Comey messed up on numerous occasions, but is too proud to admit it. Thanks again for helping the Orange Menace take office, Jim.

I don’t need a public apology from those who defamed me, but a quick message with a “sorry we lied about you” would be nice.

Don’t hang by the neck, waiting for it, Jim.

The corrupt DoJ does NOT want Comey on the witness stand.

And I’m starting to think that IG Horowitz my be a rank careerist.

Given how corrupted the DOJ has become, this is like a nymphomaniac calling a stripper “immoral.”

Dear Mr. Comey,

The man you deliberately helped install in the White House is going to see you are punished for regretting your earlier help.

I have no pity for you; you may reap what you have sown.

Sincerely,
The Arc of Universal Justice

When does he apologize or someone come after him for speaking on approximately October 28, 2016 about HRC’s emails and sending at least three states into moron’s column.

So when can we expect a DOJ report on the conduct of the FBI New York office during 2016?

Never? Cool, thought so.

The IG is almost certainly right. Comey is no saint.

On the other hand, the idea of retroactively classifying documents after they are out in public is loony. And penalizing someone for not retroactively keeping secret what was not secret when it was revealed is even loonier.

It sure is. Just ask Hillary.

Dear Jim,
Thank you for inappropriately informing the US electorate of the investigation into HRC’s emails, but NOT informing the same electorate of an on-going FBI counterintelligence operation against the Trump campaign.

Sincerely,
America

You betcha this is under a headline screaming “BOMBSHELL!!!”:

Again: FUCK. HOROWITZ.

And yes, there’s no mention of Comey being cleared by the report on the classified info and yes, Faux News has GOPers on crowing about predictions that Comey will now be indicted soon…and that if he is not, it’s only because something something big excuse.

Total quality dipshittery.

Just think if they had known of all the government “Lighthouse For The Blind” government cheap ball point pens he had in his desk drawer at home.

Comey’s no saint and caused us a hell of a lot of trouble, but I know a political hit job when I see it.

Wait, what? Bill Barr’s Justice Dept. ruled against Comey? What a shock, said no-one anywhere.

Sounds like they’re trying to build up the equivalent of jaywalking into a class 1 felony. At least that’s what Trump will be tweeting any moment now.

I think if you looked at anyone in law enforcement with a high powered magnifying lens, you’ll find something. Comey’s done some very regrettable things, but to Hillary, not Donald.
