Undated:  Peter Paul Strzok II (like struck; born March 7, 1970)[1] is a former United States Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agent.[2][3][4] Strzok was the Chief of the Counterespionage Section and led the FBI's investigation into Hillary Clinton's use of a personal email server.[5][4][6]

Strzok rose to become the Deputy Assistant Director of the Counterintelligence Division, the second-highest position in that division. He also led the FBI's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 United States elections.[4][7][8][9]

In June and July 2017, Strzok worked on Robert Mueller's Special Counsel investigation into any links or coordination between Donald Trump's presidential campaign and the Russian government.[10][7][9] Mueller removed Strzok from the Russia investigation when Mueller became aware of criticisms of Trump contained in personal text messages exchanged between Strzok and a colleague.[11][12] Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein defended Mueller's response to the text messages.

The revelation of the text messages led Republican congressmen and right wing media to start pushing conspiracy theories to the effect that Strzok was involved in a secret plot an undermine the Trump presidency.[13][14][15][16]

A comprehensive review in February 2018 of Strzok's messages by The Wall Street Journal concluded that "texts critical of Mr. Trump represent a fraction of the roughly 7,000 messages, which stretch across 384 pages and show no evidence of a conspiracy against Mr. Trump".[17]

On August 10, 2018, David Bowdich, the FBI deputy director, fired Strzok.[2]

July 12: Embattled FBI agent Peter Strzok said he wrote an anti-Trump email after the future president insulted the Muslim Gold Star parents of a 27-year-old Army captain who was killed by a car bomb in 2004 in Iraq as he tried to save other troops.

“I think it’s important, when you look at those texts, that you understand the context in which they were made and the things that were going on across America,” Strzok told lawmakers during a tense hearing on Capitol Hill, referring to a text he sent to his lover and FBI colleague Lisa Page in which he wrote “We will stop it,” referring to Trump’s election.

“In terms of the texts — ‘We will stop it’ — you need to understand that was written late at night, off-the-cuff, and in response it to a series of events that included candidate Trump insulting the immigrant family of a fallen war hero,” he said, his voice rising as he was being grilled by Rep. Trey Gowdy.

“And my presumption, based on that horrible, disgusting behavior, was that [Americans] would not elect somebody demonstrating that behavior to be president of the United States,” he continued.

“It was in no way, unequivocally, any suggestion that me, the FBI, would take any action whatsoever to improperly impact the electoral process for any candidate.”
