Excerpt:<\/strong><\/p>\n

NEW YORK \u2014 James Comey took to Twitter on Saturday to respond to an earlier tweet by President Donald Trump about the Russia probe, with the former FBI director exclaiming that the \u201cAmerican people will hear my story very soon.\u201d<\/em><\/h2>\n

\u201cAnd they can judge for themselves who is honorable and who is not,\u201d Comey added.<\/em><\/p>\n

Comey was responding to Trump\u2019s charge that the ex-FBI chief was aware of illicit activity at the FBI regarding the probe into unsubstantiated claims of Russian collusion.<\/em><\/p>\n

Below, in no particular order, are nine major problems with Comey\u2019s actions in the Russia probe.\u00a0 This while he tweets about determining who is \u201chonorable.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

1 \u2013 Comey signed FISA applications that cited the largely discredited anti-Trump dossier as purported evidence to conduct surveillance on Carter Page, who briefly served as a volunteer campaign foreign policy adviser.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

The previously released four-page House Intelligence Committee memo<\/a> alleging abuse of surveillance authority documents that on October 21, 2016, the FBI and Justice Department sought and received the FISA order against Page, and that the agencies sought the renewal of the order every 90 days in accordance with court requirements. Renewals require separate finding of probable cause each time, the memo relates.<\/em><\/p>\n

According to the memo, Comey \u201csigned three FISA applications in question on behalf of the FBI, and Deputy Director Andrew McCabe signed one.\u201d The memo relates that the FBI utilized the anti-Trump dossier compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele as evidence against Page in order to obtain the FISA warrant.<\/em><\/p>\n

The controversial Fusion GPS hired Steele\u2019s company, Orbis Business Intelligence, to do the anti-Trump work that resulted in the compilation of the infamous dossier.\u00a0 Fusion GPS was paid for its anti-Trump work by Hillary Clinton\u2019s 2016 campaign and the Democratic National Committee via the Perkins Coie law firm.<\/em><\/p>\n

Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee last month released a purported rebuttal to the House GOP memo, but the Democrats\u2019 document actually confirmed<\/a> that Comey\u2019s FISA applications did indeed cite the Steele dossier.<\/em><\/p>\n
