It is likely the firing of Comey has less to do with Hillary
and more to do with surveillance and leaks of the Trump team, possibly
including Trump himself.
There was utter fear pervading
Washington when it became obvious Trump
would win the Republican nomination and possibly the election.
He was threatening gutting agencies and
closing down others.
He was threatening
the status quo.
The media set out to
destroy him.
And there were others in
government who felt the same way.
Call
it the
Deep State or whatever, top level officials
were more than concerned.
Rules were
bent especially with the FISA court.
According to the Guardian, the
UK’s GCHQ did provide information
to NSA on the Trump team.
The denials
from NSA were that it didn’t
request the information, but no mention of
whether NSA had received any.
When Sessions took over Justice, there were likely
high level people who shared information with Sessions either out of honest concern
or to clear their names. Sessions is the
key man now. He is the one who persuaded
the President to fire Comey. He knows
where the bodies are buried
