‘Massive scandal’: Ex-DOJ spokesman says Reince Preibus must resign after calling FBI about Russia
RawStory ^ | February 24, 2017 | Brad Reed

Posted on 02/24/2017 8:29:12 AM PST by granada

A former spokesman for the Department of Justice says that White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus must resign in the wake of revelations that he had called the FBI to ask them to publicly deny a story about the Trump campaign’s contacts with Russian intelligence officials.

Appearing on Chris Hayes’s show on MSNBC, ex-DOJ spokesman Matthew Miller said that anyone in the Obama administration would have been fired instantly for doing anything close to what Priebus did.

“Appearing on Chris Hayes’s show on MSNBC”

Well, that nullifies the whole premise right there. ..........Sometimes I wonder if we should even discuss things that are said on msnbc.

Mr. Miller, explain again what actions were taken against the Second IN command at the FBI when he met with targets of the Clinton Email Scandal in a social meeting?

How about the actions taken against Loretta Lynch for meeting with Bill Clinton on an airplane while Hillary was being investigated?

FUMM!

When did Low Retta, the Lyncher, get fired for secret talks with Slick?

I think I missed that.

As opposed to ordering the FBI to ignore Hillary Clinton perjury?

At some point soon, all of these degenerate bastards that lie just to cause trouble and overthrow President Trump need to be charged with sedition and thrown in prison for a few years.

This has to stop.

Anybody from the Obama DoJ commenting on impropriety is ludicrous.

I hope Reince has enough backing to just ignore this static.
The Dems would not pay it any attention.
Do not fall on your sword for this one, Reince.
Do have your office and phones checked for bugs.

FBI: “These leaked media stories are false.”
Reince: “Well, why don’t you tell them?”
FBI: “No, that would be leaking.”
Reince: “Oh, OK.”

The media would sure love for this to be illegal.
Even suggesting that their lies should be countered is a danger to them.

Listening to this guy you’d get the idea Obama would have fired someone for selling guns to Mexican thugs.

Clearly that didn’t happen at the CIA during Benghazi, the IRS during the Tea Party scandal, the justice department during the airport meeting with Clinton or the fast and furious gun scandal. In fact I don’t remember anyone getting fired from the Obama administration.

Anybody remember anybody in Obama's DoJ being fired? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

Well from what I have read on the news feeds I read:

They are after Ivanka, Reince, Bannon, Conway, Miller, Pence, Trump, Melania, Barron, Don Jr and family, Eric and family, NRA, A.G. Sessions, (notice they have left the Gens. alone) Tillerson...

That's just from a brief scan of news this morning...

Good luck with getting 63 million Trump Supporters changing their minds...

Laughable.

But the good part is that this line of attack and faux outrage is going to get so old so fast ...

I hope they keep it up.
