Peter Strzok was an effective Russia investigator

Arguably one of the best the FBI had.

I agree with others in that this is the primary reason Dump had him fired and not his personal texts and emails.

Dump is protecting his Russian allies.

has been advised to get rid of anyone who can corroborate Comey's account of his private meeting with Trump. Putin would surely do that.

Where are they going?

What could stop a private citizen from corroborating Comey’s account?

Assface is all full of hisself lately.

but, the prosecution will have to take extra time building up the integrity of "fired" FBI officials, and it will also make it easier for the defense to attack their integrity. However, Trump is attacking this like the proverbial bull in a china shop, so it will hopefully not be a huge deal in the long run.

deep cover Russian moles, who'd wormed their way into the US via Canada and academic visas.

The best interogator in the Senate of drumpfian swamp candidates was Al Franken, so they framed him and self-serving Dems pushed him out of office so shine up their MeToo credits showing total disregard for the truth.

The best Russian investigator is fired from FBI, even when the Internal Investigations did not recommend this course of action. Thnk this was part of the obstruction that's occurring. Fire everyone at the top of the Russian investigation so they look bad in court. There's nothing this asshole administration won't do to make us more susceptible to Russian takeover and rule through their agent orange.
