The Department of Justice (DOJ) released damning documents on Monday showing how disgraced former FBI agent Peter Strzok used “personal cell phones to conduct FBI Business” and also outlined how his wife found out about his affair with former FBI lawyer Lisa Page.
Strzok is currently suing the DOJ, alleging wrongful termination and hoping to be reinstated as the FBI’s counterespionage division chief. The DOJ hopes that the information they presented in the documents released yesterday will get his lawsuit dismissed.
The documents show that Strzok talked about sensitive work-related details from his personal cell phone with Page.

They also reveal that Strzok may have exposed his wife to sensitive or classified information after she obtained his phone and learned of his affair with Page.

“It is because of those text messages, and the paramount importance of preserving the FBI’s ability to function as a trusted, nonpartisan institution, that Plaintiff was removed from his position, and not because of any alleged disagreement with Plaintiff’s viewpoints on political issues or Tweets from the President,” the motion claims.
Strzok’s lawyers, despite the overwhelming amount of evidence showing that their client committed unprofessional and perhaps illegal behavior, maintain that he is an innocent victim of President Donald Trump.
“While many in law enforcement have faced attacks by this president, Pete Strzok has been a constant target for two years. It’s indisputable that his termination was a result of President Trump’s unrelenting retaliatory campaign of false information, attacks and direct appeals to top officials,” said Aitan Goelman, who works as a partner with Zuckerman Spaeder LLP.
This entire saga may end up with Strzok behind bars. Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper confirmed last year that Strzok received orders from former President Barack Obama to set up the entire conspiracy meant to entrap President Trump:
Former Obama administration director of national intelligence James Clapper admitted that former president Barack Obama gave the order to Peter Strzok to kick off his Operation Crossfire Hurricane targeting of President Donald Trump.
Obama — who also gave a stand-down order on stopping alleged Russian hacking — was personally implicated in the plot according to Peter Strzok and Lisa Page’s texts. Clapper confirms the obvious.
This is James Clapper’s interview with Anderson Cooper, which confirms that Obama ordered Strzok to carry out an Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA), which became the basis for the entire Mueller probe.
“If it weren’t for President Obama we might not have done the intelligence community assessment that we did that set up a whole sequence of events which are still unfolding today, notably Special Counsel Mueller’s investigation. President Obama is responsible for that. It was he who tasked us to do that intelligence community assessment in the first place,” Clapper said in his Anderson Cooper interview.
While Strzok may have delusions of triumphantly returning to the FBI, it is more likely that he will be going to a federal penitentiary sometime soon for his key role in the coup against President Trump.
