Among the most despicable characters of the Obama administration — and there were many, to be sure — were former FBI Director James Comey and former CIA Director John Brennan.
The visceral hatred of President Donald Trump shared by these two should-be criminals was (and remains) palpable, as they did their damnedest to take down the then-presidential candidate during the 2016 presidential campaign.
Trump won, of course, and now that he’s back in the White House, he might get the last laugh — or should we call it final say? — in what justifiably happens to Comey and Brennan as a result of their TDS-riddled deeds.
As RedState reported on Tuesday, Justice Department sources told Fox News Digital that both Comey and Brennan are under criminal investigation for allegedly making false statements to Congress about the infamous Trump–Russia probe, as well as possibly committing other wrongdoings, prompting CIA Director John Ratcliffe to refer evidence to FBI Director Kash Patel for potential prosecution of the far-from-dynamic duo.

Now for the fun part.
Fox News Chief Political Correspondent Brit Hume is one of the few remaining respected journalists in the business, and he demonstrated that expertise on Thursday during a subtle beatdown of Hillary Clinton in conjunction with the FBI’s investigation of Comey and Brennan.
During an appearance on Fox News “Special Report,” Hume, a consummate wordsmith who often says more in fewer words than many commentators use to say less, was asked to comment on the investigation.
Succinctly as ever, Hume responded:
It all comes down once again after all these years to the Steele Dossier which was a dogs breakfast of scurrilous allegations against Trump, put together as we all know by a former British intelligence agent at the behest and in the pay of the Hillary Clinton campaign.
OK, stop the tape.
A “dog’s breakfast of scurrilous allegations.” How can you not love that? Not to mention, it couldn’t be more apropos to describe the slim efforts of Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign to outrageously try to blame Donald Trump for something her own campaign was attempting to do.
Hume continued:
It shouldn’t have been anywhere near any kind of intelligence community assessment, and indeed the CIA analyst who looked at it thought it not credible and should be part of any CIA product.
Unfortunately, however, at the behest, we now believe, of one of the men under investigation in this case, it was indeed put into the intelligence community assessment of Russia’s interference in the [2016] election, and it was done so apparently — in part, at least — at the behest of FBI agents who were much more interested in this document than the CIA was.
Translation: Comey was determined to “get Trump” at virtually any cost.
As a refresher…
Hillary and the Democrats histrionically claimed throughout the 2016 campaign that the Trump campaign “colluded” with Russia against the Clinton campaign when, in the end, it was revealed that it was Hillary herself who did the colluding — I know: try to control your shock and amazement — which is in part what makes Hume’s newest comments so beautiful.
Incidentally, as I reported in March, President Trump ordered the suspension of any active security clearances held by lawyers at the law firm that assisted Hillary’s 2016 presidential campaign in funding the debunked and anti-Trump Steele dossier.
As for Hillary Clinton, may she never forget that she never got to best of Donald Trump.
