I think he was a moron for doing what he did, but he may have a case. With the IG report saying there was no political bias in his work on the Clinton investigation despite his poor judgement and the pressure from Trump being so public, there is a mound of evidence on his side of the case. That's before getting into possible other evidence we are unaware of regarding the handling of other personnel situations.

Quote:That deputy, David Bowdich, overruled the recommendation of a disciplinary official that Strzok be merely demoted and suspended, and denied him the chance to appeal, the complaint says.

If you are putting that in the complaint it could come across as admitting what you did was wrong, but the punishment was too harsh.  Now I could also see that they can argue, "Hey he didn't do anything wrong, but even the guy who thought he did didn't go so far as firing him."
