Big Takeaways from Comey's Testimony

I leaked like a boat made out of spaghetti strainers. Comey admits he leaked his memo to a "friend" for purposes of that friend then leaking it to the New York Times.

"I asked a friend of mine to share the content of the memo with a reporter," Comey said. "I didn't do it myself for a variety of reasons."

Marco Rubio asks a damn fine question. Noting Comey's pre-written testimony, Rubio noted that Comey had three big things to say: Trump asked for his loyalty; Trump said he hoped Comey could let the Flynn matter go; and Trump was, just as Trump said, not the subject of an investigation.

Why, Rubio asked, did only two of those items leak? Why was the third such a closely-held government secret while the first two were freely shared with the press?

This wasn't in Comey's testimony, but the Daily Caller reports that state officials say that throughout 2015 and 2016 Obama told them there was no threat of Russian hacking.

Comey said that Trump never asked him to stop the investigation, nor did anyone from his administration.

Comey revealed that Loretta Lynch -- not Trump, but Loretta Lynch -- sought to interfere in an FBI investigation, by demanding he only refer to the Hillary Email investigation as "a matter," in accordance with the Hillary Clinton campaign's spin that this was just a "matter of looking into things," rather than an actual criminal investigation.

When Comey asked Lynch if she was going to authorize him to confirm the existence of the Clinton email investigation, her answer was, "Yes but don't call it that. Call it a matter." When Comey asked why, he said, Lynch wouldn’t give him an explanation. "Just call it a matter," Lynch said.
Comey added later that he was concerned about that direction as it was false. He was further concerned because it aligned with the Clinton campaign’s spin on the investigation.
Lynch's order, Comey said, "concerned me because that language tracked the way the campaign was talking about the FBI's work and that’s concerning."

Comey's big complaint seems to be that Trump said bad things about him. Go figure that was this beanstalk Reverend Parris' big complaint.

"And although the law required no reason at all to fire an FBI director, the administration then chose to defame me and more importantly the FBI, by saying that the organization was in disarray, that it was poorly led, that the workforce had lost confidence in its leader," Comey said in his opening remarks at the hearing.

NBC reporter takes Comey's revelation about Lynch improperly telling Comey to refer to Hillary investigation as only "a matter," and claims Trump told Comey to only refer to Trump investigation as "a matter."

Comey wasn't the main actor on this, but he was complicit. That he put Martha Stewart in jail for deleting but then undeleting a single e-mail and for doing a humana humana when his FBI goons came knocking on her door (but she wasn't charged with any "real" crime) speaks volumes about what a cocksucking shitweasel he really is.

113 Anecdotal time.

Came to visit my parent's house yesterday. I was actually shocked when my mom started ranting about all this Russian shit. She literally used the word 'fake news' and called dems traitors.

Keep in mind, my mom is the last person in the world you'd expect to ever get political. She completely tuned out the election last year and hasn't voted since 2000 (and my dad had to drag her to vote). She always says she doesn't like Trump but hates Hillary more.

Now she keeps defending Trump more and more. Especially every time there's a terrorist attack in Europe and the media goes ape shit about something Trump said.

'They let all those refugees in and yet everyone is mad at Trump for pointing it out.'

Had to explain to her that not 'everyone' is against Trump - the media just makes it appear that way.

Anyway, my point is that I think the left is fucking big time. They've lost their damn minds (more than usual) and they're turning even non people off.

198 Comey added later that he was concerned about that direction as it was false. He was further concerned because it aligned with the Clinton campaign's spin on the investigation.

Lynch's order, Comey said, "concerned me because that language tracked the way the campaign was talking about the FBI's work and that's concerning."

But ... after thinking about it for a few minutes and talking it over with my dog, I decided to help Emperor Barky and Queen Shrillary by turning the resources of the FBI against the Poopyhead, Donald Trump. My dog's a cocker spaniel and, well ... cockers are very bright, you know.

235 Nothing at all ever gets settled with the left except their climate science and the innocence of their gods and goddesses.

If it's a "matter" for the right, it never gets settled, but keeps stewing in a mush of "concerns" and allegations made by unnamed sources.

As Dershowitz just said in a clip Rush ran, there needs to be no crime at all for congress to impeach and convict and remove a sitting president. Impeachment is purely political. The reason can be as simple as not liking Trump's tan and hair.

So why not just go with it right now, democrats?

We know the reason. They want to keep this up and ramp it up to a noise level that will a.) stimulate their base and fundraising, b.) hamstring the congress from passing anything at all, and c.) delegitimize Trump so as to make his re-election impossible.

And of course they have the media on their side completely.

As I've said before, there is never going to be an indictment of Hillary Clinton. She would be tried in either DC or NY, and there is zero chance in either place of empaneling a jury that does not include at least one die-hard Democrat who would never, ever vote to convict her, no matter how damning the evidence. She could rob a bodega, smile and wave at he camera, and still she wouldn't be convicted. Knowing this, no prosecutor will ever charge her. At best, she will be named as an unindicted co-conspirator.

Sir, you admit to leaking stories through proxies to the media... how can the Head of the Agency that is supposed to be STOPPING leaks... leak?

Agreed. Mills, Abedin, the IT guy, and others were all involved in a conspiracy, and Hillary was a co-conspirator.

300 Regarding Comey's "...lies, plain and simple" line. He is supposed to be a former head of the FBI. I would think someone in that position would be expected to know the difference between fact and opinion. The "lies" were Trump's opinion that the FBI was in disarray. Does he really not understand that opinions cannot be labeled "lies"? These comments were prepared. Clearly meant as political weapon against Trump. These are not the comments of a professional law enforcement official, but of a politician.

Comey Breaks Silence: White House Tried To Force Incapacitated Ashcroft To Back Spying Program

In March 2004, President Bush's warrantless domestic spying efforts were temporarily suspended after then-acting Attorney General James Comey refused to sign on to an extension of the program "amid concerns about its legality and oversight."

313 I have a hard time when Dems talk about "obstruction of justice" for DJT, who was told he was not under investigation, for suggesting (as his boss, and with no threats) that Comey stop investigating a nothingburger of "collusion" for which zero evidence has ever been put forward.

It is particularly hard, in this context, getting over the fact that Hillary deleted over 30,000 emails after (AFTER! CONCLUSIVELY ESTABLISHED) receiving a House Subpoena for her emails, and yet was not charged for obstruction of justice.

Even if the ridonculous explanation of "no intent" in mishandling of classified info is accepted (for a law that requires none, and has been routinely enforced that way) Hillary presented the clearest possible case of obstruction of justice I've ever heard of.

And, let it be mentioned that she is fully effing familiar with what Subpoenas are and are not supposed to mean to preserve evidence including flouting Grand Jury and Senate Subpoenas for Rose Law firm documents that mysteriously "turned up" years in her private documents years after the investigations were concluded.

Comey is the least of it. Loretta Lynch deserves to be in jail almost as much as Hillary.
