Comey testified earlier under oath that nobody had tried to pressure him to stop the investigation. Now the New York Times claims they have a memo that Comey wrote on February 12 2017, before he testified to Congress, that Trump did try to talk him into stopping the case.
So either he's lying in this secret memo....the media is lying about it, or he perjured himself in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee on May 3rd. Both can't be true. This was the hearing about Huma Abadin. After Comey mis-charactorized the number of emails Huma sent to her husband's laptop and the FBI had to issue a retraction, Comey was fired within hours.
The Senator that asked the question that contradicts the reason Democrats are calling for impeachment is Sen. Mazie Hirono of Hawaii. The media is getting reckless with their reporting and refuses to even do a cursory vetting of the facts before they publish them. She asked Comey if he knows of any time that someone has tried to stop an investigation. He said no. This fact will become better known in the future. Fox News just showed the clip of the question which Comey clearly stated never happening in his experience. This is in direct conflict with this magic memo that nobody has seen.
Senator Mazie Hirono HI
