Comey Fired - We've Seen this all Before

[rareboy]

For all of us old enough to remember the Nixon years...this all seems too familiar.

On the other hand...this fuck helped give us TrumpCo. so I'm delighted to see the mill of the Gods grind exceedingly fine.

...uh...I can't even...

"It is essential we find new leadership...that restores public trust and confidence," Mr Trump said.

............

The sad part is that the people he fires are usually replaced by someone equally (if not more so) incompetent.

..hopefully it will be someone who will continue the investigation of Trump and his ties to Russia.

Since he is "FBI director"
He can copy all the data into his harddrives right ??
That would worth billions is it not ??

Comey is/was competent.

So, I'm not sure what point you were trying to say.

As far as appointing people that absolutely should NOT be in the positions President Trump is hiring them for -- I generally agree.

Funny how Jeff Sessions assisted in this move when he apparently pledged to recuse himself from the investigation to Russian ties. This administration is just so fucking blatant.

I'm wondering if Comey was getting too close?

(From linked article)
Mr Trump acted on "clear recommendations" from Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.

One of the committee's top Democrats, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, said Trump called her to let her know that he'd fired Comey.

Let's see how it goes.

Or continue to investigate Shillary and Obama; don't forget them.

He probably shouldn't have stated openly that they had been investigating Trump for so long.

I was wondering what the Russians...or perhaps someone else... had on Comey? His actions and statements and timing are bizarre....and they suggest to me that there is something else at play.

 

[swerve]

I suspect that he found himself in an untenable situation and picked the best route possible.

Unfortunately, it was an untenable situation.

You realize they are using the way Comey went at Clinton as an excuse for this action, right?

 

[zoltanspawn]

Yes, this will make Trump's problems with Russia go away.

[johaninsc]

I imagine that Comey and others at the FBI were expecting this and planned accordingly..

 

[zoltanspawn]

Oh yeah, and coincidentally today:

The leaders of the Senate Intelligence Committee have sent a request to the Treasury Department's financial crimes unit for any information on President Trump and his top aides, CNN reported Tuesday.
