They’re hoping that this guy gets thrown to the wolves and the investigation ends there, but I don’t think that’s the end of it.
I agree.
CIRCA December 2018--Comey Denies Knowing Clinton Law Firm Helped with ‘Pee’ Dossier:
‘I Don’t Remember the Name Perkins Coie at All’…
Breitbart | 10 Dec 2018 | Aaron Klein / FR Posted by E. Pluribus Unum
In what could become a possible issue for James Comey, the former FBI director repeatedly stated in testimony to the House Judiciary Committee that he “never” knew the author of the infamous anti-Trump dossier had been retained to do his work by a U.S.-based law firm. The law firm in question, Perkins Coie, reportedly funded the controversial Fusion GPS to conduct the anti-Trump work on behalf of Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC). Those efforts resulted in the largely-discredited dossier written by former British spy Christopher Steele.
Despite saying he "did not know" Steele had been hired by Perkins Coie, the FISA warrant to spy on former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page (signed three times by Comey) stated the FBI had information that Steele had been hired by a “US-based law firm.”
It specifically stated the FBI “was approached by an identified U.S. person who indicated to Source #1 [Steele] that a U.S.-based law firm had hired the identified U.S. person to conduct research regarding Candidate #1’s ties to Russia.”
Comey made his remarks during testimony on Friday, Dec 2018.
Here is a transcript of the relevant portions of Comey’s latest testimony as it relates to Perkins Coie (linked):
