White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders went after FBI Director James Comey after he delivered the second round of testimony on Capitol Hill Monday, in an evening tweet.

Comey’s testimony marks the second time in recent weeks he has appeared before joint House committees to investigate his decision-making process and knowledge of investigations ranging from former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server to the Trump 2016 campaign.

Comey has proved over and over again that he had no business being FBI director. Almost no integrity. Highly partisan, easily manipulated. Big mouth. Out of control ego.

The doctored up and tardy Form 302 is the best evidence yet that McCabe, Comey, Rosenweasel, Brennan et al conspired in McCabe’s declaration that “...first we F Flynn, then we F Trump....”.

You still believe in the myth of a silent majority in the FBI that is poised to do the right thing? I used to think that too.

How can anyone believe a proven liar and protected perjurer just because he is, again, under oath?

McCabe has been accused of misleading an inspector general investigation about leaking information to the press about the Hillary Clinton investigation. As legal scholar Jonathan Turley notes, “that could be viewed as incriminating fired FBI director James Comey, not just in leaking sensitive information but also in lying to Congress.”

FISA Application: In a letter to the Justice Department’s Inspector General, Sen. Chuck Grassley and Lindsey Graham say information Comey provided members of the Judiciary Committee in a private interview regarding the FISA application to spy on former Trump campaign official Carter Page was contradicted by the applications themselves.

Trump Dossier: Comey testified that he briefed Trump about the salacious “dossier” before Trump was inaugurated because he’d learned that the media were about to report on it. But it’s more likely that Comey briefed Trump for the express purpose of getting its embarrassing content out into the public. Since, as soon as that meeting was over, it leaked to the press. As Graham and Grassley note in their IG letter, the press wasn’t covering the dossier before that briefing because they considered it unverified. But the mere fact that Trump had been briefed on it instantly made it newsworthy. “CNN only broke the story on the dossier because Mr. Comey briefed the President-Elect about it,” they note. In other words, it’s far more likely that Comey lied about why he briefed Trump, a briefing that just happened to get the entire Russia scandal story rolling in the press.

Trump Memos: Comey repeatedly asserted that none of the memos he wrote about his interactions with Trump contained any classified information. That matters because Comey took these memos with him after he got fired by Trump, in violation of FBI rules. Comey then shared some of the memos with a friend, who leaked them to the press. Despite Comey’s claims, however, the Hill reported that four of the seven memos did, in fact, contain classified information. So it’s highly likely that Comey shared classified information.

Finally, there’s the claim Comey made when he issued his statement exonerating Clinton that “no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case.” That, too, was not entirely true. As we noted in this space in October 2016, “career agents and attorneys on the case unanimously believed the Democratic presidential nominee should have been charged.”

What’s more, a key term in Comey’s final statement was changed from earlier drafts from “grossly negligent” to “extremely careless.” The difference was critical, because gross negligence is specifically listed as a prosecutable offense when it comes to mishandling classified material, even if there was no intent to do wrong.

And this is just part of it. So how can this guy be expected to be believable?

After Melania, Sarah Sanders is the president’s most valuable ally. Otherwise, he seems to be surrounded by trimmers and schemers.

Y’all ARE aware that Comey was a political appointee … never served as an FBI Agent.
