re: NYT: Comey and Columbia professor under criminal investigation

What’s to investigate?

Law enforcement officials are scrutinizing at least two news articles about the F.B.I. and Mr. Comey, published in The New York Times and The Washington Post in 2017, that mentioned the Russian government document, according to the people familiar with the investigation. Hackers working for Dutch intelligence officials obtained the document and provided it to the F.B.I., and both its existence and the collection of it were highly classified secrets, the people said.

The Times knows this bc it got a visit from the FBI wanting to check out some factual data since Comey identitified their sauces.

I think the DOJ is doing more than googling the fricking articles. Then of course the NYT gonna NYT and says this

Mr. Trump has repeatedly pressured the Justice Department to investigate his perceived enemies. In 2018, he told the White House counsel at the time, Donald F. McGahn II, to prosecute Mrs. Clinton and Mr. Comey. Mr. McGahn refused, telling the president that he did not have the authority to order investigations and that doing so could prompt abuse-of-power accusations. Mr. Trump had also discussed the appointment of a second special counsel to conduct the investigations he sought.

I’m sorry. These dumbasses will never, ever get the memo. The PRESIDENT runs the Justice Dept. being a former Presidential Candidate or a former POS employee of the Executive Branch doesn’t immunize you from criminal investigations. Especially when you do dumb shite like admitting to crimes when you testify to Congress.

I hate the media
