Sarah Huckabee Sanders at WH Press Briefing: James Comey "Gave False Testimony"
I imagine this was in response to a question about Steve Bannon calling Comey's firing a huge mistake.
She does make a good point on this. It's good to see these issues being raised, and not politely either.Sarah Sanders accuses former FBI Director of giving "false testimony" pic.twitter.com/T4hklahCIk

He went before congress and testified under oath that he had not made a decision about charging Hillary until the investigation was completed, but in fact he was circulating a memo around the FBI containing his rationalization for his decision not to charge her MONTHS before the investigation ended, and before several key witnesses were even interviewed.
Comey is a liar and a fraud, and Trump was right to fire him. His only mistake was not doing it sooner.

It was the timing of the Firing that was bad and also the process...The way he was humiliated. I did not see a point to that and I think it hurt PDT.

The FBI, being part of the federal bureaucracy has proven unable to investigate the federal bureaucracy. This shouldn't be a shock as organizations that police themselves usually end up doing it very poorly.
Perhaps Trump will clean things up a bit...but then the next Democrat administration and we are back to the existing clown show.
I think this can be fixed though by changing the reporting structure of the FBI.
I propose that the head of the FBI serves a two year term. After two years, each state governor votes to retain or fire the head of the FBI. If 26 vote to remove, each state can nominate a replacement. Every governor gets a vote. We have a run off if no one gets to 26 votes.
This was the FBI serves the states and can effectively police the federal government in a way it cannot now.

It doesn't mean Comey didn't deserve it, but if Trump's goal was he didn't want to deal with Russia nonsense, he made sure it had legs when he fired Comey over that.
Just flip it around, if Comey said he was looking into Hillary's email and Obama fired him, our side would be screaming about it.
Trump's colossal two screw ups were not firing Comey on Day 1 and letting Sessions recuse himself. He should have asked for Sessions resignation if he felt he had to recuse himself.

Sarah is what we'd call a nice corn fed gal around her. She's about like a great-aunt of mine was in her heyday. I only knew her in her older years, but even then, she was one with whom one did not fuck with.
One they told about that aunt and this would've been way back, likely probably in the late '30s or '40s. Her husband, my grandmother's brother, was something of a bit talker. He had a heart of mush, but he'd talk big.
Women smoking was becoming a thing, and he said if every caught any wife of his smokin, he'd whip her ass. Well, my aunt her him say that, unbeknownst to him.
That weekend, she got some of her friends over, from school where she taught, and they had a smoking party. My uncle was out and came back in. When he got in, she took a drag off a cigarette and blew the smoke right in his direction, and said, "Well, commence to whuppin!".
He just walked out and never said a word.

She said that "Steve likes to use extreme words in his comments , I'm sure CBS is pleased with the ratings of the interview. I'm here to report the for the president."
She was then asked if Trump had watched the interview, and she said she didn't know if he had watched the entire interview , she knows he has seen clips.
On and on with the questions about Bannon. She finally told the press it was funny how she was getting more questions about Bannon now than when he was in the administration.

Trump had cause.
Comey read an "intent" requirement into a crime that does not HAVE an "intent" requirement as a rationalization for not charging Hillary for her crimes.
In doing so, Comey undermined the rule of law. That alone would have been justification enough.
Posted by: TrivialPursuer at September 11, 2017 04:31 PM (BXf9o)
Besides not being cause in my opinion, you think there wouldn't be blowback if Trump fired Comey because he didn't refer Clinton for prosecution?

There's actually some merit to that, my fear is that certain Republicans buy into it and it also gums up getting things done on Capitol hill.
Also, these investigation will probably lead to some bullshit charges, I can almost guarantee you Manafort will go down for something trivial that has zero to do with Russian collusion.

I still can't understand why it's not standard practice to fire every appointee as soon as the election results have been confirmed. There is no such thing as neutrality in politics, and every one of these positions is political purely because you are brought in to further a particular policy. With change of administration there is a change in policy therefore there must be a change in personnel.

False testimony criminal charges of perjury/obstructing justice
are different. To be a crime, false testimony has to be material to an
issue before the court.
If in the course of testifying about embezzling, a woman falsely
testifies about her dress size or age, that won't ring the criminal
bell.

Well as I have said many times, the timing was a mistake and so was the added humiliation. I would have fired comey day 1.

Obama offered the phony "intent" standard, i.e., "She meant no harm", which is irrelevant. When Trump said "I hope you can let this go" about Flynn, that was supposedly Obstruction of Justice. Yet when Obama pronounced her innocent, essentially ordering the Justice Department to do the same, That's Just Good Government Cos' Everybody Knows That My Trousers Are Perfectly Creased!
Somehow the question of the Clintons having their own personal version of the US Code never even arises anymore. But the question that interests me is this:
When all our Chinese spies went missing in 2010, did Hillary do that negligently or did Obama do it purposely? Or both?

He deserved to be fired, but if Trump had done that day one, he would have been accused of doing it to derail the Russia investigation. He also kept hearing from Comey privately that there was nothing to it, Trump would not be accused, blah blah blah.
So he foolishly bought into the crap being shoveled to him, that the Russia thing was nothing. And Comey kept leaking and leaking, and doing as much damage as he could get away with. Finally trump wised up and fired his ass - but it was too late, damage done.
Look, people try to do the right thing, be nice, give the benefit of the doubt. It is exactly what Comey counted on. It is exactly what the press played up. Sessions and Trump didn't know the guy was double dealing until it was too late.

We are witnessing some realtime theater.
Bannon baits the media, they go into feeding frenzy, and then Sanders reels 'em in.

I don't get Bannon on this one. Jimmy Drama had to go. Maybe sooner.
Jimmy Drama has exposure, criminally. Let us pray Sessions is on this and other related matters.
Can't wait to see Mueller's expression when this all gets exposed.

Jimmy Drama didn't think that Trump had the balls to fire him. Watergate Saturday Night Massacre, redux. Silly rabbit.
