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.

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

Keep in mind that when Leftists leave government, it’s usually for very well paying jobs, as government jobs, even for attorneys, probably don’t even pay over $200k (which may sound like a lot, but not for DC, and especially not for their lifestyles). In other words, they don’t work for the pay, they work for the POWER - such as the power to select, or reject, certain people for the presidency. That is some SERIOUS POWER.

So why leave? THEY NEED MORE MONEY. And why might that be? Hint: Defense attorneys are not cheap, particularly in DC. Something is coming down on them.

Page and Baker worked closely with Comey during his tenure as FBI director, particularly as he oversaw investigations into Hillary Clinton's handling of classified information as secretary of state and possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia during the 2016 presidential election.

Anyone who worked closely with Comey needs to go. He's bad juju and quite possibly mentally ill.

Comey told the Times in a statement on his departure that Baker “represents the best of the Department of Justice and the F.B.I.”

What a knee slapper! Getting compliments from lying corrupt Comey would be enough to make most people recoil.

Has the MSM framed this as “another high-profile female employee of Trump’s Executive Branch leaves her job under pressure from the White House” yet?

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.
