The emails reveal Strzok’s insistence that he retain all the authorities he held as a deputy assistant director (DAD) in the counterintel division (CD) – including his security clearance – after his reassignment to Special Counsel Mueller’s office. (2/10)

In a 7/13/17 FBI email, Strzok says: “Broadly I need to be able to act at least in the capacity of my old CD DAD job – approve NSLs [national security letters], conduct [redacted], declassify information, [redacted] agent travel, requisitions, etc.” (3/10)

In that same 7/13/17 FBI email, Strzok continues on to emphasize one of his investigative authorities specifically: “Of those, the most problematic and one of the most essential is declassification authority.” (4/10)

In response, FBI assistant director of the Counterintel Division William Priestap assured Strzok he’d remain free to act as he did as deputy assistant director of the counterintel division & that he’d remain on the FBI’s books as a “floating DAD.” (5/10)

Strzok was reportedly removed from Mueller’s team in August 2017 & reassigned to HR after it was discovered that he & FBI lawyer Lisa Page exchanged texts during the Clinton investigation that raise questions about anti-Trump & pro-Clinton bias. (6/10)

Strzok oversaw the FBI’s interviews of Trump's former National Security Adviser Mike Flynn, changed Comey’s language about Clinton’s actions from “grossly negligent” to “extremely careless”, and played a lead role in the FBI’s interview of Clinton. (7/10)
