Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents tasked by fired former Director James Comey to take down Donald Trump during and after the 2016 election were so concerned about the agency�s potentially illegal behavior that they purchased liability insurance to protect themselves less than two weeks before Trump was inaugurated president, previously hidden FBI text messages show. The explosive new communications and internal FBI notes were disclosed in federal court filings today from Sidney Powell, the attorney who heads Michael Flynn's legal defense team.
"[W]e all went and purchased professional liability insurance," one agent texted on Jan. 10, 2017, the same day CNN leaked details that then-President-elect Trump had been briefed by Comey about the bogus Christopher Steele dossier. That briefing of Trump was used as a pretext to legitimize the debunked dossier, which was funded by the Democratic National Committee and the Clinton campaign and compiled by a foreign intelligence officer who was working for a sanctioned Russian oligarch.
"Holy crap," an agent responded. "All the analysts too?""Yep," the first agent said. "All the folks at the Agency as well."

The FBI agents also discussed how the investigation's leadership was consumed with conspiracy theories rather than evidence.
"I'm tellying [sic] man, if this thing ever gets FOIA'd, there are going to be some tough questions asked," one agent wrote. "[A]nd a great deal of those will be related to Brian having a scope way outside the boundaries of logic[.]""[REDACTED] is one of the worst offenders of the rabbit holes and conspiracy theories," an agent texted. "This guy traveled with that guy, who put down 3rd guy as his visa sponsor. 3rd guy lives near a navy base, therefore."

Who is "Brian" from the "[A]nd a great deal of those will be related to Brian having a scope way outside the boundaries of logic[.]"???
I don't know.
If you read the article from The Federalist, it seems to indicate that there are redacted sections in between these quotes, so I am not sure anyone knows.
I am reading a book currently which talks about how the CIA renamed it's members for internal communications. For instance Sid Gottlieb was Seymour Geiser or something like that.
Maybe Brian is Brennan?
