Days before he was fired, James B. Comey, the former F.B.I. director, asked the Justice Department for a significant increase in money and personnel for the bureau’s investigation into Russia’s interference in the presidential election, according to three officials with knowledge of his request.

Mr. Comey asked for the resources during a meeting last week with Rod J. Rosenstein, the deputy attorney general who wrote the Justice Department’s memo that was used to justify the firing of the F.B.I. director this week.

Mr. Comey then briefed members of Congress on the meeting in recent days.


The heat is getting a bit too much for comrade Trump.

Gotta cut the budget somewhere. Why waste taxpayer money on a witch hunt?

You mean we saved money on the firing and his financial request?

Yeah, it was all about the money. Never mind that a bipartisan group of former attorneys general agreed with Comey's dismissal.

“I agree with the nearly unanimous opinions of former Department officials,” Rosenstein says, after quoting several of them (including former attorneys general from both Democratic and Republican administrations):

Yeah, I mean, Trump is such a paragon of honesty and all, how could anyone doubt that?

According to Trump. You know, this guy:

Donald Trump has said 213 false things in his first 100 days. Here are all of them

Although that article was written 10 days ago. There's probably another dozen or two since then.
