Way back in January, Louise Mensch and Claude Taylor were both saying

that James Comey was one of the good guys, that he had been boxed into a corner in October when Guliani was going to leak the story about Weiner's laptop, and that he was actively pursuing the Russian investigation.
And now we hear that Comey's letter from the FBI to Chaffetz was classified, and that Chaffetz removed the classified markings before he released it to Congress. So Comey had NOT intended it to be publicly released.
And we're hearing that Comey got fired because he was viewed as disloyal to DT, and he was asking to expand the Russian investigation.
So Louise was right about Comey being a "white knight," despite his flaws. And she was also the first to report on the first FISA warrant, followed by the BBC and the Guardian, and then McClatchy.
Claude Taylor's sources have allowed him to report on the existence of warrants and Grand juries weeks before anyone in the MSM covered the stories. He also has been asserting that Comey was seriously working on the Russia/Trump case.
So Comey has turned out to be a good guy, despite his mistakes; and Louise and Claude have been doing as well as much of the MSM in keeping us informed.
Something to keep in mind as we go forward.
ON EDIT: When you read Louise's blogs, you'll notice that she carefully distinguishes between specifics that she's certain about and other matters that are just her speculation (educated guesses). Also, Claude will distinguish between rumors and chatter vs. facts trusted sources have informed him about. So it's important to keep those distinctions clear.
