He leaked executive privileged info to the NYT, confirmed he lied to congress in earlier testimony, and confirmed he did tell Trump he was not under investigation.

He will be facing criminal charges

Nutjob Comey

Comey crushed the narrative that trump was under investigation. Comey said he wasnt.

Comey said trump never asked him to stop the russia investigation.

Comey called trump a liar.

Now we know Lynch told Comey to not call it an investigation.

Like I said, nothing of importance.

Trump hired a bunch of people who were under fbi investigation and he thinks the fbi director works for him and not the American people.

Also...the navy are waiters.

He admitted he colluded with Loretta Lynch to obstruct justice in the Hillary Clinton email investigation.

I hope they appoint a special counsel to go after Comey.

He also admitted to being one of the leakers.


He is a pure piece of shite.


James Comey meddled in our election 10 X's more than "Muh Russians"

Comedy didn't trust or likeTrump before they even met, but he wanted to keep his job.
Russia didn't change one vote.
Comey did tell Trump he was not under investigation, and it wasn't solicited.
Unnamed sources are generally ignorant and wrong.
NY Times and rest of media IS fake news.
There is no evidence of collusion.
Obama administration pressured him to aid Clinton campaign.
Comey lied about when he leaked his memo to MSM
Trump did not verbally or nonverbally order him to drop Flynn investigation, but he perceived it as an order because they were alone.
And both senators Harris and McCain have no clue.

-Lynch obstructed the Hillary investigation
-Trump has never been under investigation
-The MSM are just making up their IC sources
-Comey leaked info to the press
-Comey was offended about being asked to be loyal to his boss, because Comey had been leaking to the press
-Trump peeps and Russian officials were never under surveillance
-Even though he never wanted to be alone with Trump, he kept taking his calls
-Trump has the right to fire him
-Trump never obstructed him
-Trump has the right to end any investigation, but the Flynn investigation continued even after Trump "hoped" it wouldn't
-Comey did tell Trump on 3 occasions that he wasn't under investigation
-Comey was afraid of Trump (literally)

Comey is not mentally all there (my hot take)

1) Not a whole lot more than what was released in the pre-testimony release.
2) He doesn't trust Trump, he thinks Trump can't tell the truth.
3) He's absolutely confident that Russia interfered in the election.
4) Sessions may have had more substantial contacts with the Russians than he's already given.
5) Trump may have suggested to Comey to give up the Flynn investigation but Comey didn't think it was obstuction.
6) Trump wasn't a subject of investigation at the time he was let go. But, that doesn't mean he's not a subject of interest right now.
7) Pence knew about Flynn's contacts with the Russians, while Pence was on the transition team investigating Flynn.
8) Comey leaked the memo's of the Trump meetings so he could get the special prosecutor. Whether this was breaking executive priveledge is up to debate since none of the memos were classified. But a lot of people here seem to think that Comey is going to jail for it, but I really doubt it, considering that Comey is a not only the former head of the FBI but also a lawyer so he wouldn't do something so obvious to get himself into trouble.
