Since when does the FBI Director leak private conversations with the President?

[Faun]

I think Comey told the truth because he's basically honest and he was under oath. He said he WISHED there were tapes. I don't think there are, though.

You know what, Old Lady? I think Comey basically told the truth as well! What neither of us knows is whether his testimony would have been different if the threat of tapes wasn't hanging over his head. I wish there were tapes of his conversation with Loretta Lynch about what to call the investigation into Hillary Clinton's emails! I wish there were tapes of the conversation between Lynch and Bill Clinton on that plane in Arizona! Does anyone REALLY think they had a secret meeting to discuss their grandkids like they claimed? Who's THAT naive?

I hope the investigators are able to stay on track better than most of us.
This is about Trump, not Clinton and not Lynch, although I hope EVERYONE made a mental note on that one. Wow.
Whether Comey was honest because of tapes? I would say that's conjecture implying he's basically dishonest and I have no actual evidence to support that. I obviously don't know him personally but people who have worked with him and known him for years including the legislators on the investigatory committees, say he has a sterling reputation for honesty. I'll take that.

Gee, Old Lady...I thought this string was about James Comey's testimony! Part of that testimony was about Loretta Lynch telling him she wanted him to refer to the Clinton email investigation...not as an FBI investigation but as an FBI "matter"! (Trust the Clinton's to use semantics once again to try and polish a turd!). See, here's the thing. When you on the left start turning over rocks looking for the "goods" on Trump, you run the very real risk of turning over rocks that are hiding yet more Clinton scandals. Comey's testimony about Lynch is a perfect example of what I'm talking about! To be quite frank with you I can't recall in my lifetime when multiple Attorney Generals for one President were so blatantly partisan as they were during Obama's two terms!

Well, no, this thread is actually about Comey's private conversations with Trump and his giving them to a friend. But of course, no one can prevent you from trying to derail the thread if you really have your heart set on doing so.

........ to leak to the press

Kinda forgot that huh?

No, I didn't forget that. This thread is still not about Hillary.

 

[Oldstyle]

Hillary didn't eat anyone's puppy, Joey. She did however run the State Department through two private servers she set up in her home in Westchester and on those servers she had a whole bunch of classified information.

so what. So did Colin Powell, so did Condi Rice.

I don't know what THAT has to do with your experiences in the Army...so I assume that was just a rather pathetic attempt to change topics?

Did I need to use smaller words?

the point I made was that what was "Classified" really depended on who was looking at it. You haven't seen this material, and neither have I, but the fact that most of it was classified after the fact tells me it wasn't as clear cut as you seem to want to think it is.

But again, Hillary ate your puppy or something, because you can't stop talking about her.

Just remember- Colluding with a foreign Dictator, that's okay.

Using the wrong E-mail! OH MY GOD, KILL HER!!!

Colin Powell and Condi Rice ran the State Department through private servers they set up in their private residences...servers that they hid from Congress when asked about them? Really Joey?

The Director of the FBI saw some of the material that was on Clinton's servers...he said that she had classified materials there. That doesn't even count the thousands of emails that Hillary had scrubbed from her servers to hide what she was doing from Congressional scrutiny! No puppies, Joey...just incredibly sleazy actions...and then a whole bunch of lies to cover up what she had been doing!

President Snowflake is such a drama queen

He thinks he can trash and threaten James Comey and then when Comey defends himself....Trump claims executive privilege

Not fair....<sob>....Comey is a leaker

When did Trump claim Executive Privilege? He was more than happy to let Comey testify because he knew Comey wasn't going to hurt him.

Ironic, Isn't it? Trump actually could have used executive privilege to stop Comey from testifying, but didn't.

Now the snowflakes are accusing him of using it?

These folks are losing it.

What's amazing, Pop is how Trump haters said Trump was proving his guilt because he was going to invoke Executive Privilege...when he actually had no plans to do so...but then won't admit that Trump is proving his innocence by NOT invoking EP. There is this disconnect going on with the liberal left that is amazing to witness!

Do you ever stop lying, ya con tool?

Ever??

Of course he had plans to do so. Spicer even said it was something being considered.

Spicer even said, "Obviously, it's got to be reviewed."

You don't review something unless you're considering it.

They obviously "reviewed it" and decided that there was no reason to invoke that since they had nothing to hide. Yet you on the left kept the narrative going that Trump was going to invoke Executive Privilege for weeks based on absolutely NOTHING!

 

[Oldstyle]

He didn't "strongly" say anything, Jake! He prefaced most of the things he said with "I might be wrong but..."! He said he felt the President was asking him to drop the investigation into Flynn but he also admitted that Trump told him to go ahead with the Russian investigation even if it involved his "satellites". Would Comey have said that if the threat of tapes wasn't hanging over him? We'll never know.

