Good morning
On dog watch this morning — one of the bulldogs attacked her older sibling last night. Don’t know what that was all about. Cabin fever?

Who are the FBI employees?
Which high-ranking FBI officials are still employed at the FBI who were also employed during the time of the FISA abuse allegations? I have identified two based off of the information provided on the FBI website; Bill Priestap and Dana Boente.
While Priestap has announced his retirement, he has not retired yet, and he is directly involved with the vetting of the dossier and its use in obtaining the FISA warrant on Carter Page. We learned in the Nunes Memo that Priestap testified to congress that at the time of the warrant applications, corroboration of the Steele dossier was in its infancy. Mentioned previously in this article, as head of the counterintelligence division, Priestap was responsible for overseeing the now infamous Crossfire Hurricane as well as the Crossfire FISA and other investigations.
Dana Boente is head of the Office of General Counsel for the FBI. Many people arent aware that he was also the attorney who summoned Marcel Lazar (Guccifer) from a foreign prison in the midst of his sentence to come and strike a deal about the hacking of the Clinton Emails. I cover that here. Boente signed one of the FISA renewals, and although many praise him as a friend of the administration, my research has led me in opposite directions, often with much criticism.
So that leads us to who the retired member of the FBI could possibly be. Comey has not retired, he was fired. That removes him from this list. Originally reported here was the suggestion it could be former Deputy director Andrew McCabe, but he was fired before he could retire. There are several other possibilities, including former FBI General Counsel James Baker, who is also currently under criminal investigation for unauthorized leaks to the media.
Conclusion
In closing, while very cryptic, using compelling information already available, I deduce that this contractor is likely FusionGPS, and the employees and former employee listed in this summary are likely Bill Priestap, Dana Boente, and possibly James Baker.
If these assumptions are correct, what this means in terms of the danger our country is facing is worse and more destructive than previously imagined. A government contractor, being paid concurrently by our government AND the campaign of an opposing political candidate, utilized the most sensitive information available about US persons and created a false narrative to either prevent, or in the case he was elected, unseat and render ineffective, the President of the United States. Michael Horowitz seems to be getting to the bottom of this.
Is the older dog OK?
