Mueller early draft on firing of Comey.............

[iamwhatiseem]

The problem is, comey is the one who personally briefed Trump on the classified version of the Dossier and Russian investigation in early January, before he was even sworn in.... so that meeting alone could have also been a catalyst involved with his unexplained desire in ending the FBI investigation....and Trump had been briefed even during the primary on the FBI Russian investigation....

If, could....that is what you got?
Serious question....if you became President would YOU have wanted Comey to stay on?
The guys judgement is questionable at best.
I would certainly have let him go.

 

[Rambunctious]

what comey did was a necessary legal mechanism used to do his job and defend his country...



Fordham law school professor: “This should not be called a leak”


Shugerman pointed out that Comey described in his testimony on Thursday how he had taken care not to put classified material in the memo in question. The memo recounted how Trump had directed Comey, as Comey understood it, to end an investigation of the former national security adviser Michael Flynn.

The president called Comey 'a leaker', but is there any legal case against him?

More than half of the memos former FBI Director James Comey wrote as personal recollections of his conversations with President Trump about the Russia investigation have been determined to contain classified information, according to interviews with officials familiar with the documents.

Comey’s private memos on Trump conversations contained classified material

Fucking Liars all of you. Comey is a liar, you are a liar, The Columbia Professor is a Liar, and what Comey did was not only Lie, he committed Treason.

Private Communications with The President are by default confidential and covered under executive privilege.

Not only that, but Comey the Obama cum guzzling snake he is, said he typed these memos on FBI time, in an FBI car, on an FBI secured laptop.

It's a Government Document.

He not only violated espionage laws, he violated the confidentiality agreements ALL FBI agents have to sign when they first join THE FBI.

This fucker needs to do the honorable thing and whack himself, not whack off to his image on the cover of his own shitty book.

 

[iamwhatiseem]

Richard Painter, a White House ethics counsel under George W Bush, tweeted that the move could constitute obstruction of justice by the president and “witness intimidation”, since Comey is a witness in any potential case involving the president.


“Trying to get DoJ to go after Comey – a material witness – over ‘leak’ is yet more obstruction of justice,” Painter tweeted.

Again the word COULD.
COULD does not mean is. Only that a possibility exist.
You COULD get struck by lightning today

......... nada. Nothing burger based on early word from CNN.
Several key points...
1) Witnesses stated Trump wanted to fire Comey on day one, only hesitated for political reasons. That is big. It was not as if he suddenly wanted to fire Comey based on the investigation, but stated to advisors he wanted to get rid of him basically as soon as he took office.
2) No sign that he went beyond his constitutional rights in the firing.
3) He was openly criticizing Comey to his inner circle during the campaign, even though he benefited from Comey's actions right before election day, he questioned the timing.

So...move along nothing to see here, based on early reports on the draft letter.

why are you wingers so determined to see nothing there?

if it were Hillary Clinton, you hypocrites would be demanding she be drawn and quartered.

I guess as a study in dishonesty trumptoons are interesting, though

you and your fellow trumptards are the insane liars.

The problem is, comey is the one who personally briefed Trump on the classified version of the Dossier and Russian investigation in early January, before he was even sworn in.... so that meeting alone could have also been a catalyst involved with his unexplained desire in ending the FBI investigation....and Trump had been briefed even during the primary on the FBI Russian investigation....

You mean the Dossier Comey paid a British Agent working with Russian and Ukranian Intelligence to create a FAKE DOSSIER not to help President Trump win an Election, but to stop him and Help Clinton?

The same Dossier he paid for and was forced to tell President Trump about after he had paid for it, and then leaked it to The Press? Same as he was forced to have a sham investigation on Clinton when some of his agents discovered she was up to no good and it got out?

This same Dossier Comey Colluded with Foreign Agents to obtain with taxpayer money, which in itself is THE FBI paying for OPPOSITION RESEARCH AGAINST TRUMP, was leaked BY THE FBI to THE MEDIA?

THAT
DOSSIER?

Comey should hang for that, not be defended for covering his ASS!

You don't have collusion with Russia and a DNC funded Russian Sourced Fake Dossier, Foreign Agents, The Clinton Campaign, Obama Admin, and THE FBI that was created for the sole purpose of taking down Donald Trump and throwing the election FOR HILLARY CLINTON.

Russia colluded with Clinton, The DNC, Obama, Foreign Agents in THE UKRAINE, GREAT BRITAN, and RUSSIA, as well as THE MEDIA and FBI to attack President Trump, because they'd rather deal with the Wheeling And Dealing Monty Hall of Politics, Hillary Clinton instead of more Hard Line Donald Trump who is going to be a tough negotiator!

Why do you LIE so much? Comey, nor the FBI paid Steele any money...in October of 2016 they were going to pay him to help them, but the Dossier leak stopped that from happening.

The Dossier investigation came long long before the FBI finally got it.

Ultimately, the FBI did not pay Steele. Communications between the bureau and the former spy were interrupted as Steele’s now-famous dossier became the subject of news stories, congressional inquiries and presidential denials, according to the people familiar with the arrangement, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the matter.

FBI once planned to pay former British spy who authored controversial Trump dossier

I'm tired of our CONGRESS being pussies. These fuckers committed a lot of crimes, and THIS CONGRESS IS AFRAID OF THE PRESS and won't go after them.

So CNN is right wing??
I am just repeating what CNN said.

The guys judgement is questionable at best.
I would certainly have let him go.

I would not have had a choice but to fire him....1...they have a 10 year term and are suppose to be A-political....

and 2, I would KNOW that firing the person who is heading up a criminal investigation in to my Campaign team...is a no no.

Which is WHY COMEY WAS FIRED, because HE WAS POLITICAL. Why in the fuck do you think Obama Bin Lying put him there, same as he did Koskinen and Lerner at THE IRS, same with LYNCH at THE DOJ, RICE, Brennen, Clapper.
Obama was RICHARD NIXON ON STEROIDS!

Huh?...the President can fire any appointed position besides SCOTUS.
So he should have been forced to accept that his head of FBI was of at minimum having questionable judgement?
You gotta remember Care....the Democrats were out for this guys blood. They were screaming collusion, they were screaming election rigging...they went on and on about this man...but TRUMP fires him....wait a minute...maybe he is a good guy all of a sudden?? Trump should have kept him on???
Do you not see the total flip flop of this?

 

[Crixus]

“I just fired the head of the F.B.I. He was crazy, a real nut job,” Mr. Trump said. “I faced great pressure because of Russia. That’s taken off.”

As said by an anonymous source to NYT.

White House doesn't dispute Trump called Comey a 'nut job' to Russians

He is kind of a wishy washy homo.

You gotta remember this is CNN saying this stuff today. It goes without saying they are not exactly looking out for Trump

either you don't get it, or you're lying... take your pick.

THEN mr trump obstructed justice which changed everything!

The Democrats hated him with a passion and not once or twice or even three times...but multiple times wanted him fired....until it was Trump, not Obama, that did it. And then suddenly they want investigations into why Trump fired him.
You can't make this shit up. Giorgio Tsoukalos couldn't come up with this.

 

[Valerie]

it's not that complicated to parse the rhyme and reason of it all...

unless you're a dishonest dumbo hack. enjoy!
