And the same could be said of the director of the FBI.
I wouldnât exactly call him a crook, but a corrupt political hack and world-class hypocrite? Absolutely!
Nah, itâs much simpler than that. Comey is a mole for the Russians.
With something like this? I know, itâs a turbine and not a screw, but Iâll bet he could be shafted to the wall with enough force applied.
Trump and Comey have far outrun Nixon and Hoover alreadyâsay what you will about N&H, at least they werenât actively working for the Russians.
That is so true - this is the first time in our history that weâve had the president and the head of the FBI in the pocket of our adversary.
Politico has one quote from Angus.
âWeâre just discussing how weâre going to organize the investigation,â Sen. Angus King (I-Maine) said as he entered the earlier meeting.
The addition of Schumer means itâs a step up from a procedural meeting, but this doesnât look like âthe briefingâ weâre all looking for. So far the website has no closed or open hearings scheduled though it looks like they meet regularly on Tuesday and Thursday.
These are the Senators on the committee:
Senate Intelligence Committee
Republicans
Richard Burr (R-NC), Chairman
James Risch (R-IA)
Marco Rubio (R-FL)
Susan Collins (R-ME)
Roy Blunt (R-MO)
James Lankford (R-OK)
Tom Cotton (R-AR)
John Cornyn (R-TX)
Democrats
Mark Warner (D-VA), Vice Chairman
Dianne Feinstein (D-CA)
Ron Wyden (D-OR)
Martin Heinrich (D-NM)
Angus King (I-ME)
Joe Manchin (D-WV)
Kamala Harris (D-CA)
Trump recently invited Rubio to dinner. Did he force him to eat meatloaf? Big mistake. Yuge.
No all I could find is a basic quote from King about the meeting being a scheduling meeting.
âWeâre just discussing how weâre going to organize the investigation,â Sen. Angus King (I-Maine) said as he entered the earlier meeting.

But look to the members to start talking over the weekend. So far the SIC is all we got. The house is going to nothing, McConnell is probably going to be a coward and not allow a select committee to hold public hearings. This one is the only game in town.
And now the Attorney General tooâŚ(Sorry)âŚ
We have to hope for a crisis of conscience with Comey. I still believe Trump will be taken down. He isnât as useful to the GOP as he was before the election. Not to mention heâs taking a flamethrower to their partyâs future every day.
Only Trump could manage to NOT be happy he stole/won what he supposedly wanted all along. Heâs still re-living the election. What a damaged shitbird he is.
Comey has made a CAREER out of investigating the Clintons, going all the way back to 1993 and the bullshit âWhitewaterâ investigations. He was in on ALL of them and it never amounted to anything.
He was NEVER able to âget themâ on ANYTHING and it has eaten at him for DECADES.
He finally got his chance for revenge in late Oct 2016 and he took it.
Is he also compromised by the Russians? I doubt it, he just gave in to his decades of frustration when the NY FBI office dangled the Weiner Emails in front of him and the frustration and hatred of the Clintons coupled with the thought of having his career in the hands of someone he has been hounding for 25 years pushed him into a terrible decision.
Now he has to live with it and hang on for dear life as the Trump Train careens out of control.
Now remember, Mr. Comey, it is now your solemn duty to send a memo to the committee about everything you or the FBI finds that might even be remotely relevant to this matter. Even if youâve never seen it, have no idea what itâs about, or if it has anything to do with anything at all. You MUST send memos alerting everyone to your suspicions. Just in case.
heâs as dishonest as you get.
I donât care what any American citizenâs opinion of Comey is. Can we all agree he is a bad partisan lying, amoral piece of shit. Comey would pimp out the Statue of Liberty if he could just find the âjohnsâ.
When the rubber hits the road, conservativesâ conscience always loses. Youâre seeing it nowâŚwhat else do you need? We have a President who is colluding with a foreign nation hostile to the US, while this paragon of âpatriotismâ and pillar of Hearland ethicsâŚis looking the other way.
Never again let a conservative try and take the patriotic moral high ground ever, ever, ever again. Push back forcefully. Call conservative traitors. Call them âcomradeâ. Rub their noses in it. They donât get to pull the patriotism card anymore.
Every institution in the United States is corrupt from top to bottom. The starkness of it is whatâs shocking to me. Even after predicting this for a long time, itâs still fucking weird. The FBI can never again be treated as anything other than a self aware, self interested organization with broad police powers and little or no oversight.
Again, assuming there is a Presidential election in 2020, and again assuming a clean election, and again assuming the Democrats donât fuck it up, how does a Democratic President take office without assuming the FBI to be anything other than a political enemy?
A gross overstatement, which removes any credibility your comment might have had.
Thatâs what Iâve always believed about his astounding actions pre-election. He just has never come to grips with the fact that there really wasnât anything to the allegations he was chasing the Clintons about, and he grabbed at the last chance to do something to his nemesis. The idea that he could finally be considered the âwinnerâ of that years-long endeavor to take them down clouded any shred of judgment he might have had. So now he gets to go through the rest of his life (heâs relatively young) with the worst reputation imaginable. His mother should have told him to be careful what he wished for.

OMG ask him if he found more emails about Anthony Weinerâs dick! URGENT!
