Lisa Page, another FBI official who served as an adviser to Comey and his deputy at the bureau, Andrew McCabe, on various legal issues, is also resigning, the Times reported.

Comey has a personality disorder. He’s a narcissist with a Messiah Complex. That’s why he believes the rules don’t apply to him. He’s on a special mission. Personality disorders are of long standing and pretty much set in cement by age 18. Unlike other forms of mental illness, they’re virtually untreatable. No one will ever convince someone like Comey that he needs psychological help. If you think he has a problem, he sees that as a reflection of your ignorance. The thing with Coney is that he really believes his own crap. In his mind, he is the lone hero of the FBI, persecuted by the nefarious Trump who took away his major source of Narcissitic Supply. To a narcissist, that supply is like crack to an addict.

I 'slightly' disagree... Comey's, the 'Messiah Complex' is Comey is the 'law'...

I am reminded by the 'law' business of what Christ foretold would be... here is a bit of the warning Matthew 23

1Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples, 2Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat: 3All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not. 4For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers. 5But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments, 6And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues, 7And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi. 8But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren. 9And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. 10Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ. 11But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant. 12And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.

Sounds like the IG report is going to be a few more weeks past the expected date next week. CTH / Sundance thinks the IG is working with outside prosecutor Hubor and will be charging lots of folks, possibly even Comey. The S is going to hit the fan, I hope.

4 May: Washington Examiner: James Comey praises ‘great public servant’ James Baker after he retires from FBI
by Diana Stancy Correll
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/james-comey-praises-great-public-servant-james-baker-after-he-retires-from-fbi

plenty of scathing comments:

4 May: Tweet: James Comey: A great public servant retired from the FBI today. Jim Baker’s integrity and commitment to the rule of law have benefitted our country through 5 presidents, of both parties. We are fortunate he and so many others choose to devote their lives to justice.

It’s called “criminally insane”.

Comey is ill. You can see it in his behavior. Does not speak well of our government that someone like him was in charge of the FBI.

I’ve heard that when people like this flip, they are retained on the payroll until no further questions or information is needed from them, and thus I suspect we are at that point in this investigation.

I guess they are through destroying the evidence!

She resigned for medical reasons -- carpal tunnel.

"I don’t believe either of these were ever FBI agents but rather direct hires by Hq."

That's part of the problem. Neither was Comey - he was VP at Lockheed Martin. Seems upper management at FBI probably should have some field experience, other than being a professional manager.

And we know how that worked out with Robert McNamara.

So, one can envision the rats like Rosenstein climbing aboard Huey's atop the FBI building as federal marshalls are breaking in the front door....
