Former FBI Director James Comey's written statement, which was released in advance of his Thursday testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee, does not provide evidence that President Trump committed obstruction of justice or any other crime. Indeed it strongly suggests that even under the broadest reasonable definition of obstruction, no such crime was committed.
The crucial conversation occurred in the Oval Office on February 14 between the president and the then director. According to Comey's contemporaneous memo, the president expressed his opinion that General Flynn "is a good guy." Comey replied: "He is a good guy."
The president said the following: "I hope you can see your way clear to letting this thing go.”
...
The president can, as a matter of constitutional law, direct the attorney general, and his subordinate, the Director of the FBI, tell them what to do, whom to prosecute and whom not to prosecute. Indeed, the president has the constitutional authority to stop the investigation of any person by simply pardoning that person.

Oh well, no reason to stop the witch hunt now.
Oh not according to Pencil Dick Schiff.
Or is it Dick Neck Schiff?
Er whichever.
The more time we spend on this crap, the less time we have to pass our agenda. The institution wins again.
comey- the weasel that he is, left the door open by stating, when asked if he felt pressured by trump saying he was hopeful that it would be dropped, said “No not BY THOSE WORDS I didn’t feel pressured”- intimating that he ‘felt pressured by soemthign else’ perhaps body language or innuendo or something-
The dems WILL jump all over this claiming that comey felt threatened even though ttrump never came right out and threatened him in so many words
“Oh well, no reason to stop the witch hunt now.”
Yes, absolutely. The Dems like, then hate, then hate more, then like, now like, but may well switch back to hating Comey.
Can't the Demorats have their temper tantrum on their dime? Does everything have to be tax payer money?
The Democrat Party has taken this sore loser tantrum way too far.
“The more time we spend on this crap, the less time we have to pass our agenda. The institution wins again.”
No one said tyrants give up their power easily.
How does this help to feed a hungry child?
Yeah Comey’s feelings don’t translate to obstruction of Justice on the Flynn issue. It’s admitted President Trump’s words did not I dictate anything to Comey.
“No evidence?? NO EVIDENCE?? What more proof do we need that Trump is guilty!” -MSNBC, CNN, ABC, CBS, etc....
Run Hillary Run! Also, I want Hillary to run in 2020 (if she even lives that long).
It fills the emotional needs of the spoiled brat demorats! The demorats are spoiled, little children and their emotion..."hunger" is filled by the colossal waste of taxpayer money this Comey Island circus provides. In other words this draining of taxpayer funds fills the emotional needs of the spoiled brat, childlike demorats in their rage and paranoia over the fact that Hildabeast had lost the election.
There is no case, but the Libtards will continue to lie, smear, exaggerate, and fabricate.
That is what they do.
Actually, Trump is getting things done quite well.
This is a great way for dems to drain and waste all of their energy on something worthless.
And keep looking stupid in the eyes of the voters for the next four years.
Trump is such a wild card, that his opponents really don’t know how to attack him. He just gets stronger with each attack.
Oh, no! If they did kill moose and squirrel, there is only one form of retaliation: Nuke them!!!!
Not sure who "them" is, so we'll have to have at least another 3 years of Senate committee hearings to figure it out.
