James Baker, the former top lawyer at the FBI, has been under federal investigation for leaking to the media, a letter from House Republicans revealed Tuesday.

Gateway Pundit contributor Ted Malloch wrote about James Baker on Monday:

In 2017, Circa reported that Baker was under a Department of Justice criminal investigation for allegedly leaking classified national security information concerning the Trump administration to the media. And now this duplicitous leak to the NY Times. TRENDING: WATCH: DC Woman Attempts to Shame CVS Manager for Calling Police on Black Shoplifters — Stunt Backfires Spectacularly Trump as a secret Russian agent. This is “disgusting” as the President himself noted and extremely insulting. Baker has dirty hands and indeed appears to be a key figure in the RED NOVEMBER narrative and plot to destroy the President.

Catherine Herridge broke the story on FOX News:

The former top lawyer at the FBI has been under federal investigation for leaking to the media, a letter from House Republicans revealed Tuesday. The letter from GOP Reps. Jim Jordan and Mark Meadows cited the transcript of a congressional interview with former General Counsel James Baker and his lawyer last fall, where the probe conducted by seasoned U.S. Attorney John Durham was confirmed. “You may or may not know, [Baker has] been the subject of a leak investigation … a criminal leak investigation that’s still active at the Justice Department,” lawyer Daniel Levin told lawmakers, as he pushed back on questions about his client’s conversations with reporters.
