REP. CARSON: Now, some in the Ukraine probably disliked her efforts to help Ukraine root out corruption, is that correct?
KENT: As I mentioned in my testimony, you can't promote principled anti-corruption action without pissing-off corrupt people.
he Pentagon’s DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) wants to be able to spread genetically modified bacteria as “explosives sensors.” The United States government could very well be looking into ways to militarize microbes.
The Pentagon has teamed up with Raytheon for this project, which seems like it should come straight out of a dystopian science fiction story. The government wants to develop a system capable of delivering genetically modified bacteria underground, according to a report by RT.
Initiated by DARPA, the same agency that led programs to create telekinetic super soldiers and weaponized robotic insects, the project seeks to “program two bacterial strains to monitor ground surfaces for explosive materials,” defense contractor Raytheon said in a joint press release with the Worcester Polytechnic Institute.
“We already know that some bacteria can be programmed to be very good at detecting explosives, but it’s harder underground,” said Raytheon researcher Allison Taggart. “We’re investigating how to transport the reporting bacteria to the required depth underground.”

Comey tends to be a bit anal about grammar. The Y in brackets shows that he is quoting something that did not begin with the word 'You' but appeared somewhere within a longer sentence. Therefore, when one recites a quote, picking it up somewhere other than the beginning of the the quote, putting the first word in brackets is proper punctuation.
With Comey, it is hard to tell whether he is simply being grammatically anal, trolling Q, or sending a code.
ETA: Here is the full quote, just fyi. As you can see, the Comey's quoted part is after Kent's beginning words of "as I mentioned in my testimony".

Hillary Clinton thinks corporate America has become enamored with what she calls "quarterly capitalism."
This idea broadly argues that American corporate executives have become more focused on seeking short-term gains in exchange for longer-term investments that will more broadly help the economy, but might not show the kind of immediate return to shareholders some investors now demand.
"I am deeply distressed about quarterly capitalism because I think it is causing businesses to make decisions that are not helping the long-term profitability of American corporations or the success of our economy," Clinton said. "And I'm on record for that going back to the time when I was a senator. So I hear that, but the facts don't bear it out."
