Strzok said the primary reason he wrote the book is to illustrate 'first and foremost, the counterintelligence threat that I see in Donald Trump,' adding that the administration's dealings with Russia left him 'highly suspicious' Trump was compromised by the Russians. In his new book, Strzok wrote: 'I deeply regret casually commenting about the things I observed in the headlines and behind the scenes, and I regret how effectively my words were weaponized to harm the Bureau and buttress absurd conspiracy theories about our vital work.'

The ex-FBI agent told the Associated Press Saturday he felt persecuted by the president and received menacing phone calls and messages from strangers in the wake of his anti-Trump text messages coming to light. Having spent more than 20 years as an FBI counterintelligence agent, Strzok said he regrets sending the messages to Page, which he said undermined the important work of the agency. Strzok has penned a book, Compromised: Counterintelligence and the Threat of Donald J.

The texts expressed support for then-Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton and prompted the president to personally blast Strzok on Twitter part of a wider conspiracy against his presidency in U.S. Strzok was fired from the bureau after text messages from 2016 were released that revealed anti-Trump remarks between himself and FBI lawyer Lisa Page. Ex-FBI agent Peter Strzok, who was assigned to investigate allegations of collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign, said President Donald Trump represents a 'counterintelligence threat.'
