"We initially assessed this scandal as the worst in decades of FBI history," says Zev Shalev. "Now, we believe it to be the biggest in the history of the FBI. It may even be the biggest spy scandal in the history of the United States." The alleged corruption of FBI supervising agent Charles McGonigal led us to revisit the 2016 FBI probes into both Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. We found an FBI Director determined to interfere in the elections, a lead investigator who dismissed crucial evidence instead of pursuing less credible leads, and McGonigal's fingerprints on two significant aspects of the investigation. In these two episodes titled "Contagion," we show the FBI's leadership interfered in the election process while agents within their ranks had been compromised. In Part 1, we look at Charles McGonigal and Jim Comey's roles in 2016 _____  Dear friend:  As you can tell, I am as determined today as I was when I started Narativ to bring you the truth.
