James Comey Finds That Being a Teenage Drama Queen Ain’t All it’s Cracked up to be
DB Daily Update ^ | David Blackmon

Posted on 04/25/2018 4:57:46 AM PDT by EyesOfTX

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends)

Tired of all this Winning yet? – President and First Lady Melania Trump hosted their first formal state dinner in honor of French President Emmanuel Macron last night, and it was by all accounts a rousing success. Even better, not one single, solitary Washington, DC-based Democrat was invited to attend, a fact that the fake reporters and fake anchors at CNN whined about endlessly. The lone Democrat in attendance was the execrable Governor of Louisiana, John Bel Edwards, I guess because of that whole Louisiana Purchase thing. Governor Edwards, a trial lawyer who is using his office to destroy the Louisiana economy, behaving like a tin pot dictator in the process, is as good a representative of his party as anyone could be.

Hey, this whole book tour plan to take down President Trump idea just is not going the way we planned it! – Late yesterday, reports began to circulate that teenage drama queen ex-FBI Director James Comey is suddenly getting a little concerned that his plan to take down a sitting president by releasing his angst-filled diaries to the public and charging $95 a pop for people to listen to him talk about how The Man done him wrong is actually boomeranging on him and exposing him further than he already was to criminal prosecution. So he’s gone out and hired himself a good criminal lawyer, a man who happens to be the godfather of Comey’s children, and a man whose name will be very familiar to some of you.

That man’s name? Patrick Fitzgerald.

Yes, friends and countrymen, the self-same Patrick Fitzgerald who spent a couple of years during the George W. Bush administration as the last “special counsel” to conduct a witch hunt against a Republican presidency. The same Patrick Fitzgerald whose only notable conviction out of that fiasco was the false conviction of Scooter Libby on a perjury trap, a conviction that President Trump reversed just days ago. That guy right there is the freaking godfather of freaking James Comey’s freaking kids.

So, here’s what a bad actor our former FBI Director happens to be: His best friend is the current special counsel and his kids’ godfather is the former special counsel and his other really good buddy is the guy who illegally appointed the current special counsel based solely on the content of Comey’s teen-angst diaries, and despite all of this, Comey still finds himself in the situation of likely facing an array of criminal charges for his actions while serving as FBI director and after he was fired.

Shortly after the release of Comey’s book I half-jokingly wrote that this whole book idea was actually just Comey’s version of Andrew McCabe’s GoFundMe effort to raise a legal defense fund. Today I’m repeating that thought, and I’m not joking. I actually now fully believe that that is what the book is all about. And the scheme as been highly successful: As of yesterday, Comey’s book had already sold 600,000 copies, proving yet again P.T. Barnum’s old adage there is indeed a sucker born every minute.

Speaking of Comey, he held a book-shilling event at the Newseum in Washington last night, and the crowd was very predictably made up mainly of fawning fake reporters eager to secure a moment of time and selfies with their hero. Also in attendance was former DNC Chairman and Clinton toady Donna Brazile, who engaged in her own efforts to fix the 2016 election by feeding debate questions to the Pantsuit Princess in advance. Birds of a feather…

If this surprises you, you need to pay closer attention. – And it gets even better with Comey. Fox News reports that the Columbia Law Professor who served as Comey’s conduit for illegally leaking his classified-information-filled memos to the New York Times was actually serving as an unpaid agent with “special status” for the FBI. I swear I do not make this stuff up.

I just love this passage from the Fox story:

Sources familiar with Richman’s status at the FBI told Fox News that he was assigned to “special projects” by Comey, and had a security clearance as well as badge access to the building. Richman’s status was the subject of a Memorandum of Understanding.

Yes, he was assigned “special projects” such as trying and failing to give Comey cover for illegally leaking classified information to the fake news media, an act for which Comey now feels the need to retain a very expensive lawyer. That kind of “special project.”

It turns out that being a 6’8″ tall, 57 year-old teenage drama queen just ain’t all it’s cracked up to be.

Just another day in you couldn’t make this stuff up if you tried America.

That is all.

Mr. Comey will soon be sharing his crack with other criminals at a federal prison, which shouldn’t bother the queer over much.

Per NBC news June 8, 2017

Richman and Comey’s ties run deep, and the pair has been friends for 30 years, the law professor told NBC News last fall.

Richman is a former federal prosecutor with the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York and has been a consultant with the Department of Justice and the Department of the Treasury, according to his Columbia biography. Among his areas of expertise are criminal adjudication and federal criminal law.

His bio also lists him as an adviser to Comey and says his “scholarly writings include more than 30 law review articles. He has offered testimony as an expert in a number of congressional hearings, and state, federal, and international criminal and civil matters.”

Richman was a vocal supporter of Comey last fall, as the FBI director revealed in October that the bureau was reviewing a new batch of emails linked to Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton that appeared to be pertinent to the earlier investigation into her use of a private server.

“I don’t think he takes glee in being contrary for its own sake,” Richman told NBC News at the time.

Richman said he’s sure that politics didn’t play a part when Comey decided to re-examine Clinton’s emails.

This professor is in good company. Nixon made Elvis a “special” unpaid FBI agent. The King got a badge too.

The Mad Hatter: Columbia U. Law Prof. Who Advised Comey That He Needed to Destroy the Village In Order to Save It* – UPDATED (His name is Daniel C. Richman.)
Beverly Mann | November 2, 2016 11:32 am

Daniel C. Richman, an adviser to Mr. Comey and a Columbia University law professor, argued that despite the backlash, Mr. Comey’s decision to inform Congress preserved the F.B.I.’s independence, which will ultimately benefit the next president. “Those arguing that the director should have remained silent until the new emails could be reviewed — even if that process lasted, or was delayed, until after the election — give too little thought to the governing that needs to happen after November,” Mr. Richman said.

“If the F.B.I. director doesn’t have the credibility to keep Congress from interfering in the bureau’s work and to assure Congress that a matter has been or is being looked into, the new administration will pay a high price.”

Seems like Daniel Richman's special status also makes him subject to the same laws and regulations concerning handling of classified information as his buddy, James Comey.

Since Patrick Fitzgerald is already covering Comey's backside, who will "Super-secret MOU consultant" Daniel Richman hire?

400,000 sold copies of the book are most likely stored in a warehouse being looked after by Top Men...Top Men.

How soon before we hear about a raid of his lawyer’s offices to find evidence of wrongdoing?

Remember, now lawyer/client confidentiality is almost a thing of the past.

It's amazing these people walk upright......lefties, Progressives, Dumbocraps are still transitioning......on the cusp of human evolution.

Still not recognizable......or acceptable.....as distinctly human.

IIRC! RIchman claimed he was Comey’s lawyer and had attorney-client privilege. With Kennedy’s hiring, is that privilege gone? Can he be deposed or called to testify?
