What makes no sense is that the “FBI whistle-blower” went to cantor with the info, and then Cantor took the info and passed it on to... the FBI!... Which obviously already knew about it. WTF? It is almost as if Cantor’s purpose in going to the FBI Director was to let him know he had a whistle-blower on his hands.

Unless the matter was be covered up by mid level FBI officials on orders from the White House.. And Cantor was informing Mueller as to what was going on inside his own department.
Why wasn't the Republican leadership informed by the FBI? I see this as Cantor not quite calling Obama to say we know what a mess you have on your hands, by calling the FBI director first. Might well be that nothing was going to happen until the whistle-blower let the Republicans know the inside scoop at the CIA.
That might make sense. Maybe he wanted to send the message that 'the train is coming into the station. You might want to get off the tracks and grab your luggage if you want to ride it instead of get run over by it.'
