Former FBI special agent Peter Strzok sued the Department of Justice and FBI on Tuesday over his firing in August 2018, which his lawyers argue was"the result of unrelenting pressure from President Trump and his political allies in Congress and the media."
In a complaint filed in D.C. District Court against Attorney General Bill Barr and FBI Director Chris Wray, Strzok's lawyers write that"the campaign to fire Strzok included constant tweets and other disparaging statement by the President, as well as direct appeals" by Trump to fire Strzok made to then-AG Jeff Sessions and Wray.
The lawsuit argues that the FBI and DOJ unlawfully disclosed his private text messages that disparaged Trump before and after the 2016 presidential election -- including the time frame during which Strzok helped lead the agency's investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election and any possible contacts between Trump associates and Russian operatives.
The lawsuit calls for Strzok to receive,"equitable and injunctive relief, including reinstatement and back pay ... as well as actual damages for the violations of the Privacy Act."This is a developing story. Please check back for updates.
I'm sure he will have his day in court but for his lack of candor, his part in the attempted coup & divorce court. He must be trying to raise money for his defence.
Does this mean we get to see all his text messages?
Good riddance.
I hope he sues trump and his pals personally!
The guys a piece
I don’t know what Lisa Page was thinking. Could you imagine this guy over you ready to cum? What kinda faces does he make then. 🤣🤣
Again, there is another Chinese old saying summarizing this perfectly, 恶人先告状, Evil people sue you first!
I really hope he wins his case. This was an incredibly petty act by Trump.
good sue the mfers and hope mc cabe does the same
The Rev. Bob Mueller fired him
I agree with his decision and rationale.
Talk about delusional! U liberal Nazis are amazing! 😂🤣😂🤣Trump2020
I guess Peter never heard the rule don’t fish off the company peer! Don’t text things from company phones you wouldn’t want the world to see. I’m so glad just yesterday the media reported how he is welcome back at the FBI as a visitor all the time. WTF

EdMorrissey Disclosure process should be fun on this one
Hope he finds jail time
EdMorrissey He's also opening himself up to aggressive examination. We'll see how that plays out.
Strozk is a loser and maybe he can learn to code 🤷♂️
No shit.
Wow, not a very smart move...just wait for the discovery motions & evidence production.
Interesting. If he wins, does that implicate the president in obstruction?
While acting like an unstable freak, this man lied to congress and America in a congressional oversight hearing in front of the entire country. The video is still out there. Is this 'stupid day' or something? Do I need to update my calendar?
Oh, that’s beautiful. Nothing we want more than to get this AH on the witness stand for all America to see what a traitor/criminal he is!!!
Laughable. Wait till he ends up being prosecuted and goes to jail
NativeTexan74 Good for him.
And this is a person we would put our trust when around the president? Bye, bye and buy bonds.
He needs to save his money for his criminal defense.
