We have previously faulted Comey for acting unilaterally and inconsistent
with Department policy.103 Comey’s unauthorized disclosure of sensitive law
enforcement information about the Flynn investigation merits similar criticism. In
a country built on the rule of law, it is of utmost importance that all FBI employees
adhere to Department and FBI policies, particularly when confronted by what
appear to be extraordinary circumstances or compelling personal convictions.
Comey had several other lawful options available to him to advocate for the
appointment of a Special Counsel, which he told us was his goal in making the
disclosure. What was not permitted was the unauthorized disclosure of sensitive
investigative information, obtained during the course of FBI employment, in order
to achieve a personally desired outcome.
Emphasis mine. Again and again and again. Just like Strzok and Page.

So you want to pull the wings off the fly one at a time? Ok, here’s some math:
Comey+Strzok+Page+Steele+X (where X is all other ■■■■ heads involved) = change the result of the election.
They didn’t want Trump to be President. As bad as Trump is, and he is very, very bad, they don’t get to decide that. Bureaucrats tried to overturn the results of the 2016 Presidential election. Period.
B. Disclosure of FBI Information for Non-Official Use Purposes
Pursuant to FBI policy, all information acquired by FBI personnel “in
connection with official FBI duties, as well as all official material to which FBI personnel have access, is the property of the United States.”25 Accordingly, before
disclosing FBI information outside of the FBI for non-official purposes, current or
former FBI personnel must obtain, with limited exceptions such as for
whistleblowing and disclosures to Congress, advance permission from the FBI.26
This policy applies to any type of disclosure—whether oral, written, or electronic.27
FBI employees agree to be bound by this requirement when they sign the FBI
Employment Agreement.
Why would Barr let him free on these “evils” even if there are other charges coming? That makes no sense. Particularly because relying on future charges is counting chickens before any eggs are hatched.
