No, that's not the definition of Fake news. Getting bad sourcing on a story doesn't mean they intentionally made it up. You guys have turned "Fake news" into a meaningless rallying cry for the ignorant right wing.

And I thought Comey was lying about his meeting with Trump? So he's right about the news, but wrong about what Trump said?

Comey is an entrenched Washington bureaucrat who has a history of protecting the Clintons.

Here's a quick and dirty guideline to follow... when the NYT does not allow reader comments on a story, it's probably fake news.

Lots of people also ignore the powerhouse of people Mueller brought on this case. The country's best criminal lawyer. The guy who prosecuted Enron. A Watergate prosecutor. The guy who took down one of the worst crime bosses in the country's history.

It's the Avengers of lawyers on this case. You don't put together that kind of team if you don't have some major criminal behavior going on.

Hell has a special place for this wench.
This has nothing to do with Clinton, so quit with the deflection.

Did I miss it or have they learned to keep things quiet?

Has there been any reliable info that came out about the closed session with Comey?

But keep on believin' your believin'.

Just that Sessions likely had a 3rd undisclosed meeting with Ambassador Kislyak that he lied under oath about. He's testifying Tuesday in front of the Senate Intel Committee about it.

Senator Feinstein has called for Loretta Lynch to testify on her actions. She said it should be a separate investigation. The plot thickens.

Impressive? I don't think so.

First--the $400k salary is a drop in the bucket of what taxpayers are paying for his and his entire family's extravagant lifestyle, including the rent and utilities he charging the Secret Service. (And I don't know why that isn't considered self-dealing). The profits he is making off of his office far outweigh a salary. Since he was elected he has doubled the $100k membership fee for Maralago.

Second--how do you know he is donating his salary? Because he says so? Lol--he's a pathological liar. The only way we would know this is if he releases his tax returns--and we know that will never happen.

He doesn't believe in 'good causes.' He forced Eric's charity for children with cancer to pay him for use of his golf course. About $300k for one day.
