investigation into links between mr. trump’s associates and russia.. mr. comey wrote the memo detailing his conversation with the president immediately after the meeting, which took place the day after mr. flynn resigned, according to two people who read the memo.

Comey was building a case about Trump interfering with an ongoing FBI investigation.

Then it wouldn't be leaked, it would have been more serious

Comey was seeking to preserve the Russia Investigation and did not want to bias his agents.

Same, doesn't matter, if it was an obstruction of justice, he would have had to have done something more serious about it, not wrote himself a memo that got leaked 3 months later

Comey felt his words alone were not sufficient to bring charges against the President of the United States.

Agreed

Comey was considering rolling a Obstruction of Justice charge in with the Russian Investigation.

Same as the above two answers, it would have been handled much differently. Also wouldn't leaking case material in an obstruction case put the leaker in a very dangerous position??

BOHM I have no idea who you are talking about, the expert from the Comey testimony is all over the internet, chose whatever maniac you want to try and associate me with, I have no idea who you are talking about. If he tweeted about I am sure he is not the only one... idiot

I don't think so, he could have just stopped there, at not in my experience, but he elaborated.

Because it would be a big deal to tell the FBI to stop doing something that -- without an appropriate purpose. I mean where oftentimes they give us opinions that we don't see a case there and so you ought to stop investing resources in it. But I'm talking about a situation where we were told to stop something for a political reason, that would be a very big deal. It's not happened in my experience.

IF the Memo exists, and IF Comey really did think it was a big deal, he has boxed himself in for not doing anything about it.

Do you think this part is confined to the DOJ?

But I'm talking about a situation where we were told to stop something for a political reason, that would be a very big deal.

There are only two outcomes, 1. it doesn't exist, or 2. it does, and Comey lied and didn't do anything about until after he got fired. Just think about it.

It will be interesting to hear him testify and to see the memo. I feel the actual tone of the supposed leak still doesn't amount to "intent", but the damage may be done either way and Trump may be in hot water.

I could see Comey testifying, saying it happened, but he did not take it as Trump trying to interfere. then we are back at square one and all this hype was for nothing.

Coded Logic, I can debate with you, and others, but some I really don't feel like its a debate, so I don't care about debate rules if someone is an idiot, I'd like to let them know lol. Like BOHM and Spoletta

But I digress, the person at biggest risk of getting screwed here is Comey, and I actually think an impeachment could cause more problems in this country at this moment than Trump currently is causing in all honesty.

Comey is potentially the most at risk

If the memo doesn't exist, the source lied
If it does exist Comey lied UNDER OATH

Which one do you spaz's want most? lol

Also all you armchair lawyers here, what about this

Under the law, Comey is required to immediately inform the Department of Justice of any attempt to obstruct justice by any person, even the President of the United States. Failure to do so would result in criminal charges against Comey. (18 USC 4 and 28 USC 1361) He would also, upon sufficient proof, lose his license to practice law.

Obstruction requires what’s called “specific intent” to interfere with a criminal case. Now I personally (not because I think Trump is such a great guy) don't think you could legally establish he did this, but hey that's just me. Trump's vague language doesn't amount to him sliding a briefcase of money across a table and saying "make this go away".

Comey said under oath that Trump did not ask him to halt any investigation - 5/8/17

anyone remember that? no? selective memory?

And you dumbasses can't keep comparing this to the treatment Killary got for Benghazi, comey did not put her under oath, and there is ZERO transcript of her interview with Comey, not even a Memo lol. Idiots

The only thing ironic is your militant support of this man. You are just like all delusional JWs, who defend the organization through thick and thin, despite the obvious flaws,

Not really, I have no problem saying what I feel is wrong with Trump, same with any politician. The cult-like fervor is a product of the hard left these days, I am not a republican, I don't belong to the trump party. It takes a lot more balls these days to tell everyone they are overreacting than to just go along with the noise. If he has done something worthy of impeachment or worse it will happen, I am just not going to join you and swaths of brainwashed idiots in accusing him of everything that comes along before the facts are known. Now, who is acting like a JW? Are you in or out? Did you vote?

It's funny simply for defending an individual on an unfounded accusation I am the brainwashed one. Trump does stupid shit all the time, I can agree to that, a lot of it was this week. But as far as his guilt, like I already said, jumping to conclusion by you and all your trigger buddies has to lead to some people looking like jackasses (see below). I just choose to wait until all the facts are in. That doesn't make him innocent, it just makes me rational. I can be outraged too, I will just save it for more compelte evidence if you don't mind

Lets not follow the crowd and get ahead of ourselves lest we end up looking like idiots

Spoletta, I won't apologize for being patriotic about the certain things. I am an American citizen, I know several that have served and sacrificed a great deal. It matters to me so f-ck off! Whether it's Obama or Trump or whoever is president, as long as the principles of our constitution are still intact I do believe in the exceptionalism of this country. I have experienced some of the nonsense that comes with America, paying too much for school and healthcare, but I also believe as Obama said this country zigs and zags but it's always going forward. So yes, I give a damn about American lives lost, ESPECIALLY of those fighting to protect our values and freedoms. Sorry there is no middle finger emoji on here, you'll just have to accept the thumbs down
