Disgraced FBI agent Peter Strzok loses long-running lawsuit over firing for anti-Trump texts
NYP ^ | 09 24 2025 | Anthony Blair

Disgraced former FBI agent Peter Strzok has lost his long-running lawsuit claiming he was illegally fired for sending messages attacking President Trump during his first term.

Strzok had argued that he was only fired in 2018 because Trump reacted furiously to texts the agent exchanged while investigating ties between Russia and the Republicans’ 2016 campaign.

But US District Judge Amy Berman Jackson ruled Tuesday that Strzok failed to show it violated his First Amendment rights.

The judge, appointed by President Barack Obama, praised Strzok as having been “among the FBI’s leading counterintelligence experts” — but ruled that there was “no genuine dispute of material fact” to fight the firing.

While ruling that the fired agent’s rights were not violated, Jackson did not rule on whether Strzok’s firing was “appropriate.”

The full ruling is under seal, but the summary showed it rejected Strzok’s argument that he had a deal with the FBI which said he would not be fired for his action, but merely demoted and suspended for 60 days.

His attorney, Aitan Goelman, did not respond immediately to requests for comment.

He didn’t just text things against Trump and in favor of Hillary Clinton. He was essentially running the investigations of both Trump and Hillary at that time.

Jail is for commoners. Strzok is in the club.

Strzok didn't get fired for bad speech. He got fired for being a bad agent that didn't follow FBI employee rules. And one of the most liberal judges in DC agrees. Ouch.

What was the settlement for other than “wrongful” termination? I would have thought termination of other suits against the FBI would have been part of the settlement. But hey, it is just taxpayer money.
