FBI official Peter Strzok was escorted from bureau headquarters on Friday amid a disciplinary review of anti-Trump text messages he exchanged with another FBI official, his attorney said in a statement Tuesday.
“Just as he has been for the last 20 years, Pete Strzok remains a proud FBI agent who wants to continue working to keep the American people safe,” said Strzok’s attorney, Aitan Goelman.
Goelman said that Strzok remains an FBI employee. It is unclear if he will be fired soon or whether his access to FBI headquarters was restricted.
The Department of Justice’s inspector general (IG) referred Strzok and four other FBI officials to the bureau for disciplinary action for politically-charged text messages they sent in 2016 and 2017.

This man should be fired and striped of his pension. To tolerate this kind of conduct is to condone it. The FBI should be in the LAW ENFORCEMENT business – NOT POLITICS!!!!!!
I have never believed that action should be taken against anyone without positive proof. In this case there is NO DOUBT and these people should be fired and stripped of any benefits. I am not talking from a political side here. I’m independent and I would take the same stand regardless of which side this came on. We absolutely cannot have our law enforcement people pulling things like this. Individual agents are entitled to their political beliefs and votes. But we cannot allow them to try to influence others or interfere with elections.
They should be fired without any benefit
FIRE his treasonous ass and get it over with. WE THE PEOPLE have something to say about that and we want that SCUM GONE and SWEPT out into the street with the debris where they belong
Goelman said that Strzok remains an FBI employee. Only a government employee would still be employed. The rest of us would be in the unemployment line.
You’re 110% right JOE. Everyone following this story should get in touch with their congress rep and DEMAND that this guy be put in the road.
He should be working…… in a chain gang!
Fire him and all the four other unnamed agents and take away any pension they have.
After he and some others have behaved like a bunch of lawless corrupt POS. I wouldn’t trust him, he’s been tarnished by Obama, and the Clintons. I wouldn’t trust him to watch my dog. When the FBI start letting crooks like Hitlary go and try to go after an innocent man trying to fix what Obozo has destroyed then the FBI can not be trusted. Watching the way the IG answered questions I felt like he was ducking and covering for someone.
I keep hearing about the good men & women of the FBI…well I never see any of them stepping up to the plate to tell the truth on greatest conspiracy against a duly elected president…? Nothing but cricket and whitewash!
Time to make sure your weapons are in good working order
Fire the bastard.
“A proud member”… of a few crooks at the agency. They left the building with one out of a bushel. Now get the rest !!!
Maybe his attorney ought to be escorted along with this rogue agent if he thinks this FBI agent is so good! It tells all about the people around this jerk!
So nothing will happen to this whiny little liberal. Another traitor to the constitution just walks away.
Fire him now, please DOJ. You can do it. He is shameless, and the rest of the very FBI agents and employees should continue the excellent job that they are doing.
I believe to get anything accomplished by the DOJ that the little piss ant, Jeff Sessions needs to be removed from the government. He is a dismal failure on all accounts. Seems to like the title but afraid of the duties involved. Trump should boot his sorry ass back to where he came from.
