I dare them to try that.
Oh, dear. You do know the firing is the obstruction of justice, right?

BORING.. what exactly is going to come from this?? So far,


1. Trump lies sometimes
2. Trump said he "hoped" for an outcome
3. Comey was instructed (not that they "hoped" he would) to down play Clinton investigation by AG Lynch
4. Trump was not under investigation while Comey was FBI Director
5. Russia tried to influence our election
6. Comey leaked his own memo in hopes a special prosecutor would be appointed


Anything else? What a waste of time.

That's worth squat.

It seems you could see Trump stab somebody right in front of you, and you would insist the guy fell on the knife.

Those are smart words. Can you take that same advice?

Default The two take aways from Comey Hearing

It's not over yet but the two take aways that I think are the most important for the American people to consider are...


As for Russian meddling in our election. No votes were changed.

As for obstruction of Justice by Trump. He never asked Comey to stop the Flynn investigation.


What more is there to say? I think all this goes to show that Trump is not a politician and he is not a lawyer but he does need to start guarding his words like one.


It is interesting given the bi partisan panel that it seems the Republicans on that panel are digging around a large rock looking for possible treasure whereas the Democrats are trying to split that rock in the hopes of finding something.

In the end will the panel ever come out and say there is nothing here and if they do will the media then let it go?

The investigation is still ongoing. Who sits in the director's chair has no bearing on what the field agents are doing. Vietnam did not end when JFK was killed.

No, its not because as Comey just said "the work goes on, whether I'm there or not".
Oh dear.

Meaning that no president can ever fire the head of the FBI at any time because the head may be secretly investigating the President.

Yeah, you got us there.

According to libs Trump believed the FBI would fold if he fired Comey.

I know you all like to bring up constantly that we are just as bad as Russians.

I still don't like the Russians tell us what to do.
