. “Thank you.”

The GoFundMe campaign was launched Monday after news broke that the FBI fired Strzok, a counterintelligence agent whom Republicans have criticized for sending disparaging text messages about President Trump during the 2016 campaign.

The money raised will be placed into a trust “dedicated to covering Pete’s hefty – and growing – legal costs and his lost income,” according to the GoFundMe page.

Strzok was removed from Robert Mueller’s special counsel team investigating Russian interference in the 2016 election after his text messages criticizing Trump surfaced. Strzok exchanged the messages with then-FBI lawyer Lisa Page, with whom he was having an affair. He was also a key figure in the investigation into Hillary Clinton's email use while secretary of State.

Trump on Monday praised Strzok's firing, tweeting “finally” and asking whether the Russia investigation “will be dropped.”

Men Loved Darkness because their deeds were EVIL.

Liberals, Leftists, and Democrats are EVIL.

Is this person a sister-in-law to the Clintons?

They all seem to wind up with $250,000.00 for no work at all.

Some years ago I learned that the difference between ignorance and stupidity, is that ignorance is finite. One can learn, and no longer be ignorant. Stupidity on the other hand seems to be a force of nature. That anybody would give a dime to that cockroach proves the theory to my satisfaction.

~~~

This is how I feel about it.

There are two types of libs being seperated from their money right now by this guy; 1) the really ignorant sheep libs who get their marching orders from the low-information propaganda sources who actually think Strzok is some sort of victim in all this, and 2) the higher IQ but politically deranged types who feel that Strzok is a martyr in the political war that has no rules.

Let them all send their money.

Partner, you ain't seen the half of it yet.

The liberals will re-mortgage their houses and empty their bank accounts in the next two election cycles.

They do not care and will sacrifice everything to win.

Only in 2018 can an FBI agent get fired for lying and for not doing his job, and he is supported with money for his legal defense by Anarchists and Communist Democrats LOL.

Good concept:

Men love darkness when their deeds are evil...

...and darkness perfectly suits the Democrats, Liberals, and Leftists.

So many people hate this country and the Left seems to have endless money, plus, the Session's DOJ is unlikely to ever indict him so the money will be only for civil defenses.
