Former federal prosecutors say Scaramucci inadvertently accused FBI agents of breaking the law.

In his immediately infamous phone call to a New Yorker staff writer, Anthony Scaramucci didn’t just say the White House chief of staff was a “f–king paranoid schizophrenic” or accuse the president’s chief strategist, Steve Bannon, of engaging in autofellatio. He also made a remarkable revelation about his own conduct.

FBI agents, Scaramucci said, may have committed a crime on his behalf.

Discussing his anger about White House officials’ propensity to leak to reporters, Scaramucci told the New Yorker’s Ryan Lizza that federal law enforcement officials have actually been leaking to him—about which White House staffers are leaking. Really.
“This is going to get cleaned up very shortly, O.K.?” Scaramucci said. “Because I nailed these guys. I’ve got digital fingerprints on everything they’ve done through the F.B.I. and the fucking Department of Justice.”

A Justice Department spokesperson declined to comment on Scaramucci’s assertion. But former FBI agents and federal prosecutors who spoke with The Daily Beast said that if Scaramucci was being truthful, he disclosed that FBI agents had violated the agency’s protocols and maybe broken the law.

1. another bubble of gas surfaces in the swamp

Is this one of the 'best people'?
Don't know that many Yanks these days, but I would change train carriages to avoid this individual; you know - America is not presenting itself to the world very well in showing us poor foreigners the freakshow that is the very worst that country could produce.

Each member of this menagerie is different in a new way, all of them appalling.
Somehow I can't see this Mooch lasting long seeing that he is infuriating every person or organisation he comes across in record time.

Of course unless it is deliberate. DT may be the Id of the American Dream, but Scaramucci is becoming the Id to,the Id.
