It's about time! Comey has been protecting the Clintons for years!
Trump can feel the strands of the noose scratching his neck as it tightens. I think the Russian connections and financing are why he refuses to release his tax returns, and I believe Comey was getting close to the truth.

Comey, BTW, just met with a Grand Jury in Virginia. There may be an indictment recommendation already returned for Trump/

Time for a special prosecutor and a new President in 2020.

This is a dictator we are living with and it is sickening!
I agree 100%!

I know I'm OLD.. But what's happening now is very similar path of what Nixon tried to do back in the the early '70's!! I'm sure there are a lot here who have no clue about how Nixon got impeached... BUT back then there was NO such thing as Digital Data.. BUT what Nixon did have was Video tapes 9 which he tried to hide).. along with a lot of attempts to discredit and deny deny deny everything.

Watergate Scandal Timeline

Course back in the '70's there was a far more Bipartisan relationship in Congress... But what Trump does actually mirror what Administration does ( in order to halt/shutdown investigations).. Firing Comey, caused his own issues.. But, the Love Hate of him for Trump has been exposed... He likely already knew or should have known much of this ( especially after yesterdays hearing) plus Comey being forced to clarify those transferred E-mails.

The History Place - Impeachment: Richard Nixon


It seems it's ALWAYS the coverups that snag those powerful peeps!! Firing of someone, or distracting since the age of Digital/social media has expended it a thousand fold!! But, after yesterday, I don't think the firing of Acting AG had anything to do with NOT supporting Trump's EO.. But more about the BAD news she informed "Legal Council" about High Risk surrounding Flynn.. Trump made sure she was NOT in the loops about the EO contents.. SMH

I'm not emotionally connected .. but watching from outside and can see the rudimentary gut reactions of those protecting and trying to HIDE S-O-M-E-T-H-I-N-G because They know!! Indeed Coverups, silence folks, Intimidate will always be the symptoms of " Somebody is HIDING something"!! Actually believe Trump refusing to disclose his Tax Returns was the First symptom of such "Hide and Seek" game he's playing!!

Democrats admitting this is what they wanted too is not going to happen when they can use it as a cudgel to hammer Trump over the head with instead.

That could have caused some security issues. You don't fire the FBI the first day. You need time to transition. Trump did this right.

I'm just waiting to hear the songs all the Trump apologists sing when he goes down for treason.

The president fires the man who was investigating him for criminal wrongdoing. Sounds about right for Trump.

This. Pretty obvious at this point there is no fire.

Default Can Trump nominate a new, impartial FBI director to investigate him now?...

I think there is no way Trump nominates someone independent and impartial to investigate his alleged wrongdoings. Sad.

And that's what he should have done, instead Trump waited until Comey was knee-deep in investigating him before he decided to fire him.

Do you not realize how bad this makes Trump look? If he's not guilty then he sure does have a strange way of expressing it. He should have fired Comey on January 20th ... now he makes himself look like a 3rd world dictator covering his rear end.
