The FBI also "investigated" Hillary's illegal email server and 30,000 missing emails and found no crimes. I'd say that the swamp in DC contains a LOT of crooked "agents".
Don’t forget that Comey said that he could not say yes or no if leakers are being investigated as he cannot talk or confirm there is an investigation. Then he said that the DOJ (Session) and the group the FBI reports up thru gave him the OK to confirm there is a Ttrump investigation. Sounds like a shuttle Chess move.
Sacrifice a Rook to capture your opponents Queen. He said there was a investigation into Trump campaign and it goes way back likely the June 2016 time. This was I am guessing when they whole Manafort connection came out. Then we had the funky Server pinging the Russian bank (set up by NSA types to create just cause) Then the leaks and the headlines.
So Comey confirmed there was surveillance in a round about way and he now gets to be the Big Guy to kill or progress the Russian Trump story.
So he put himself in the driver’s seat and Trump cannot fire him now and Trump better play nice with Comey.
Cleaver guy actually. Remember the Trump hug back in January. Now we know what that was all about. Comey has been a friend and enemy to both sides and is worried about his own existence like anyone else would be. Now he created his own insurance policy.
