No, Mueller had Strzok reassigned to avoid "an appearance of impropriety". There has never been a finding that Strzok''s supposed political views had any effect on his investigative work; he worked at the FBI for more than two decades and was considered one of its best counterintelligence agents.
His firing for essentially voicing political views that most American sha ...[text shortened]... s level of scrutiny of law enforcement officers' personal views was extended to every investigation.
Of course not, that is why it was erased! DUH!
@metal-brain saidWhodey was trying to imply the glitch is nothing more than convenient cover-up by Trump haters. So I reminded him that the DOJ has been headed by Trump appointees.
Who? What republican? What does that have to do with anything? Why is that even important?
@no1marauder saidThey're called DINOs
They're obviously Democrats in disguise; don't you appreciate the depths of this nefarious conspiracy?

Trouble following the conversation when it's not Sean Hannity, telling you what to believe?

@vivify saidYou mean like Comey? Some republicans are Trump haters too, even those he appointed. I don't see what that has to do with anything.

@metal-brain saidBy "Trump haters" I meant Democrats. Liberals. Lefties. We're talking about Whodey, after all.

@metal-brain saidIf FBI agents vote Democrat, aren't they biased ?
What do elections have to do with it?
So, what does bias have to do in the execution of their daily jobs ?

@mghrn55 saidIn this case we will never know the extent of the bias since it was conveniently erased. It was enough to remove him from the investigation so it was probably pretty bad.

This was not a normal bias. It was so bad they covered it up.

@whodey saidYou mean the stench of all those guilty pleas where there were real crimes committed by those very close to Trump, now he calls some of them rats, a mafia term? That kind of stench?
Speaking of Strzok, I smell Trump supporters here.
Say, are there any married women here I can have an affair with who also smell the stench?

@sonhouse saidWhat is it... 7 guilty pleas..?

With stuff like a 20-something year old making false statements, etc.?
Please, Sonhouse, bring out the list! Give us the full victory dance & celebration! I want to know just exactly how awesome this Mueller probe has been.

That's some inefficient erasing! At best, they've showed that Strzok, like most Americans didn't think much of the Donald, though there are critical texts directed towards Erik Holder, Bernie Sanders, Chelsea Clinton and others. https://www.wsj.com/articles/fbi-agent-removed-from-russia-probe-held-dim-views-of-holder-sanders-1513274691
There's this gem:
But Strzok also says, “I’m worried about what happens if HRC is elected.” He complains that a fact-checker dismissed Bernie Sanders’s criticism of Clinton as too close to fossil-fuel lobbyists even though “everything Sanders said about Clinton is true … This is clear and utter bias by the media especially the NYTIMES, WAPO, and CNN who if you look at all of them have large donors for Clinton. The fact citing source they used is owed by a newspaper which publically endorsed Clinton.”

Strzok seems to have been pretty opinionated about a lot of things, but there is a distinct lack of evidence that he actually did anything in the investigation that was improperly biased against Trump.

A strategy that has been being systematically fulfilled over the last months.
That's a rather juicy tidbit from the deep state, no?
