I thought Obama already did that?

TRUMP: You know how they get out? They get out! That's how they get out. Declare victory, and leave.

Trump reportedly made the request during a February meeting with the then-FBI director.

President Donald Trump asked former FBI Director James Comey to end his agency’s investigation of former national security adviser Michael Flynn, The New York Times reported Tuesday.

According to the bombshell report, Trump made the request of Comey during a February meeting in the Oval Office. Comey reportedly detailed the meeting in a memo, which an FBI official later shared with the Times.

Reuters and NBC News later confirmed the Times’ report.

Donald Trump Reportedly Asked James Comey To Stop Michael Flynn Investigation

Holy shit, how much worse can it get before Trump is impeached?

Of course it's a pack of lies from a disgruntled former employee.
Of course Comey refused to come in front of Congress and instead leaks this story to the press.

Comey was not a former employee at the time he wrote the alleged memo. You really should have read the first line of the OP before splooging all over your face.

Show us the memos, or simply STFU.

I have a feeling the memos (if there are any) will be fabricated like Obama's long form Birth Certificate he released.

 

[koshergrl]

First, you subpoena the small fish who installed the recording system...

Trump's in front of the fireplace in the residence, listening to recordings right now. Deleting 18 minutes at a stretch.

I seriously doubt that.

Why didn't they release the memos?

Because they aren't authentic.

Comey will speak up if memos are not real...

Cuz he's so honest and honorable...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA

 

[mudwhistle]

The Democrats have been trying to get an independent investigation going.
They are using this to try to get Trump to appoint one.
He's not going to do it.

The difference between this and Nixon is a crime was committed by the WH. Now the Democrats are committing crimes.
The Democrats are trying this time to invent an imaginary crime and invent an imaginary coverup.

It's not going to work.

 

[koshergrl]

the NYT and Comey jerking each other off.
It's priceless.

 

[SassyIrishLass]

Allegedly being the keyword of course

Unless he predicated his decision to fire Comey because he wouldn't drop the case, this is irrelevant.

I've asked many prosecutors to drop cases against my clients. Asking isn't a crime or even a scandal.

Compared to my father, yes.

When a boss like Trump "asks" you to do something - he is "telling" you! I'm sure Comey has an extensive CYA file.

 

[guno]

Prepare the gallows

 

[mudwhistle]

The speed that it's happening is highly suspicious.
The fact that Comey had a chance to testify in front of Congress and produce this memo but chose not to is highly suspicious.

After watching the press the last year....it's impossible for me to believe any of it.
Trump isn't this stupid. The press has been trying to convince us since he started running that he is.
I know he isn't.

How is that not obstruction?

Was a bribe involved? Was any witness impeded from providing information about a crime to an investigator?

Then it's not an obstruction of a criminal investigation

18 U.S. Code § 1510 - Obstruction of criminal investigations

Then why didn't he testify?

 

[Missouri_Mike]

Republicans can't continue to just ignore this.

We can ignore your stupid rantings from your safe space all day long.

 

[Luddly Neddite]

we have comeys word vs trumps word are you stupid enough to believe trump?

Obviously you're stupid enough to believe Comey.

It's clear that Comey has animus because of his firing.
A rational person would discount anything he has to say right now.

Yeah mud Believe the fucking liar in our WH and not a guy like comey with a great rep

I don't trust either of them, frankly.

I want to see the memo, and hear the recording.

I do, too. But I don't think Comey would claim that he has something like this if he didn't. The guy has a squeaky-clean, scandal free history in the DOJ and the FBI. The best predictor of future behavior is past behavior.

YES and Trump is a vile pos whose past behavoir is horrible

How come you could see that and I could see that and most of the country could see that and yet, here they are again today, lying for trump, pretending he's not the traitor he is

OR

they are also traitors and agree with what he's doing.

Tomorrow, there will be more lies, more tweets, more lies and they'll be here lying and saying its not his fault, not their fault.

 

[SassyIrishLass]

Tomorrow's newest wail from the left will be...?

18 U.S. Code § 1510 - Obstruction of criminal investigations

That assumes that it's even true, which it is not.
One has to have a crime first before you can start a criminal investigation.

 

[guno]

looks like trump, the great white dope is going down, and it will be huge!!

 

[Avatar4321]

This is beyond obstruction.

Then you clearly haven't read the statute
