In the "it's about fucking time" department, Peter Strzok has finally been fired from the FBI, it was announced yesterday. Although apparently he was officially fired Friday.
My impression is that the Deep State apparatus in the FBI that continues without him did everything they could to prevent and slow-walk his dismissal, and if it wasn't for public accountability, Peter Strzok would still be in the FBI to rig future investigations.
I'm not at all confident of the FBI after his dismissal, precisely because of their reluctance to dismiss him, new Director Christopher Wray's dismissal of the notion that there is corruption in the FBI or a Deep State, and the lack of re-opening cases like Lois Lerner and the Hillary e-mail investigation. And the disproportionate aggressiveness with which they STILL pursue the Mueller investigation. Based on the number of FBI and DOJ officials related to these cases, ALL these cases should be dismissed, or at least re-started with neutral players from outside the preceding DOJ/FBI corruption. The players who have either been fired or resigned are just the tip of the iceberg. Even the FBI inspector general's reports were soft on the level of visible corruption of Strzok, Page and the Bruce Ohr/Nellie Ohr/Fusion GPS/FISA warrant corruption.
The fact that no one in the vast FBI reported or complained about abuses of leadership that abused FISA surveillance on false evidence to spy on the Trump administration and attempted to remove him from office with agents sent to trick and bait them by the FBI itself, the FBI remains corrupt and untrustworthy, even without Strzok , Page and other players. They are gone, the corrupt DNC-subservient FBI machine still lives.
