"Mr. Comey’s fate was sealed by his latest testimony... Mr. Trump burned as he watched, convinced that Mr. Comey was grandstanding."

"He was particularly irked when Mr. Comey said he was 'mildly nauseous' to think that his handling of the email case had influenced the election, which Mr. Trump took to demean his own role in history. At that point, Mr. Trump began talking about firing him. He and his aides thought they had an opening because Mr. Comey gave an incorrect account of how Huma Abedin, a top adviser to Mrs. Clinton, transferred emails to her husband’s laptop, an account the F.B.I. later corrected...."

Excellent detail to the story of how Trump fired Comey, in "'Enough Was Enough': How Festering Anger at Comey Ended in His Firing" (NYT).

Also: "... Mr. Comey thought the president was unlikely to get rid of him because that might be interpreted as a conclusion that the F.B.I. director was wrong to announce shortly before the election that he was re-examining the email case, which would call into question the legitimacy of Mr. Trump’s victory." Comey thought wrong, and it says something about how Trump analyzes these things. The election was already called into question. The questioning was continual and unrelenting. Not firing Comey would never stop the questions. Might as well go ahead and fire him, since everything Trump says and does is used against him. Trump must be inured to criticism, and that stupid mistake about Huma created an opportunity.

If Congress attempts to drag the executive branch in for every conceivable thing (once again we see Chuck fully aligned with the far left, unexpectedly), Trump will do what I am did: claim executive privilege.

Not that McConnell and Ryan will allow the "lifelong republicans"/Dems to do that.

How do they think this is going to happen? McCabe said the FBI investigation is definitely continuing, even without Comey. What the hell was Trump thinking?

http://www.cnn.com/2017/05/11/politics/comey-fbi-investigation-russia-sarah-huckabee-sanders/

(CNN)The White House said Thursday that removing FBI Director James Comey from his post may hasten the agency's investigation into Russian meddling.

"We want this to come to its conclusion, we want it to come to its conclusion with integrity," said deputy press secretary Sarah Sanders, referring to the FBI's probe into Moscow's interference in last year's election. "And we think that we've actually, by removing Director Comey, taken steps to make that happen."

The statement was a surprising admission from the White House that Comey's sudden dismissal on Tuesday may have an effect on the Russia probe."

I like how Trump firing someone investigating him is bad optics, and therefore, fascism, even though the investigation will continue.

Obama firing multiple people investigating him is... fine, not worth remarking on, and stopped the investigations cold.

It's almost like the left doesn't actually care about the integrity of investigations.

"Rosenstein Pressed White House to Correct the Record on Comey Firing

Deputy attorney general objected to White House description of events, and hinted he couldn’t work in an environment where facts weren’t accurately reported.

WASHINGTON—Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein pressed White House counsel Don McGahn to correct what he felt was an inaccurate White House depiction of the events surrounding FBI Director James Comey’s firing, according to a person familiar with the conversation.

Mr. Rosenstein left the impression that he couldn’t work in an environment where facts weren’t accurately reported, the person said. The deputy attorney general objected to statements by White House aides citing Mr. Rosenstein’s critical assessment of Mr.Comey’s job performance to justify the firing."

Jason Chaffetz has asked the DOJ IG to investigate the circumstances of Comey’s firing. Other Republicans have started making noises about an “independent counsel.” In short, fewer and fewer in the GOP are concerned about publicly challenging Trump and, as 2018 approaches, with a little bit of bad luck you could see Republicans start running against Trump out of self-preservation.

For the record, i don't think Comey was grandstanding. I think he was squirming--and has been squirming for a long time--about his actions prior to the election. I think he was earnestly trying to explain himself. Which I think is impossible but he had to try.

Trump has done Comey a big favor. Last week the Democrats hated him, and now that Trump fired him they all love him. He should have no trouble finding another job.

A National Security Investigation seeks to
find a secret agent aiding another Nation we are at war with and offer him a deal to turn on them.

So Trump is a secret Russian agent or nothing. Talking to Russian we are not at war with is a politica show, and as such proof or evidence is not needed. Just a good fiction script.

All Trump wants is for the Investigation to
Be finished and admit ther is no evidence.

The Deep State laughs at his optimism.

Michael K: "I tend to agree but he should have resigned."

No way was he ever going to resign. His "job" was to keep the investigation going indefinitely.

That's why the dems are howling. They lost their point man in the Trump/Russia collusion charade. Now there might actually be a director coming on board who will force this investigation to proceed one way or the other.

That's the last thing the dems want as they already know the collusion lie was just an attempt to deflect attention from what will be coming out shortly regarding domestic spying and unmasking/leaking.

Not to mention the many, many, other obambi era investigations that were stopped dead in their tracks by Comey/Lynch/Holder which might just find their way back onto the "active" track.

That's another reason why the dems are now saying they won't even consider a replacement director until a special prosecutor is appointed. The dems desperately need a special prosecutor to bury this thing for the next several years.

You might have noticed that there is now a concerted push by the dems to get Rosenstein to recuse himself!! The guy they just approved 94-6 2 weeks ago is suddenly not "up to the task"!

What a truly idiotic comment. How the hell will Trump be impeached if the investigation drags on forever? If Trump is indicted and then found guilty of collusion with the Russians, not even the most loyal Trumpist in the House and then the Senate will stand by him.

