What still baffles me is why did Trump met with Comey at least 9 times within 4 months about the Russian issue affecting people close to Trump, under normal circumstances is this allowed? Also why is Trump demanding 'loyalty' from Comey who is supposed to be an 'independent government officer'? 5 Likes |

The obstruction of justice case against Trump just went up in smoke Senator James Risch (R-ID) questioned Comey early in the hearing about the possibility of obstruction of justice regarding the investigation of General Michael Flynn. Risch repeatedly questioned Comey about the exact wording used by President Trump to him in private, which Comey recorded in his much-discussed memo. The exchange leaves Democrat’s hopes of impeachment for obstruction of justice considerably dimmed: Comey: I mean, it’s the President of the United States with me alone, saying, “I hope this.” I took it as this is what he wants me to do. I didn’t obey that, but that’s the way I took it. Risch: You may have taken it as a direction, but that’s not what he said. Comey: Correct. Risch: He said, “I hope.” Comey: Those are exact words, correct. Risch: You don’t know of anyone that’s been charged for hoping something? Comey: I don’t, as I sit here. Risch: Thank you, Mr. Chairman https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBTUNiDtrhk 1 Like |

Loretta Lynch meddled in the Clinton investigation Comey discussed the involvement of President Obama’s Attorney General, Loretta Lynch, in the investigation of Hillary Clinton. He stated that Lynch made an odd request for how the FBI investigation should be described. “At one point the attorney general had directed me not to call it investigation, but instead to call it a matter, which concerned and confused me,” Comey said. Comey added that Lynch’s infamous tarmac meeting with Bill Clinton during the campaign was the reason he decided to make a statement when the decision was made not to prosecute Hillary Clinton. “In a ultimately conclusive way, that was the thing that capped it for me, that I had to do something separately to protect the credibility of the investigation, which meant both the FBI and the Justice Department,” Comey said https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9liUwa1Yf6g 1 Like |

James Comey leaked documents to the media Comey admitted to orchestrating leaks from the investigation to the media using a network of friends Under oath, Comey told Sen. Susan Collins: “The president tweeted on Friday after I got fired that I better hope there’s not tapes. I woke up in the middle of the night on Monday night cause it didn’t dawn on me originally that there might be corroboration for our conversation, and my judgement was I needed to get that out into the public square and so I asked a friend of mine to share the content of the memo with a reporter, didn’t do it myself for a variety of reasons, but I asked him to because I thought that might prompt the appointment of a special counsel.“ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0Wt33_UWPE |

Comey said the New York Times published fake news James Comey had a few things to say about the reporting of the New York Times which reported on collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia. Senator Risch questioned Comey about the Times, asking “So the American people can understand this, that report by the New York Times was not true, is that a fair statement?” “It was not true,” Comey said. “Again, all of you know this, maybe the American people don’t. The challenge — I’m not picking on reporters about writing stories about classified information… [the challenge is] that people talking about it often don’t really now what’s going on and those of us who actually know what’s going on are not talking about it.” |

James Comey sounds like every disgruntled former employee ever Comey had quite a bit to say about his firing, which leaves him looking like a disgruntled former employee. Comey accused President Trump and his administration of lying about him, and “defaming him and more importantly the FBI.” Comey also explained that his discomfort with the President and the belief that Trump would lie about him led to the creation of his memo on the meeting. “I was honestly concerned that he might lie about the nature of our meeting, so I thought it really important to document,” Comey said. “I knew there might come a day when I might need a record of what happened not only to defend myself but to protect the FBI.” |

armyofone: Becoming? It has become a circus the moment the clown boy Trump decided to run for president. And yes, democracies are expensive but they are worth it. And if Trump's campaign enabled the Russians to meddle with the very core of the American democracy, which are the elections, the American people and the rest of the world need to know it. I am 99% sure that Trump and his campaign team are guilty. |

armyofone:Yes because u asked for it since u refuse to get over d fact that ur candidate lost fairly and not because of the Russians. You asked for a RECOUNT, it was done. You then alleged that Russia interfered and hence an investigation should be carried out, it's ongoing. And in the midst of it u finally asked for a SPECIAL PROSECUTOR/COUNSEL, It was granted. So what NEXT? Are u not the ones creating d drama Abi na Reality? 2 Likes 1 Share |

Is Mark Kasowitz threat to file a formal complaint with the DOJ's Inspector-General a form of witness intimidation? I would think so because Comey is no longer a government employee, and the very act of the president's private lawyer engaging in such an act can be construed as the president directly intimidating a witness during an active investigation. 1 Like |

According to the latest Gallup poll, 83% of Americans (45% Dem, 38% Rep) identify with either major party. It looks like a third party/independent challenge to the big 2 will continue to be a mirage. The Green party, and Libertarian party should be major players in national politics, not just local politics. The U.S should be like Western European countries that are truly multi-party states. |

Now we see how this man is handling government affairs as if it's his personal company and toying with lives and emotions of Americans home and abroad. I pray he wouldn't be impeached. Former US Under-secretary for Defense (policy), Michele Flournoy, ruled herself out of contention for the vacant post of Defense Secretary. |

armyofone: 4-8 years are a very long time in politics. Bush succeeded to take the country into a severe recession and create chaos in the Middle East based on lies of WMD. It is the best thing that can happen to America and the world if this incompetent fo.ol gets nothing done. Paul Ryan confirmed it: He said that Trump did not mean to break protocol by speaking to directly to Comey - 'He’s new to government'. In other words: He is clueless. 1 Like |
