It looks like Comey is now under IG investigation for releasing classified information in his memos.

It's interesting that even Comey himself in his memos says this information is classified, but he releases to the public. It looks like they are trying the Hillary defense, they weren't classified at the time.

This WSJ article is full of spin, but they are reporting this.


WASHINGTON—At least two of the memos that former FBI Director James Comey gave to a friend outside of the government contained information that officials now consider classified, according to people familiar with the matter, prompting a review by the Justice Department’s internal watchdog.

The Justice Department inspector general is now conducting an investigation into classification issues related to the Comey memos, according to a person familiar with the matter.

That's what he gets for laying down with flea ridden dogs. He will be thrown under the bus in a heartbeat too.

I'd be surprised if he finishes his book tour. He seems willing to roll on Lynch. If he's offer the right deal he might sing and compose.

Perhaps a few months of "diesel therapy" will be administered along the way. We can only hope for the worst for this piece of human debris.
Welcome to City-Data forums and a +5 from me for such an agreeable comment.

You guys are traitors, there is no other way to say that. So indifferent about trump's dereliction of duty and halting sanctions imposed by congress or even recommended by his own admin, cozying up to a thug.
When the dust settles, Lynch and Manaford should resume their positions somewhere in D.C.

They will be totally exonerated.

Oh, and one more thing about your proselytizing, BOOMERANG!

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

All the news services got redacted copies of the released memos yesterday. Comey leaked them to his brofessor last year who then leaked them to WaPo and NYT.

THAT is illegal!
Before we go rolling up on McCabe, we need to figure out who's controlling his strings and pressing him to lie.

I don't think he's off the Ranch on this deal by a longshot.

I have no idea if they will charge Comey or not, but we've seen the "they weren't classified at the time" defense before by Hillary, and it was a lie.
What? Like with a cloth or something?

C stands for Cloth right? Clinton?

How did Comey do that?
The physical memos were at the FBI
The Congress got hold of them and bingo so did NBC

Classifying something after the fact is an old trick used to get someone in trouble when there was no issue initially

That's all you got? An Inspection General inquiry that can only have internal consequences? Vs all the criminal charges brought up trump's world? give me a break
