Newly Released Texts Show That FBI Agents and Analysts Were So Distressed by Likely-Illegal Handling of Trump Investigation They Bought Liability Insurance to Protect Themselves From Subsequent LawsuitsThese are the precious MuhNorms that Charlie "3-Wives" Sykes is trying to preserve, right? Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents tasked by fired former Director James Comey to take down Donald Trump during and after the 2016 election were so concerned about the agency’s potentially illegal behavior that they purchased liability insurance to protect themselves less than two weeks before Trump was inaugurated president, previously hidden FBI text messages show. The explosive new communications and internal FBI notes were disclosed in federal court filings today from Sidney Powell, the attorney who heads Michael Flynn's legal defense team. Who's Brian? I don't know who that is referring to. And who do you imagine is the conspiracy-theorist whose name is REDACTED here? Chris Steele? "Crazy" was the term the FBI agent used to describe the behavior of Christopher Steele, author of the now-debunked Trump-Russia dossier. "I've seen crazy source-related stuff in 20 years in New York and this was one of the craziest," the veteran agent testified to the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence. Steele went rogue, leaking crazy conspiracy theory bullshit to the media. When his handler confronted Steele about this, Steele admitted -- he did it because he was angry that Comey had opened (supposedly) an investigation into Hillary Clinton's emails. The handling agent was shocked: "I had no idea what he was talking about." Before Gaeta could inquire further, Steele started railing about ''your Director" and his "reopening of the investigation." This was an apparent reference to former FBI Director James Comey’s decision to reopen the probe into Hillary Clinton’s private email server after 340,000 copies of State Department emails between Clinton and her close personal aide, Huma Abedin, were discovered on a laptop used by Abedin and her husband, Anthony Weiner. ... And yet the FBI continued to claim he was a "reliable" and "dependable" witness, and refused to admit his absurd bias to the FISA court. The handling agent described his reaction to Steele’s behavior as "surprise and disbelief." Gaeta told the Senate that Steele’s actions and attitude weren't just "crazy source-related stuff," but "one of the craziest" the veteran agent had seen in two decades of handling sources. The words are significant: Steele's behavior with the FBI has been characterized as a sort of professional disagreement, uncomfortable perhaps but not unreasonable. Gaeta's blunt assessment casts things in a much harsher light and undercuts subsequent efforts by the FBI's top officials to rehabilitate Steele in order to justify using his "reporting." But Comey didn't know, huh? But Rosenstein didn't know, huh? So yeah: this checks out. It's almost certainly Steele who's being accused of conspiracy theories and bizarre crap with his bullshit sources, who can in fact be said to be "this guy knows this guy who once filled out a visa application for another guy..." "Iggy" Dancheck's drunk Russian pals at the local gin-mill, I mean. (BTW, I didn't read that article until now. But damn, it's is powerful stuff.) Back to the Federalist article. ... I think this is what Mollie Hemingway was getting at earlier-- that Trump had tweeted the "Intelligence" briefing, which was supposedly for the purposes of informing him, had been delayed to cook up a case against him.
