Fired FBI agent Peter Strzok says he doesn't 'see any basis' for Durham investigation

Former FBI agent Peter Strzok questioned the need for U.S. Attorney John Durham's criminal inquiry into the origins of the Russia investigation.

In the midst of a book tour, Strzok, who played a key role in opening the FBI's Crossfire Hurricane investigation that was later spun into Robert Mueller's special counsel investigation, appeared for an interview on MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell Reports on Thursday and said he can't see "see any basis" for the so-called "investigation into the investigators."

"Well, look, I know that I haven’t done anything wrong, let alone illegal. Nor had anybody else that I worked with around the senior leadership, around the team in 2016, so I’m not quite sure why his investigation is still continuing, because I just don’t see any basis for it," he said.
