Notably, only for obstruction and making a false statement, not threatening the President.

And the reality is that, no matter the outcome, these charges will forever be tainted by the blatant political influence, with the President specifically naming targets that he wanted the AG to file charges against, proclaiming them guilty, and then firing the US Attorney for the relevant district (who he himself had appointed) because he said there wasn't a case and replacing him with his own personal attorney. This is legitimate Banana Republic stuff.

From what I read yesterday. That Trump hired a new attorney Lindsey Halligan. Because Erik S. Siebert because she wouldn't falsely indicate James Comey. Which means , that someone is breaking the law for Trump.

Regardless there is evidence that Comey lied about telling a subordinate to leak to the press and now it's came out that he met with Obama in 2016 and discussed Clinton's plans to accuse Trump of collusion with Russia.

What evidence is that? The subordinate, the Deputy Director at the time Andy McCabe, has already stated clearly that *he* did the "leaking". McCabe had the authority to talk to the press.

We will see where it goes. Could be that the auto-pen missed a pardon.

Is the evidence on the Fox news channel or another right wing forum , or right wing outlet and Trump .That doesn't tell the true. I'm not on the Republican favor, because that's impossible, for Republicans and most people to behave according to God's word. And I believe that you have been lied to.

Was it “banana republic stuff” when certain DA’s ran for office with the promise to “get Trump”?

OnoraboutSeptember30,2020,intheEasternDistrictofVirginia,thedefendant,JAMES B.COMEYJR.,didwillfullyandknowinglymakeamateriallyfalse,Fictitious,and fraudulent statement in a matter within the jurisdiction of the legislative branch of the Government of the United Stales, by falsely stating to a U.S. Senator during a Senate Judiciaiy Committee hearing that he, JAMES B. COMEY JR., had not “authorized someone else at the FBI to be an anonymous source in news reports" regarding an FBI investigationconcerningPERSON 1.
2.Thatstatementwasfalse,because,asJAMESB.COMEYJR.thenandthereknew,hein facthadauthorizedPERSON 3toserveasananonymoussourceinnewsreportsregarding anFBIinvestigationconeerningPERSON 1.

As I understand it, person 3 was Andrew McCabe, who says that *after* he leaked something to the press, he told Comey about it. That does not sound like Comey authorizing McCabe to leak something. Comey's and McCabe's stories differ, but neither version has Comey authorizing anything. McCabe said he told Comey that he-McCabe authorized it; Comey says he doesn't remember that. And the OIG believed Comey and thought McCabe was lying.

On October 30, 2016, Wall Street Journal reporter Devlin Barrett wrote an article [that Hillary Clinton [person 1] was under investigation, which was not publicly known until this leak.]

The Office of Inspector General interviewed McCabe several times and concluded in its report that “McCabe lacked candor when he stated that he told Comey on October 31, 2016, that he had authorized the disclosure to the WSJ.”

In his report, Michael Horowitz, the former DOJ inspector general, concluded that Comey was telling the truth and McCabe was lying.

Comey told [the OIG] that, prior to the article’s publication, he did not have any discussions with McCabe regarding disclosure of the August 12 PADAG call.

According to Comey, he discussed the issue with McCabe after the article was published, and at that time McCabe “definitely did not tell me that he authorized” the disclosure of the PADAG call. Comey said that McCabe gave him the exact opposite impression:
When asked by the OIG about whether he would have approved the disclosure about the PADAG call to the WSJ, Comey stated: “o just to make sure there’s no fuzz on it, I did not authorize this. I would not have authorized this. If someone says that I did, then we ought to have another conversation because I, it doesn’t make a lot of sense to me.”

Click to expand...

For what it’s worth, the OIG report concluded, “McCabe did not tell Comey on or around October 31 (or at any other time) that he (McCabe) had authorized the disclosure of information about the CF Investigation to the WSJ. Had McCabe done so, we believe that Comey would have objected to the disclosure.”

The US attorney to which you refer should have recused himself so Trump did it for him. Said attorneys wife’s father was the Godfather to Comey’s daughter. I bet you will never hear that fact on MSNBC. This deep state attorney was actively working to protect Comey which was not in his job description. More indictments to come enjoy the show.

Snort. Why ever would Trump have nominated Comey's daughter's Godfather's daughter's husband to the position in the first place?

Maybe someone didn’t do their due diligence. Deep state rats do a pretty good job of hiding themselves.

Ah c'mon. Only a little more effort and you could have got to Kevin Bacon.

My Father of The Bride speech, talking directly to my daughter's new mother in law: 'And you can drop this into conversation with someone at any point (she had a reputation as a name dropper). You can now tell them that your son's wife's mother's mothers' sister's daughter's husband's mother's sister's daughter's husband's father was...Kirk Douglas (the guy who married my wife's cousin is a cousin to Catherine Zeta-Jones).

Nobody who was there on the day can now watch Spartacus without saying 'Hey, I was at this wedding one time...'

Kirk Douglas and I both have a Bacon number of 2 (if we stretch the rules a bit), so my Douglas number is no more than 4.
