Twitterverse Blows Up After GoFundMe Campaign Opens for Peter Strozk
A day after former FBI Agent Peter Strzok was fired from the FBI, a GoFundMe campaign was created. The Twitterverse however, had quite a bit to say after money started to pour in for the anti-Trump agent.
You think this isn't just payola being funneled to Strzok from the DNC to buy his silence? Please, of course it is. pic.twitter.com/WKa8Y8hTcQ

I thought I was bad with money until I saw people were giving theirs to Peter Strzok

So the Democrats are now making rich and famous Comey and Strzok, both of whom were central in undermining the FBI and helping Hillary Clinton lose the presidency. We're 15 minutes away from Democrats funding a GoFundMe for Trump.

Comey’s gotta be watching this Strzok GoFundMe thing and thinking, “I could have had a Lamborghini”

Wow. Now I could say that every dime raised will go to free women and children who are isis slaves – but did Peter Strzok say that? No. He’s keeping the $300k he raised in the last 24 hrs, for his service to the great nation and servicing that he provided his mistress. https://t.co/BPqzlORZDK

Data journalists should turn the McCabe and Strzok fundraising hauls into an analysis: “Exactly how shitty an FBI agent do you need to be to make an even million in ResistanceBucks?”

Of course, politicians, including President Trump chimed in about the disgraced agent.
Strzok started the illegal Rigged Witch Hunt – why isn’t this so-called “probe” ended immediately? Why aren’t these angry and conflicted Democrats instead looking at Crooked Hillary?

.@TGowdySC responds to accusations from Strzok's lawyer: "Peter Strzok didn't need any help demonizing himself. He had that fully covered." #TheStory https://t.co/JXUeNWcQDY pic.twitter.com/FD7ROdz8WH

Then there were those who slammed the agent for his affair.

There were also questions about how quickly Strzok received the coveted verified blue check mark from the social media company.
So Peter Strzok got his blue check mark in less than 24 hours. Curious if that is standard “waiting” time

Stephen Miller couldn’t help but point out the hypocrisy of it all.

Needless to say, the Twitterverse will continue this conversation for days to come.
