The House Judiciary Committee is examining a whistleblower report that the FBI targeted Donald Trump soon after he announced his presidential campaign in June 2015, an off-the-books operation ordered by FBI Director James B. Comey that predated the Crossfire Hurricane operation.
An FBI agent involved in the probe revealed the off-the-books criminal investigation on Tuesday in a protected disclosure sent to the committee.
The whistleblower disclosure said two female FBI undercover agents infiltrated Mr. Trump’s 2016 campaign at high levels and were directed to act as “honeypots” while traveling with Mr. Trump and his campaign staff on the trail.[…]
The agent “personally knew” that Mr. Comey ordered an FBI investigation against Mr. Trump and that Mr. Comey “personally directed it,” according to the disclosure.
The off-the-books investigation did not appear to target a specific crime but was more of what agents would describe as a fishing expedition to find something incriminating about Mr. Trump.
So, I guess they didn’t find anything incriminating. How about that.
And, they have been looking for nine years.
Is this the FBI getting ahead of a story; release it in the final days of the election campaign so it looks like all the other “October surprise” disinfo?
It is pretty clear that the U.S. federal government is as corrupt as any on the planet. Hopefully Trump does get elected and Musk tears the federal government to pieces. The same would be a good idea for the Canadian federal government.

Those lawyers. Has he been disbarred yet?
May 9 2017 fired. 3 months and 19 days too late.
In the quest to make Mexico the least corrupt nation in North America, the competition for third place is fierce.
Comey was just doing the bidding of his wife and daughters.

Comey listens to the women in his life … unlike those MAGA Republicans who tune out women and treat them shabbily …

No wonder they’re worried Trump will go after his enemies.
Enemies of The Republic.
