Comey broke the law - undisputed. What does intent have to do with it?

I would think that his actions in releasing the memo would verify intent. Why not let a jury decide?

Because if the jury lets him off...it just takes one...it will be a massive political victory for the Deep State and Left. And likely it would then taint everything that might happen after as a “witch hunt.”

They can’t afford to come out of the box with a loss. When they go after these people it has to be substantial and it has to be iron-clad.

That’s 16, without another set of parentheses.

8*.5*4 = 16

I disagree for this reason: even if they couldn’t “get him” (a conviction) they must begin indicting these people & force them to burn some wealth just as they did to all of Trump’s people.


As pointed out, it’s not like it was the only case against Comey. It was merely one of the weakest ones.

You’re right. They need to start rolling them up, but not with the weakest cases against a given individual.

Yep. Parenthetical first.

8/1 * 1/2 * (2+2)/1

and then numerator as a set, and denominators as a set.

8 * .5 * 4 = 16

If you don’t do it that way, then you can’t properly solve for the equation as a whole.

Yep, I agree. Gotta be patient. The Swamp would’ve loved for Barr to open on a technicality against Comey. It instantly would have soured public opinion.

This was a landmine avoided IMO.

It is also true that you can’t produce a baby in one month by impregnating 9 women!

The decision not to prosecute former FBI Director James Comey over his deliberate leaks to the media isn’t a sign of weakness or lack of will, but of the professionalism and well-reasoned restraint of President Trump’s Department of Justice.

I trust DIGENOVA ... if it’s ok with him - it’s ok with me..

This is the idiotic sheeple behavior that the GOP thrives on.

Normalcy bias.

The basic DC Swamp assumption is that public officials( elite nobility ) should be held to a lower standard than the public at large. Shouldn't the opposite be true?

Public officials seem to get the benefit of the doubt is all cases but the public is assumed guilty.

Oh and letting this douche was off the hook isn’t a victory? Where did you learn logic?

Don't by his BS. This was about as iron clad as you can get.

Scott from the Left Coast = RINO.

No, 16. Over a hundred years ago it would have been 1 but “modern” math says 16. You can check it out here: https://educationtrick.com/2019/07/31/what-is-8%C3%B7222-the-correct-answer-explained/

Meanwhile, even “our” media (Fox) has been pushing “RUSSIA!!” And “Mueller!” 24/7 for three years instead of #FusionCollusion. I understand what you are saying but you IMHO are missing a really big part of the picture. Eventually people will have enough of being gaslit by the Brown Shirt Media, or they won’t.
