Secret FBI Team That Coordinated Set-Up of Trump Was Pressured by CNN

Explosive new e-mails show FBI brass discussed dossier briefing details with CNN. Senator Johnson accused the FBI of having a "Sensitive matter team" as reference by FBI Chief of Staff Jim Rybicki in an January 6, 2017 email to unspecified recipients.

Senator Johnson outlined the time line of events and communications between FBI officials, President-elect Trump and CNN. 1.

Director Comey wrote, "I said there was something that Clapper wanted me to speak to PE about alone or in a very small group." Director Comey wrote, "I then executed the sessions exactly as I had planned," and "I said media like CNN had them and were looking for a news hook."

January 8, 2017, 12:08 p.m. Then-FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe sent an email to senior FBI leadership with the subject line "Flood is coming." Mr. McCabe wrote, "CNN is close to going forward with the sensitive story. The trigger for them [CNN] is they know the material was discussed in the brief and presented in an attachment."

January 8, 2017, 12:55 p.m. Mr. McCabe emailed then-Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates and then-Principal Deputy Attorney General Matthew Axelrod with the subject line "News." Mr. McCabe wrote, "Just an FYI, and as expected, it seems CNN is close to running a story about the sensitive reporting."

Two days later on January 10, 2017, CNN ran the story about the unverified and salacious allegations made in the anti-Trump dossier with BuzzFeed publishing the dossier within a couple hours of CNN's report.

So how do you suppose James Comey knew that CNN was about to run the salacious anti-Trump dossier back in January 2017?
