FBI fires Peter Strzok over anti-Trump texts

The FBI has fired Peter Strzok over anti-Trump text messages he exchanged with his lover during the 2016 presidential campaign, Strzok's lawyer Aitan Goelman confirmed Monday.

Strzok, who led the FBI's investigation into Russia's interference in the 2016 election, was fired on Friday on the orders of FBI Deputy Director David L. Bowdich, Goelman said.

"This decision should be deeply troubling to all Americans," Goelman said in a statement Monday.

The FBI has fired Peter Strzok over anti-Trump text messages he exchanged with his lover during the 2016 presidential campaign, Strzok's lawyer Aitan Goelman confirmed Monday.

Strzok, who led the FBI's investigation into Russia's interference in the 2016 election, was fired on Friday on the orders of FBI Deputy Director David L. Bowdich, Goelman said. The decision overruled a previous FBI decision that Strzok should face a demotion and 60-day suspension.

"This decision should be deeply troubling to all Americans," Goelman said in a statement Monday. Goelman accused Bowdich of bowing to political pressure and said the firing was not based "on a fair and independent examination of the facts."

Special agent Peter Strzok on Monday confirmed that the FBI terminated his employment, presumably over messages disparaging then-candidate Donald Trump and his supporters during the 2016 presidential election.

Shortly after noon, Strzok posted a statement written by his lawyer Aitan Goelman of Zuckerman Spaeder LLP, detailing the events surrounding his termination from the FBI conducted on Friday afternoon.

Deeply saddened by this decision. It has been an honor to serve my country and work with the fine men and women of the FBI. https://t.co/iET9SbeTrv pic.twitter.com/7VTswzjoxE

The fired FBI agent has launched a GoFundMe campaign aimed at raising $150,000 to pay for �hefty� legal costs and lost income. �We are asking you to support a man who has dedicated his life to defending America; to stand up for the freedoms on which this country was built and a government that truly serves the people by protecting all Americans, including dedicated government employees, from constantly being subjected to the whims and influence of politicians,� the campaign description reads.

The campaign has raised $41,060 as of 4:40 p.m. EST.