I think Comey told the truth because he's basically honest and he was under oath. He said he WISHED there were tapes. I don't think there are, though.

I simply pointed out that you on the left thought Comey's testimony was going to hurt Trump but in reality it revealed one more example of what a bunch of sleazy characters the Clinton's and the people that work for them are, Faun! You wanted a Special Prosecutor? Fine, lets put Bill Clinton and Loretta Lynch under oath and have them tell us all about their conversation that day in Arizona...you know...the one where they talked about their grand kids?

good idea it is working it way to that

 

[JoeB131]

That's part of the job.

Can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen, or

Don't act like your surprised when the head chef kicks your ass out.

No, that's not part of his job. His job is to investigate, not do a pre-emptive PR for Trump before the investigation is over.

Let's say, for the sake of argument, that he went out and said "Trump isn't under investigation' and the next day, the Russian Pee Tapes show up on the internet. He'd look pretty silly, wouldn't he?

 

[JoeB131]

That issue has been settled.

So you put them both under Oath and they both say "We talked about our grandkids".

Somehow, I don't think you are going to believe them, but that would kind of be the end of the matter.

 

[JoeB131]

I don't even know what it is you're talking about with that one, Joey! Why don't you take a time out and get your thoughts together? Right now you've embarrassing yourself.

Yeah, that display yesterday was kind of embarrassing. Sorry, I can't remember Obama or Bush or Clinton ever doing anything like that.

 

[JoeB131]

Colin Powell and Condi Rice ran the State Department through private servers they set up in their private residences...servers that they hid from Congress when asked about them? Really Joey?

No, they just used private emails and couldn't produce those emails when they were supeoned by Congress when Congress finally got around to asking 'How did we get into a war that killed 100,000 people over weapons that didn't exist?"

The Director of the FBI saw some of the material that was on Clinton's servers...he said that she had classified materials there.

Material that she didn't send, someone else did. Probably someone who had no idea that it was classified because it was reclassified after the fact.

which isn't a big deal, as she had a security clearance to see that kind of stuff. Which you guys keep forgetting.

No puppies, Joey...just incredibly sleazy actions...and then a whole bunch of lies to cover up what she had been doing!

again, guy, I think Trump making money off the presidency is a lot sleazier than anything Clinton did by using the wrong kind of email because the State Department system sucked.

 

[rightwinger]

...but refused to publicly state that Trump wasn't under investigation......

You don't have a clue how the FBI works do you? They announce investigations when they go public, ex: seeking a grand jury indictment. They don't announce who isn't under investigation, because the list would be 320,000,000 people long.

Very few of the 320,000,000 is the Commander in Chief, are they?

He told members of congress that Trump wasn't under investigation. No reason at all that he couldn't tell (or leak) that info to the general population

Trump is not under investigation, until he is
That time will come if or when an underling informs that Trump was involved in illegal activities

 

[rightwinger]

I don't even know what it is you're talking about with that one, Joey! Why don't you take a time out and get your thoughts together? Right now you've embarrassing yourself.

Yeah, that display yesterday was kind of embarrassing. Sorry, I can't remember Obama or Bush or Clinton ever doing anything like that.

It was humiliating

Who could sit through something like that?

The fact that it was done so that she could make money through pay for play is what's really disgusting and it's laughable that you don't see that for what it was!

 

[Dragonlady]

The uneducated comments above are interesting.

Comey has invigorated the Russian hacking and collusion investigations.

Trump's prior knowledge probably did not include the campaign stupidity of some of his associates.

If he covered up or lied after find out about the hacking and the collusion (if he did), Mueller will find it.

Invigorated? He blew that clear the hell out of the water. WTF are you thinking?

Comey said the Russians most definitely interfered with the election. And Flynn, and other members of Trump's team were in the pay of or had been paid by Russian interests, and they had a LOT of contacts with Russia during the campaign.

Come on, DL...that's six degrees of separation stuff! Yes, the Russian tried to interfere in the election but it's nothing that they haven't done before. To say that there was some sinister "collusion" taking place because some people on the Trump team know some Russians is ridiculous!

You know what this is? It's an excuse being put forth by Hillary Clinton for why she lost! (along with dozens of other things she's now blaming for her defeat...none of which include her own scandals!) It's also a way for the Democrats to prevent Trump from moving ahead with his agenda.

Idiot, before Comey testified, just based on what he said he was going to say, I said there was nothing there. As far as the special prosecutor, he's going after Trump's people, not Clinton.
