A former top FBI lawyer said there was concern at the bureau that then-FBI Director James Comey was trying to blackmail then-President-elect Donald Trump with the notorious Steele dossier. On Tuesday’s Yahoo News podcast “Skullduggery,” James Baker described the atmosphere as “quite worried” after Comey met with Trump on Jan. 6, 2017, shortly before his inauguration. Baker says the way Comey threw the dossier into Trump’s face, it was difficult not to draw “analogies” to the behavior of FBI founding Director J. Edgar Hoover, who ruled federal law enforcement for nearly 50 years.

Me too, I’d like to see him indicted because I think he is blowing smoke up everyone’s rear end trying to absolve his part in the soft coup. 8>)

I’m calling BS!

Notice how they're trying to move the narrative to "we were duped by the Ruskies"?

Sorry, chumps, nobody was fooled by the Steele "dossier," including you -- you just used it anyway.

Comey was on a “mission” to advise so that their pals in the media could report on it and then insist on a special counsel to investigate in their hope to impeach as the goal. It almost worked.

Yes. There may have been other motives, but that was the immediate practical one.

I was gambling in Prague,
I took a little risk,
Send Comey, Brennan, and Strozk,
