New Report: Was FBI Chief Legal Counsel James Baker Captured By New DOJ Leak Task Force?…
Conservative Treehouse ^ | 12-23-17 | Sundance

Posted on 12/22/2017 10:10:23 PM PST by bigbob

Things are getting increasingly interesting and simultaneously obvious. Thursday night the Washington Post reported that FBI Director Christopher Wray had relieved FBI Chief Legal Counsel, James Baker, of his responsibilities within the department.

Attorney James Baker accompanied FBI Asst. Director “Andy” McCabe to the Tuesday congressional hearing with the House Intelligence Community. Curiously, in addition to other lines of inquiry, during the questioning McCabe was asked about whether James Baker was authorized to speak to the media about the Steele Dossier and the underlying ‘counterintelligence’ operation. Asst. Director McCabe responded that Baker would not be authorized to take such action.

Following the HPSCI hearing, republican committee leadership announced their plan to subpoena James Baker for further questioning. [Keep in mind Baker was there.] Two days later, at the Thursday Judiciary and Oversight Committee hearings, James Baker did not accompany Andrew McCabe. Hours later, James Baker is removed from his responsibilities as legal counsel within the FBI. Cause: ‘unknown‘.

Back in July, 2017, it was reported that James Baker was under a criminal investigation for leaking classified information from within the FBI, although the details of the leak content were unknown. Politico today reports that James Baker has been identified as the likely source that released information about the Fusion-GPS/Christopher Steele “Russian Conspiracy Dossier” to David Corn of Mother Jones in October of 2016:

Who the hell is “Q”? I keep seeing refs to “Q” but I can’t for the life of me figure out the ref.

Q is a high level US Government person/group who has been “leaking” hints to things about the take down of the Deep State on 4chan and 8chan. (Which is going on as we type.)

Since it appears that Q is President Trump and his inner staff, it is not really “leaking”, since the President can release anything he wants.

The Sessions zotters must also believe Trump is an idiot. Otherwise, why would Trump keep such a supposed inept person in such an important position as AG if Trump wasn’t an idiot and inept himself. Trump’s made some mistakes along the way, but Sessions is not one of them.

I dont know about the CTH’s take on this.

The “small group” within the FBI and Mueller’s investigation seems to be getting smaller and smaller.

We have agents being reassigned, agents retiring - these are all assets on Mueller’s team!

All these malefactors are within Mueller’s purview. He doesn’t seem to be protecting them!

I don’t know, but it seems that Meuller’s team is dropping like flies!

The outlandish theory that Mueller is actually working with Trump to drain the swamp may need another look!

If that’s true, it was all part of the Deep State plan and he’ll be punished ala Lois Lerner..

...and Rosenfeinstein, McCabe, Ohr, Stroke etc are giving their all to help him out.

They didn't intend to but they are part of the reason why Sessions will have to ensure all his ducks are lined up - so many interconnected that it needs to be gone over like an archaeology dig - small brushes and magnifying glasses...

Trump’s campaign knew about all these guys before the election.

BTW, Trump’s tweets are likely “direction” to DOJ that insulate him from any charges of “controlling” the investigation. Sort of like invisible ink.
