I watched it too.

Trump is doing the work of Putin's intelligence services.

It's comletely obvious.

Still needs another $200 thousand.

Good luck Peter Strzok, and thank you for your service!

The Go Fund Me page explicitly says it will also be used to replace his lost income, as if he were going to starve otherwise.

Further, based on what has come out...counting on his wife to support him financially might not be a fool proof plan 😉. I too gave a small amount to show support. His lawyer will eat through a few hundred thousand in no time.

The many small donations add up, when we all pitch in!

Peter Strzok was given a reprimand and a demotion; he did not deserve to be fired. This is strictly a mean-spirited and politically-motivated action by our president*. The GoFundMe donations will help Strzok's defense lawsuit to at least get him the pension he deserves, if nothing else.
