A top FBI official accused Trump-hating former agent Peter Strzok of doing long-term damage to the bureau’s reputation with a “sustained pattern of bad judgment” and “selfishness” in the newly released draft of the 2018 letter firing him.
David Bowdich, who was deputy director of the bureau when he penned the brutally harsh draft of the dismissal letter, told Strzok the damage he caused to the bureau would last for years. He referred specifically to Strzok’s use of “an FBI device,” an apparent reference to the shocking text messages sent on bureau cell phones between Strzok and his paramour, Lisa Page, in which vowed to stop former President Trump from being elected in 2016.
“While there is no doubt your 21 years of service to the organization cannot and should not be erased, it is difficult to fathom the repeated, sustained errors of judgment you made while serving as the lead agent in two of the most high profile investigations in the country,” Bowdich wrote in the August 8, 2018 letter. “Though the Office of the Inspector General found no evidence of bias impacted any of your or the FBI’s investigative actions or decisions, your sustained pattern of bad judgment in the use of an FBI device has called into question for many of the decisions made during both the Clinton e-mail investigation and the initial states of the Russian Collusion investigation.”
“In short, your repeated selfishness has called into question the credibility of the entire FBI.”

I don’t know, sounds like the letter absolves the fbi and Strozwhatever of any meaningful wrongdoing.
“Though the Office of the Inspector General found no evidence of bias impacted any of your or the FBI’s investigative actions or decisions”
*chuckle*
Dishonesty and dishonor. It’s all they got.
“In short, your repeated selfishness has called into question the credibility of the entire FBI.”
Hate to say this but the FBI has NO credibility at all.
Look at all the changes the FBI has made to ensure something like this never happens again. /s

You mean the fact that Bowdich is gone?
The FBI wasn’t upset with what Strzok did... that was FBI policy... only how he got caught.
Obviously, the solution to “damage he caused to the bureau” that “would last for years” is to minimize it by making such misconduct the norm.
Doesn’t he still work there?
No, he was fired and is suing for back-pay.
It should last forever. The FBI should be disbanded.
Sounds like it SHOULD be erased. Or maybe not erased so much as held up as a example of corruption run wild and something which, subsequently, should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
It isn’t brutal. It is pathetic. The letter says Strzok didn’t act out of bias. That is bull poop. Yes he most certainly did.
A sternly crafted reprimand. Yes indeed.
Just 1 brick in a corrupt, garbage organization.
The FIB needs to go. Nothing more than leftist brownshirts.
It was reported and his signature was shown on a CIA document that Peter Strozk signed this official government document showing that he was in reality a CIA station chief. Just curious, how can he be fired from the FBI when he was not an official employee of that agency? The games the deep state plays.
Too little, too late. Virtually everybody on the left that was involved in these scandals and corruption are now millionaires and living the high life. Meanwhile, there hundreds, if not thousands of DJT supporters be persecuted and losing life savings defending themselves from political prosecutions.
Where, when and how will all this end? ? ?
So the letter says he was fired for using his FBI cell phone to text his side piece...
THATS their only concern???
