The Special Council was instated shortly after the inauguration of Donald Trump. That was due to the knowledge of the FBI regarding his circle of influence and their involvement with an enemy of the USA. This is not a witch hunt. This is not a surprise. This is the most important investigation to protect USA sovereignty in decades, if not the history of the country.
James Comey was not going to be corrupted as Trump wanted when he asked for loyalty. James Comey already had a history of what was then compromising the Executive Branch. There is just no question that the firing of James Comey was to dilute the authority of the FBI.