Republicans need to grow up and act like adults that won elections and control the govt of the United States. Trump is not a politician, and will never trend in that direction. Firing Comey was within his power, end of sentence. That is all the administration should say. "The President wants a Director of the FBI he can trust. THE END. Congressional Republicans should circle the wagons and take the lead of Sen Charles Grassely, who responded to a media question about the hurt feelings of Democrats. " I Suggest they suck it up, and move on."
When ever there is a media interview, Republicans should start and end the interview with a history lesson. The people have rejected the Democrat agenda to the tune of losing the House, the Senate, the Oval Office, and more then 1000 elected seats across the Nation. The Democrats have concerns...And nobody cares. See you in November 2018. The get back to tax reform, and fixing the health insurance fiasco known as ObamaCare. That is the only thing voters will base their vote on. Not the circus the leftist are focused on.

Re-posting a post by Mockturtle----

Here are 10 of Comey’s biggest embarrassments at the FBI:

1. Before he bombed the Boston Marathon, the FBI interviewed Tamerlan Tsarnaev but let him go. Russia sent the Obama Administration a second warning, but the FBI opted against investigating him again….

3. The FBI had possession of emails sent by Nidal Hasan saying he wanted to kill his fellow soldiers to protect the Taliban — but didn’t intervene, leading many critics to argue the tragedy that resulted in the death of 31 [sic; actually 13] Americans at Fort Hood could have been prevented.

4. During the Obama Administration, the FBI claimed that two private jets were being used primarily for counterterrorism, when in fact they were mostly being used for Eric Holder and Robert Mueller’s business and personal travel….

8. The father of the radical Islamist who detonated a backpack bomb in New York City in 2016 alerted the FBI to his son’s radicalization. The FBI, however, cleared Ahmad Khan Rahami after a brief interview.

9. The FBI also investigated the terrorist who killed 49 people and wounded 53 more at the Pulse Nightclub in Orlando, Fla. Despite a more than 10-month investigation of Omar Mateen — during which Mateen admitting lying to agents — the FBI opted against pressing further and closed its case.

10. CBS recently reported that when two terrorists sought to kill Americans attending the “Draw Muhammad” event in Garland, Texas, the FBI not only had an understanding an attack was coming, but actually had an undercover agent traveling with the Islamists, Elton Simpson and Nadir Soofi. The FBI has refused to comment on why the agent on the scene did not intervene during the attack.

Trump wanted a pledge of loyalty?! If true, this is chilling.

https://www.axios.com/report-trump-asked-comey-for-loyalty-pledge-2403809724.html

"The New York Times reports that just a week after taking office, President Trump asked James Comey to promise to be loyal to him, and Comey declined.

The scene: Per NYT, citing two people who had heard Comey's account, the request came during a private dinner for which Comey was "summoned" to the White House.

The White House denies this account. Earlier Thursday Trump told NBC's Lester Holt that Comey had asked him over dinner whether he could keep his job. He said he thought Comey had requested the dinner.

Key excerpt: "Later in the dinner, Mr. Trump again said to Mr. Comey that he needed his loyalty. Mr. Comey again replied that he would give him 'honesty' and did not pledge his loyalty."

Key takeaways: 1. This tallies with earlier reports from CNN's Jake Tapper and others that Trump wanted and didn't receive an assurance of loyalty. 2. After Trump's harsh comments about Comey, the Comey camp clearly wants to get his side of the story out."

How the hell will Trump be impeached if the investigation drags on forever?

You missed the point, Inga. There’s no danger of Trump being impeached because after months of exhaustive investigation none of the various investigative bodies have come up with any evidence of collusion – the reason being: There was no collusion.

What they want is a permanent investigation of all things Trump. Then they can invent anonymous “sources,” speculate, imply, distort and lie about the “investigation.”

The Director of the FBI does not need to pledge his loyalty to the President.

If I were the next FBI Director I think I might refrain from calling any of my bosses “crazy.”

The scene: Per NYT, citing two people who had heard Comey's account, the request came during a private dinner for which Comey was "summoned" to the White House.

This isn’t credible. For starters, it’s third hand. Also, we cannot believe anything coming from Comey OR the fucking NYT in regards to anything having to do with Trump. I’ll bet the “two people” are unnamed, right? O those anonymous sources!

Love the word, “summoned.” If the dinner had actually taken place(which I doubt), I’m imagining Trump telling Priebus, “Tell Comey to get his whining ass over here, his crazy boss wants to see him.”

Upon scanning the NYT article I came across the following quote:

A businessman and reality television star who never served in public office, Mr. Trump may not have understood that by tradition, F.B.I. directors are not supposed to be political loyalists, which is why Congress in the 1970s passed a law giving them 10-year terms to make them independent of the president. (emphasis mine)

It’s a pretty well-known law so it is puzzling to me how the NYT got this wrong. Don’t they use Google or Wiki? The FBI Director is NOT “independent.” He has some bosses who can fire him. Here's the relevant info:

A Director can be removed from office by the President on the recommendation of the Attorney-General and the Deputy Attorney-General.

Inga, relying on the NYT for accuracy is foolish.

I wish someone would illuminate me on what the exact nature of the charges would be … So far all I've heard is that some people talked to other people ... maybe?

A couple of months ago I came across an article online that I cannot find again, dammit! It claimed to have evidence of collusion and interference by the Russians. It referred almost exclusively to instances of interference in the election by “RT.” What the hell is “RT”? I finally figured it out: “RT” stands for(you’re not going to believe this) Russian Television!

Since running across the ridiculous Russian Television “evidence” article I’ve not seen any other evidence of collusion or interference. Have I missed anything? Has any other “evidence” been revealed? Wiki has nothing but speculation. Google doesn’t turn up anything.
