→Comey's blackmail attempt
The same day of the release of the public version of the official ''Joint Analysis Report'' with the Clinton-funded smears, Comey, Clapper, Brennan, and Adm. Rogers traveled to [[New York]] to brief President-elect Trump. Comey asked for a one-on-one briefing at the end of the meeting. Without informing Trump of the true origins of the "intelligence", which Comey knew was [[Democrat]] and Clinton opposition talking points, Comey represented the "salacious" allegations to Trump as some sort of official US government intelligence report. It fundamentally was an effort by Comey to [[blackmail]] the new president, as [[J. Edgar Hoover]] had done with the seven president's Hoover served under over his 47 year career, which is why Congress limited the term of future directors and created [[judicial]] oversight of the FBI by the FISA court.

In his Congressional testimony Comey swore the dossier was "salacious and unverifed", although the FBI and DOJ used it to obtain FISA surveillance warrants on the Trump campaign in October 2016.

The Obama administration for the first time since the [[Watergate]] reforms of the 1970s successfully carried out what [[Richard Nixon]] attempted but failed to do - use the FBI and CIA to spy on, harass, and violate the civil rights of domestic political opponents. Comey did not inform Trump of the FISA surveillance on the Trump campaign and transition team - Carter Page, Paul Manafort, [[Michael Cohen]], [[Mike Flynn]] and others, only the manufactured sexual innuendo by [[Hillary Clinton]]'s hirelings. According to Comey, he acted on the instructions of Brennan and Clapper,
